Great! Fancy Gallery plugin ads no tables to your Wordpress blog database.

Fancy Gallery is the most innovative state of the art WordPress Gallery Management tool which enables you to organize image galleries easily in your WordPress backend. Furthermore this gallery plugin adds a beautiful awesome javascript lightbox effect (touch-enabled, responsive, optimized for both mobile and desktop web browsers) to all links pointing to an image anywhere on your website. This includes images in your posts, galleries, pages, sidebar widgets and anywhere else on your website.

Lightbox behavior

All links - regardless if text or image - pointing to an image will automatically opened in a responsive lightbox. You do not need to care about any tag attributes or link classes – the plugins thinks about that for you. When using the [gallery] shortcode the images will get a "previous", "next" and a slideshow button. The gallery itself will be converted to a valid HTML5 section - even if your theme does not support HTML5 galleries yet.

Gallery shortcode

Of course you can use "exclude" and "include" parameters in your [gallery] shortcode like you already know from the traditional gallery code.

Settings

You can find the settings page in your Dashboard -> Settings -> Fancy Gallery.

Gallery Templates

To create your own gallery template you only need elementary HTML and PHP knowledge. Just start by creating a new HTML file with the following example header with the template details.

/*
Fancy Gallery Template: Template Name
Description: Your template description here.
Version: 1.0
Author: John Doe
Author URI: http://example.com
*/

You can place the template in these folders:

  1. If it is for your own website put it in /wp-content/fancy-gallery-templates.
  2. If you are a theme author just put in your theme (max one level deep).
  3. If you are a plugin developer use the "fancy_gallery_template_files" to add template files from anywhere.
  4. Absolutely not recommended: in the "templates/" folder of the plugin itself.

Please do not use the WordPress.org support forum for questions about the pro version or questions about my services!
