PDF Gallery Viewer allows you to easily embed PDF galleries with live previews. It uses PDF.js to render the first page of each PDF directly in the browser, without relying on server-side libraries like Imagick. Each item includes a customizable title and a “View” button that opens the PDF in a modal viewer.
The layout is responsive and adapts from a multi-column grid to a single-column stack on smaller screens.
Key Features:
<ul>
<li>Live thumbnail of first PDF page (via PDF.js)</li>
<li>Responsive layouts (Grid, List, or Slider)</li>
<li>Modal viewer with zoom, navigation, and download</li>
<li>Gutenberg block with layout selector and drag-and-drop file integration</li>
<li>Tooltip + truncation for long titles</li>
<li>Dynamic shortcode generation by category, tag, or post</li>
<li>Sorting UI (Title / Filename / Manual drag & drop)</li>
<li>Manual ordering with FIFO/LIFO behavior for newly added items</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage</h3>
Basic usage:
[pdf_gallery url=”https://example.com/doc.pdf” title=”Document Title”]
Multiple items in a container:
[pdf_gallery_container layout=”grid”] 
[pdf_gallery url=”…” title=”…”] 
[pdf_gallery url=”…” title=”…”] 
[/pdf_gallery_container]
Sorting / ordering:
[pdf_gallery_container layout=”grid” order_by=”title” order=”asc” ui=”1″] 
… 
[/pdf_gallery_container]
Manual ordering (UI drag & drop) with FIFO/LIFO for newly added items:
[pdf_gallery_container id=”my-gallery” layout=”grid” order_by=”manual” manual_mode=”fifo” ui=”1″] 
… 
[/pdf_gallery_container]
IMPORTANT: Manual ordering is managed by admins and saved server-side (post meta) so the order is the same for all visitors. 
For reliable persistence, always set a stable id=”…” on each container (the Gutenberg block does this automatically).
Dynamic by category:
[pdf_gallery_container category=”brochures” layout=”slider”]

FooBox adds a lightbox to your WordPress site, so images are loaded in a modal or popup instead of redirecting your visitors away from your site.
Some people often refer to a lightbox as an “Image Zoom” effect. It’s really just a modal overlay or popup that showcases your images.
FooBox was the first lightbox to take responsive layout seriously. Not only does it scale images to look better on phones, but it rearranges it’s button controls to look great in both portrait or landscape orientation.
Add a modal popup to your website images with no setup. FooBox will automatically add modals to WordPress galleries, WordPress images with captions, and attachment images.
Works with most image gallery plugins, but works best with our <a href="https://fooplugins.com/foogallery-wordpress-gallery-plugin/" rel="nofollow ugc">FooGallery Gallery WordPress Plugin</a>.

Complete FooBox Asset Control
By default, FooBox lightbox includes javascript and stylesheet assets into all your pages. We do this, because we do not know if the page content contains media or not. 
If you want more control over when FooBox assets are included, you can now exclude the assets by default, by enabling a setting. Then on each page, you can choose to include them when required. 
Alternatively, you can leave the setting disabled, and then choose to exclude the FooBox assets from particular pages. A new metabox is now available when editing your pages or posts. 
This new feature was only available in the PRO version beforehand, but we feel control over your website performance is something you should not have to pay for. Enjoy!

Lightbox & Modal Popup WordPress Plugin – FooBox


it´s easy to get going right after the install! not too complex as I am needing it for "single" images to lightbox! really excellent!!!!!!


wonderful!

stops working after 7 days


FooBox works great ouf of the box (pun intended) and is well-suited for sites that need a quick image lightbox plugin that plays well with others.



The default lightbox theme provided is professionally made and well-suited for showcasing screenshots, portfolio items, photography, and more.



If you need more layout choices and compatibility with even the peskiest lightbox plugins, please check out Pro, as it's the only license I don't hesitate to renew.


FooBox is fantastic
