<h4>What is Cactus Masonry Plus</h4>
<p>Cactus Masonry Plus allows you to build a responsive, efficient, and very highly customizable gallery on your WordPress website.  With this plugin you can either build a gallery of your post thumbnails or represent a WordPress gallery from a given post using our masonry layout technology.</p>
<p>This plugin is designed to be lightweight, so it doesn’t unnecessarily slow down your site.  As a result, Cactus Masonry Plus is shortcode powered, which means that no inbuilt design menu is available.  Instead, we have provided an interactive <a href="http://cactus.cloud/masonryplus/cactus-masonry-plus/shortcode-builder" rel="nofollow ugc">Shortcode Builder</a>, hosted on our website.  So, now we’re slowing down our site, not yours.</p>
<h4>Getting Started</h4>
<p>Cactus Masonry Plus is powered by shortcodes.  Shortcodes are lines of text enclosed within square brackets.  Within these brackets, you provide instructions on how the plugin should run.  As this can be quite complicated, we have provided a <a href="http://cactus.cloud/masonryplus/cactus-masonry-plus/shortcode-builder" rel="nofollow ugc">Shortcode Builder</a> to help you generate the shortcode you need, without any of the hard work.</p>
<p>Simply visit our <a href="http://cactus.cloud/masonryplus/cactus-masonry-plus/shortcode-builder" rel="nofollow ugc">Shortcode Builder</a>, select the options you want, preview the result, and copy the shortcode back onto your website.  You can place your shortcode within any post, page, or anywhere else your theme allows.  When you preview the page, you should see a working masonry gallery.</p>
<h4>Getting Help</h4>
<p>Now, we all run into problems every now and again.  You may find a bug in the plugin, have a feature request, or simply get stuck on how to set things up.  If you do, check out our <a href="http://support.cactus.cloud" rel="nofollow ugc">Support Forum</a>.  Here, you can get all the help you need to build a responsive masonry gallery for your website.</p>
<h4>Pricing</h4>
<p>It’s free!  Although, if you do like the product, and feel that it is worth it, any <a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=forum%40cactus%2ecloud&lc=AU&item_name=cactus%2ecloud&item_number=masonry&currency_code=AUD&" rel="nofollow ugc">donations</a> would be greatly appreciated… no pressure though.</p>


Cactus Masonry Plus

Hey,
I'm the author, so this is probably a bit biased.  But I can leave a review here, so why not.
Anyway, this plugin is coupled with the support site.  Essentially, this plugin is shortcode driven.  Just activate the plugin, and generate the shortcode you want on the support site.  Paste the code onto your page and your good to go.
I firmly believe that this plugin provides the fastest and most flexible masonry gallery layout available on WordPress.  If you want a beautiful masonry gallery on your site, I'd look nowhere else.
If you do have an issue or a feature request, just contact our support to get your issue resolved.
