Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery


Modula give a lot in their free plugin. I use it on many sites.  It's easy to use, and includes all the features you might need in a simple gallery.  The images do have to be located in the WordPress media library.  Increasingly I want to host images outside of the media library and so may have to look for an alternative solution.   But if you're happy with the media library this is a great plugin. 


Excellent Plugin


Modula is hands down the best WordPress gallery plugin I’ve used. It’s super easy to set up, looks amazing, and loads fast without slowing down my site. I love how flexible the layouts are, and the hover effects and lightbox features add a nice touch. Plus, it works perfectly on mobile. If you need a gallery plugin that’s simple but powerful, this is the one to get.
