This plugin gives you the ability to use standard WordPress galleries and taxonomies to organize and reuse your images.

Let's say you're a builder and you post all your jobs on your site and include an image gallery with each post. Now, suppose you want to display all your job images on a single portfolio page. What's the easiest way to do that? Use the following:

[combine-galleries]

Suppose you build patios, decks, and enclosures. Now, suppose you want to display all your job images, grouped by job type, on a single portfolio page. Categorize your job posts (patio, deck, enclosure) and use the following:

[combine-galleries category="patio"]
[combine-galleries category="deck"]
[combine-galleries category="enclosure"]

Finally, suppose you want to create a page optimized for a specific city (let's use Raleigh). And, on that page you want to display all your Raleigh jobs grouped by type. Tag your job posts by city and use the following:

[combine-galleries category="patio" tag="raleigh"]
[combine-galleries category="deck" tag="raleigh"]
[combine-galleries category="enclosure" tag="raleigh"]

Combine-Galleries allows you to combine and display gallery images from multiple posts based on taxonomy. The combine-galleries shortcode combines and displays image galleries from posts that match the categories and/or tags you specify. You don't need to categorize or tag your images, just the posts. If you just want to display all gallery images on a single page, you don't need to categorize or tag anything.

Supports custom types. Compatible with the WordPress gallery shortcode and WordPress gallery plugins and viewers. Quickly and easily create galleries for your archive pages. See usage examples and options below...
