This simple plugin brings the WordPress gallery to a higher level by adding a nice justified image grid and a pretty lightbox.
Just install and activate the plugin. That’s all.

Create galleries as before, but enjoy the responsive layout, beautiful justified image grid and handy lightbox.

I love the native WordPress gallery. It’s easy to use and as intuitive as possible. Everything would be perfect if it were not for the column layout and lack of lightbox. Many themes display the WordPress gallery in an ugly and “no eye-catching” way. This was my inspiration to write this simple plugin.

How to use?

If you are using the block-editor on your site, simply insert the Justified Gallery block and add images. You can also transform Gallery block to Justified Gallery block.

If you are still using the Classic Editor, Justified Gallery is based on native WordPress galleries ( shortcode) and works out of the box. Create galleries as before. Read more about The WordPress Gallery
