Start with galleries, albums, and categories

Gallery Pro is the paid edition of Gallery by BestWebSoft. It includes features for creating unlimited galleries, albums, images, and categories, then adds controls for layout, picture display, and site configuration. Add images from the WordPress media library and organize them into collections. Galleries are responsive, and setup does not require coding. The plugin supports any image file format.

Photographers, artists, bloggers, and businesses can use the collections to present images. Album layouts include Columns and Rows; Gallery Pro adds Grid and Masonry layouts for galleries.

Choose how galleries appear and sort

Set image text to appear below images or on mouse hover. Sorting settings let you control which images and galleries appear first.

• Sort images by attachment ID, image name, date, gallery order, or randomly, in ascending or descending order.
• Sort galleries by gallery ID, title, date, last modified date, comment count, author, or randomly. Choose ascending or descending order, and sort galleries within categories.

Control image viewing

Lightbox options include image size, background color, and background transparency. Helper options can add buttons and thumbnails. Add descriptions and buttons with URLs inside the lightbox, and select the target attribute for external URLs. Single-gallery pagination is also available.

Set horizontal and vertical crop positions for images. Watermarks can use text or an image, and image optimization is included. A full-size slideshow can display images from a gallery.

Configure engagement and site behavior

Add Social Like buttons for Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest, and enable comments on galleries. Albums can have descriptions. Customize the gallery entry slug and image border width and color. Configure galleries individually or apply global settings; network multisite support and configuration are included.

The Latest Galleries widget has settings for its title, button text and link, number of galleries, and hover color. A gallery categories widget can display categories as a dropdown, with gallery counts and hierarchy. Demo data can be installed or deleted, and the plugin integrates with the Slider Plugin.

Set up a gallery

In WordPress, add a gallery, then add or upload images from the media library. Arrange images and galleries with the sorting options, choose a layout, and adjust the gallery or global settings. Add descriptions, links, buttons, watermarks, or social controls as needed.

Documentation and tutorial videos are available. Gallery Pro supports multilingual and RTL websites. Its stated support policy provides priority support with a response within one business day.
