Description
WordPress Gallery Plugin
NextGEN Gallery has been the industry’s standard WordPress gallery plugin since 2007 and continues to receive over 1.5 million new downloads per year. It’s easy for simple photo galleries, but powerful enough for the most demanding photographers, visual artists, and imaging professionals.
On the back end, NextGEN offers a complete WordPress gallery management system with the ability to batch upload photos, import meta data, add/delete/rearrange/sort photos, edit thumbnails, group galleries into albums, and more.
On the front end, the free version of NextGEN provides two main gallery display styles (slideshows and thumbnail galleries) and two album styles (compact and extended), all of which come with a wide array of options for controlling size, style, timing, transitions, controls, lightbox effects, and more.

- Why are my photo galleries not opening up in a lightbox after I move my site?
-
This is often due to the URL paths to the CSS and JavaScript files used by the Lightbox Effects not being changed to relevant addresses based on the new site. This article will help sort out this issue if that is the case: Why are my galleries not opening up in a lightbox?.
- Do you have documentation or tutorials?
-
Yes. See NextGEN Gallery Documentation.
- Will NextGEN Gallery work with my theme?
-
Part of what makes the NextGEN Gallery WordPress gallery plugin so popular is its flexibility – it works with the vast majority of premium and free themes, without requiring any coding.

-
Yes, you can add text or image watermarks to your gallery images.

-

- Can I add HTML to the captions?
-
Yes, caption areas are fully HMTL capable.
- Can I add an external links to galleries?
-
Since the captions are fully HTML capable, you can add external links and any other type of mark up you wish.

Reviews
Easy to use gallery
Like the way Next Gen Galleries displays, its easy to upload to and easy for the viewer to scan through.
Perfect for my needs
It does everything I need it to do as a developing photographer and is easy to learn.
Change VS review
I use this plugin for years now, almost perfect.
But I’ve juste lose all my changes while asking for a review, 3 times in a raw, so you’ll lose a few stars too. Hopefully I’ll be able to manage my gallery now.
Long lasting one of perfect WP galleries
We are using NextGEN Gallery many years and we are very happy with it
Works as expected
Great Gallery Plugin.
perfect
so good
