Meow Gallery

Was working well out of the box in my Gutenberg editor, while another Gallery was giving me problems. Simple to use, but well done.

Very useful

I choose this gallery because if the plugin is abandonned, it won’t break every galleries. It’s simple to use with nice options and galleries look good.

Clean and easy gallery


After trying a few other gallery plugins (names omitted to protect the guilty), I tried out Meow Gallery. What I like about it: ease of use, slight learning curve, customizable, and fully functional. I cannot stand plugins where the free version is crippleware. That is NOT the case here. What I don't like: it isn't completely straightforward, and sometimes the image search through your media library doesn't find pictures. In the latter case, you have to search for unused items. 



Overall, I'd give it 4.5 stars. It's worth downloading and worth using. 


Easy to Use and Fully Functional

Tired of slow, bloated gallery plugins? You've earned a coffee ☺️ Polished, beautiful galleries that are blazing fast.
