Album Gallery for Flickr Pro connects a WordPress gallery to an album through the Flickr API. Enter an API key and the ID of a publicly visible album; its photos stay hosted on Flickr instead of being re-uploaded to WordPress. The album ID is the number after /albums/ in the album address.

Place a shortcode such as [FLICGAL id=123] in a post, page, or widget area. It also works with Gutenberg and page builders such as Elementor. The plugin fetches album photos when a page loads. New photos can appear on a later load; if your site caches pages, clear the cache to see updates.

Choose a layout for the album

Pro offers responsive grid and masonry layouts. Its column options include 2, 5, 6, 8, and 10 columns. For larger collections, you can use pagination and show up to 500 images per album. Lazy loading is available, and the gallery title can be customized.

Adjust image presentation

Visitors can open images in an enlarged lightbox. Pro includes eight lightbox libraries, along with hover effects and animations. Settings let you adjust thumbnail and lightbox image sizes, thumbnail height, spacing, borders, hover color, and opacity.

Gallery options

Default settings help speed up album setup, while global gallery settings provide shared choices. Each album can also have custom CSS. The extension includes documentation and works with image title tags and alt text.
