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>
</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]
Dynamic by category:
[pdf_gallery_container category=”brochures” layout=”slider”]

Modal Guten Block


It does what it is supposed to do, easily configurable and I love that this is a separate plugin and not part of a collection of blocks. It keeps WordPress nice and lean.



It would be perfect if the color picker would use the regular Gutenberg color palette chooser :)

I like this plugin. I've had zero problems. It does it's job and so far has just stayed out of the way. Thank you. I wish Wordfence wasn't so harsh to plugins like this...  I got this alert:



Medium Severity Problems:* The Plugin "Modal Guten Block" appears to be abandoned (updated October 3, 2023, tested to WP 6.3.7).



Maybe this could have a version bump just so it's "compatible" with WP 6.7 or 6.8? Then Wordfence would yell less often.  


Bump to WP 6.8 for Wordfence

This plugin provides a Gutenberg Modal / Popup Block.
