Album Gallery for Photo & Video

This plugin is exactly what I want! After installation I knew it is simple and it does what I want, a gallery of albums. It looks very nice and has a lot of useful options. It is simple but has the best amount of settings in order to be easy to setup.

Simple and Efficient

So today I saw a popup with text like "This theme recommends these plugins...(some plugins listed here)". That's a lie as this theme was 100% created by me and every plugin mentioned in this popup was built by WP Life - so it goes without saying which plugin was showing me that deceptive popup. The only one I had installed by WP Life. My theme doesn't recommend any of your plugins so why are you lying? 

1 star for lying


I needed gallery albums that can be displayed on the same page, each one having it's own lightbox gallery that opens on click and contains the title.



This plugin allowed me to do this in 5 minutes.



The animations on load and hover may seem like too much, but they can be disabled in a few seconds.



Thanks for the great plugin!


Awesome album plugin!
