<ul>
<li>All the contributors, translators, and people leaving comments, 
bug reports and suggestions on the official page and in the

</ul>
<h3>Plans for the next versions</h3>
sooner:
<ul>
<li>manage media tags for all selected attachments</li>
<li>audio and video preview on editing screens</li>
</ul>
later:
<ul>
<li>phpdoc all the functions</li>
<li>more detailed description for file_gallery_shortcode function 
(what can be used in ‘orderby’, what do ‘columns’ mean) for beginner programmers</li>
<li>yoxview lightbox http://www.yellow-llama.com/yoxview-gallery-wordpress-plugin/</li>
</ul>
maybe:
<ul>
<li>show attachments’ Custom Fields in the main page of Media Library (custom column)</li>
<li>media library sort by file size or picture dimensions</li>
</ul>
probably not, but who knows:
<ul>
<li>watermarking – probably in another plugin…</li>
<li>when detaching / deleting attachments, just remove them from DOM 
without refreshing the entire file gallery box, but take care of 
originals and copies</li>
</ul>

File Gallery

File Gallery extends WordPress media (attachments) capabilities 
by adding a new gallery shortcode handler with templating support 
(and much more).

Hiroaki Miyashita

Importance: 
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.
The Lightbox Gallery plugin changes the view of galleries to the lightbox.
<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>
You can also make regular images appear in a lightbox. See Faq.

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

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.
