<h3>Flexible gallery building</h3>
<p>Mixed Media Gallery Blocks provides a flexible gallery building experience for images, video, and audio. Add media items to your gallery, adjust display settings, and publish galleries using different layouts depending on your content needs.</p>
<h3>Transformable gallery layouts</h3>
<p>Galleries can be transformed between different layouts such as Masonry, Grid, Justified, and fullscreen views. This allows you to reuse the same gallery content while changing its visual presentation without rebuilding it.</p>
<h3>Responsive by design</h3>
<p>Gallery layouts are responsive by default and adapt to different screen sizes. Separate styling controls for desktop and mobile help ensure galleries remain usable and visually consistent across devices.</p>
<h3>Lightbox experience</h3>
<p>The built-in lightbox supports touch gestures, keyboard navigation, and mouse wheel controls. Users can navigate, zoom, and interact with gallery items on both desktop and mobile devices.</p>
<p>The lightbox interface is designed to be familiar and intuitive, making it easy for visitors to browse media content without leaving the page.</p>
<h3>Performance-focused</h3>
<p>The plugin is designed with performance in mind, using dynamic loading and optimized rendering to keep galleries responsive and pages lightweight.</p>
<h3>A short demo of SimpLy Gallery Blocks</h3>
<p>In this video you will see how easily you can create photo gallery using SGB Gutenberg photo gallery block.<br />

Mixed Media Gallery Blocks

I selected this plug-in to replace the default gallery block. My primary interest was a grid that would include navigation arrows and a load more button. Both of these features work well and I would recommend this plug-in.

Great plugin
