Event Stream Gallery

A lot of effort was put into making this gallery as simple as possible and extendable.


Developer Review: Simple Gallery & Easy to use

Simple plugin to create a gallery. It also allows upload from the front-end.

Tom Fotherby

<p>This plugin changes the way the in-built WordPress Gallery is displayed to the user. The WordPress author uploads images to their pages/posts as normal and uses the usual [gallery] shortcode to display the gallery but instead of the default WordPress image gallery with rows and columns of images, the user will be shown a more fancy image gallery inspired by the <a href="http://devkick.com/lab/galleria/" rel="nofollow ugc">Galleria JQuery Image gallery</a>.</p>
<p>This plugin is rather specific and custom – it has no configurable settings other than the default WordPress gallery options. It is designed so that once set up, it is invisible to the WordPress author – they will not need to learn or do anything different from normal WordPress gallery usage. Documentation for the WordPress gallery can be found at http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/.</p>
<p>In order to be efficient, the plugin uses the WordPress in-built image scaling feature – Whenever a WordPress author uploads a image, WordPress automatically creates 3 different sizes of the image (A thumbnail size, a Medium size and a Large size). In order to avoid wasteing bandwidth by scaling the image on the front-end, this plugin uses the “thumbnail” size and the “Medium” size images. The disadvantage of this is that the default WordPress image dimensions aren’t really suitable for Galleria and <strong>will need to be altered</strong>. See the plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bitvolution-image-galleria/installation/" rel="ugc">installation instructions</a> for details.</p>
<p>Users should follow the Codex on using the <code>[gallery]</code> shortcode: https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_the_gallery_shortcode</p>
<p>Developers can learn more about the WordPress shortcode API: https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API</p>
<p>Current features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Displays one main ‘medium’ sized image and a grid of ‘thumbnail’ sized images</li>
<li>Image captioning.</li>
<li>Next/Previous links to cycle through the gallery</li>
<li>User can click on main image to see ‘full-size’ version.</li>
<li>Zero additional configuration options (plugin uses existing WordPress image options, i.e. image sizes)</li>
<li>Efficient: No front-end image resizing via CSS</li>
</ul>
<p>Current limitations:</p>
<ul>
<li>Doesn’t work “out of the box” on a default WordPress installation – requires a manual change of the default WordPress image sizes otherwise galleries aren’t formatted correctly – See <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bitvolution-image-galleria/installation/" rel="ugc">installation instructions</a>.</li>
<li>By default the gallery requires a width of 850px or more – many themes have a smaller content width so the gallery will wrap onto seperate lines and won’t look at all good.</li>
<li>No image pre-loading (nice for your server but not so snappy for your users).</li>
</ul>


Bitvolution Image Galleria

This plugin replaces the default Wordpress gallery feature with a more fancy image gallery inspired by the "Galleria" JQuery Image gallery.
