1. I have installed the plugin. How to build my first Gallery?

Thanks for installing our plugin. The plugin dashboard should have all the necessary instructions required to build a gallery. Simply follow that.

For more detailed instructions visit our plugin documentation.

Still, Having Issues? We are just an email away. Please write to us describing your issue using the “Contact” form available under our plugin’s menu. You should receive a reply within 24 hours (except Sunday).

2. Can I show my videos in a popup, slider, playlist, or something more engaging?

Yes, you can. Kindly refer to the instructions below,

1. Popup
2. Slider
3. Playlist
4. Compact

3. Can I upload large video files using this plugin?

Sure, the plugin doesn’t apply any restriction on the uploaded file size. If you’re not able to upload large files, then it must be your server configuration that is not suitable for large file uploads. Simply write to your HOST and ask them to increase the upload file size limit.

4. Does the plugin support third-party page builders like “Elementor”, “WPBakery”, “Divi”, etc.?

Yes. Simply, generate your shortcode using the plugin’s “Shortcode Builder” and add it to your favorite page builder.

5. Is the plugin compatible with WordPress Multisite?

Yes, it is. However, do not “network-activate” the plugin. Activate it only on the subsites on which you need the gallery. This can be done under “Plugins => Add New” as the Administrator user.

6. The download button in the plugin is not working.

The download option works only on the “Self Hosted / External URL” source type. Even if the video is self-hosted, the video file must be publicly accessible to download. So, make sure that your file is publicly accessible.

Also, the videos from third-party services like “YouTube”, “Vimeo”, “Dailymotion”, or “Rumble” cannot be downloaded.
