SSG works with the standard WordPress gallery and images (classic or Gutenberg blocks). The galleries/images are fully managed by WordPress, Story Show Gallery just displays them in full size in a full screen lightbox (WP doesn’t have a default lightbox).
Story Show Gallery is already set up for standard functionality. But you can customise it with over 50 options – set a watermark, colour theme, borders, social sharing and much more.
You can activate/deactivate Story Show Gallery whenever you want, it doesn’t make any changes to the WordPress galleries.

To enable the Story Show Gallery lightbox, set the option Link to to Media File in the WordPress gallery settings. For an image block, select Add Link from the toolbar, then select Media File option.
For developers: SSG only depends on jQuery library (which is part of the WordPress). Optionally, it loads Exifr if you want to display camera info next to your photos.
<h3>Your photos in the main role</h3>
Story Show Gallery aims to display your photos as if they were hanging in a gallery – you can configure the photo frame, choose background and there are no big, distracting arrows next to or over a photo.
On smartphones, Story Show Gallery can use the entire display (including the notch area), there are no white sidebars like in other galleries.
Full screen mode works like on You­Tube. It activa­tes after rotating a phone into landscape mode. Also is possible to start the gallery in full screen portrait or forced landscape mode.
<h3>Browsing without clicking and thinking</h3>
Scrolling is the most natural way to interact with a website. Story Show Gallery works like Facebook – as a visitor scrolls down, new images are constantly loaded.
Story Show Gallery is vertical, making it ideal for use on mobile phones. In portrait mode, visitors typically see part of the next image and scroll to see the whole image.
<h3>Brand building and social sharing</h3>
Story Show Gallery can display your logo or some text (emoji) over images. You can configure it in the SSG settings.
Social sharing icon is not put aside, it is part of the content, but subtle. A spectator’s eyes will literally crash into the sharing icon at the end of a caption or in the corner of a photo. This can be disabled in the settings.
You can deep link into the gallery to show a specific image. Just use the URL address + image name in the hashtag -> <a href="https://ssg.flor.cz/#on-the-hook" rel="nofollow ugc">ssg.Flor.cz/#On-the-hOOk</a>
<h3>Complete your photos with captions</h3>
With captions you can tell the whole story behind photos or amuse a spectator with some fun fact. Exif information can be included in captions.
Google treats captions like textual content. Especially if you don’t have a lot of text on your page, captions will help your page rank higher in Google searches.
SSG is probably the only gallery that can place each caption individually according to image size vs. screen size. It is especially important on smartphones to use the whole screen.
<h3>Some more features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Optional 3D animation of image thumbnails.</li>
<li>EXIF info in captions and EXIF listing on click</li>
<li>Support for Google analytics. Find out, how long site visitors view each photo and how many times.</li>
<li>4 visual themes</li>
<li>Optional animated transition when scrolling. It’s a combination of scrolling and fading (similar to old slide projectors).</li>
<li>Protection of photos from being copied via right click menu.</li>
<li>Optional unobtrusive cursor.</li>
</ul>

文字入りや縦長の画像など、様々な種類の画像が入り交じるサイトには、縦スクロールのこのギャラリーは最適だと思います。

However, in the case of my site, [nossg class] did not work in Internet Explorer.

とてもいいプラグインです

Hello

looks like it does not take images that are not within post content in to account.
Usual lightboxes at have at least some class that the plugin reacts to or rel attribute, that way we can let the lightbox act on places we need.

When you just want to focus on what you’re writing, the default WordPress editor can feel cluttered, with distractions surrounding your content.
Minimalist Editor turns your post editor into a digital typewriter, with nothing else left on the screen than what you’re writing.
Inspired by editors such as WriteRoom.
Works by installing the plugin and <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/support/user-manual/content/editors/distraction-free-writing/#enabling-distraction-free-writing" rel="nofollow ugc">activating Distraction Free Writing mode</a>.
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Typewriter style post editor</li>
<li>Light and dark mode</li>
<li>Sans serif typeface option</li>
</ul>

Minimalist editor

Very well executed minimal writing UI. I love Byword for Mac and this plugin brings that kind of true distraction free writing to the WordPress editor. Nice work! Featured on the iThemes Plugin Roundup for October 2018.

Excellent Minimalist UI for WP

No fuzz post editor - more typewriter, less command prompt.
