What it does
Presenting a body of work on a WordPress site can get messy when you mix photos, videos and external media. This plugin gives you one place to collect those items and display them as a tidy grid. You arrange layouts through a drag-and-drop interface, so building a portfolio page does not require writing code. The grid adjusts to the screen it is viewed on, which keeps the layout usable on desktops, tablets and smartphones.
Beyond the basic grid, you can pick from several layout styles, including masonry and justified layouts, and adjust colors, fonts, spacing and hover effects to match your site. Visitors can filter and sort items by categories, tags or custom taxonomies, and clicking an item opens it in a lightbox popup. It suits photographers, designers, agencies and anyone else who needs a clear way to present visual work.
Best for
- Photographers presenting photo galleries
- Designers and agencies displaying client work
- Creative sites mixing images with YouTube or Vimeo videos

Questions about Media Boxes Portfolio
Can I show videos in my portfolio grid, or only images?
You can include both. The plugin supports images and videos, including YouTube and Vimeo, along with other external media, so a single grid can hold photos and video clips side by side.
Do I need coding skills to build a portfolio with this plugin?
No. Layouts are built and organized through a drag-and-drop interface. Design settings such as colors, fonts, spacing and hover effects are adjusted through options rather than code.
Can visitors filter my portfolio by project type?
Yes. You can enable filtering and sorting by categories, tags or custom taxonomies. That lets visitors narrow a large portfolio down to the type of work they want to see.
