<h4>Hello Theme Developers!</h4>
<p>Have you ever added a Featured Image to a post and thought to yourself, “I wish I could add more than one image this way”? Well, now you can. Featured Galleries mirrors the Featured Images functionality of WordPress. The only difference is that posts get an entire gallery rather than just a single image. These galleries behave almost exactly like Featured Images, and make use of  WordPress’s built in Media Manager. Users can select images, define the order, and save the gallery, all through a simple drag-n-drop interface.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: This plugin DOES NOT HANDLE THE FRONTEND HTML CREATION. That is left for themes to handle, to allow for maximum flexibility. Featured Galleries just handles the backend/admin interface for creating featured galleries and storing them as metadata. You will need to integrate this into your theme, or use a theme with prebuilt integration.</p>
<h4>Quick Start Guide to Integrate Into Themes</h4>
<p><em>For more information, see <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub Wiki</a></em>.</p>
<p>I’ve tried to make this as intuitive as possible. Themes can integrate Featured Galleries in the same way they integrate Featured Images. Inside any template file where the gallery should appear, the theme will call the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/get_post_gallery_ids" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>get_post_gallery_ids()</code></a> function. As long as it is used inside the loop, the function doesn’t need any parameters. By default, it will return an array of image IDs.</p>
<h4>Example</h4>
<p>Set inside the Loop. This returns all images in the Featured Gallery, as an array, then loops through to display each using an HTML <code><img></code> tag.</p>
<pre><code>$galleryArray = get_post_gallery_ids(); 

foreach ( $galleryArray as $id ) {

    echo '<img src="' . wp_get_attachment_url( $id ) .'">';

}
</code></pre>
<p>You can also customize the returned value from the function to suit your needs. See the full <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/get_post_gallery_ids" rel="nofollow ugc">function documentation</a> page for details.</p>
<h4>Custom Post Types</h4>
<p>The plugin comes with a filter to easily add Featured Galleries to custom post types. See the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_post_types" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_post_types</code></a> documentation page for details.</p>
<h4>Customizing the Media Manager</h4>
<p>The media manager can be customized in sevearl ways. See the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_show_sid℮bar" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_show_sidebar</code></a> and <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_use_legacy_selection" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_use_legacy_selection</code></a> filter documentation pages for details.</p>
<h4>Want to Help?</h4>
<p>I’d love some help with internationalization. It was working at one point, but drivingralle did that code because I don’t really understand it, and I’m not sure it’s still working.</p>


Featured Galleries

So glad I've discovered this, there are so many bad sliders out there I was driven to make my own too. This plugin does all the heavy lifting for me.

Spot on

Do you like giving posts a Featured Image? Try out a Featured Gallery. It's like a Featured Images ... except as many images as you want.

<p><strong>Importance:</strong><br />
From 0.7.1, the default view changed to Colorbox due to the license regulation by the plugin directory. If you would prefer the prior Lightbox to Colorbox, you need to get the script from the setting page.</p>
<p>The Lightbox Gallery plugin changes the view of galleries to the lightbox.</p>
<ul>
<li>Lightbox display of Gallery</li>
<li>Tooltip view of caption of images </li>
<li>Displays the associated metadata with images</li>
<li>Divides Gallery into several pages</li>
<li>Extends the default Gallery options</li>
<li>Additional settings are set in the option page</li>
<li>Switch to the Highslide JS display</li>
</ul>
<p>You can also make regular images appear in a lightbox. See Faq.</p>

<h3>How to use</h3>
<p>How to use this plugin is basically the same as the way to add [gallery] which has been adopted<br />
by over WordPress 2.5. Lightbox Gallery plugin automatically converted the default view of gallery<br />
into the lightbox view. Photo captions are displayed as tooltips. Photo descriptions are displayed<br />
when the lightbox pops up.</p>
<h3>Advanced settings</h3>
<p>There are three additional options to extend the shorttag [gallery].</p>
<ul>
<li>lightboxsize</li>
</ul>
<p>The image size when the lightbox pops up. The default is medium, but you can change to full.</p>
<p>[gallery lightboxsize=”full”]</p>
<ul>
<li>meta</li>
</ul>
<p>Defines whether the exif information is displayed. The default is false.<br />
If you want to show the photo info, set true. The exif shown on the lightbox includes camera body,<br />
aperture, focal length, shutter speed, and created timestamp.</p>
<p>[gallery meta=”true”]</p>
<ul>
<li>class</li>
</ul>
<p>Adds a class attribute of the gallery. The default is <code>gallery1</code>.</p>
<p>[gallery class=”gallery2″]</p>
<ul>
<li>nofollow</li>
</ul>
<p>Adds the attribute, rel=”nofollow”. The default is false.</p>
<p>[gallery nofollow=”true”]</p>
<ul>
<li>from, num</li>
</ul>
<p>Defines from which and how many photos are displayed.<br />
If the number of photos is over that of <code>num</code>, the navigation will be shown.<br />
You can use the navigation option almost same as the <code>wp_link_pages</code> function.</p>
<p>[gallery from=”5″ num=”10″]</p>
<ul>
<li>pagenavi</li>
</ul>
<p>If you would like not to show the navigation, set <code>0</code>. The default is <code>1</code>.</p>
<p>[gallery num=”10″ pagenavi=”0″]</p>
<ul>
<li>colorbox_settings</li>
</ul>
<p>You can set the additional settings for Colorbox. See <a href="http://www.jacklmoore.com/colorbox/" rel="nofollow ugc">Colorbox official site</a>.</p>
<p>[gallery colorbox_settings=”transition:’fade’, slideshow:true”]</p>

Lightbox Gallery

Really, nothing works as expected, looks broken and counter-intuitive. 

It is beyond any definition of bad

The Lightbox Gallery plugin changes the view of galleries to the lightbox.
