Demo

A wedding photography gallery.

One wedding in four chapters: ceremony, portraits, details and the party. The couple jumps to the part they care about, and the lightbox moves through the day with arrow keys and swipes.

How to

Build it in three steps.

  1. Add a Filterable Gallery and a Gallery Filter block to the couple’s page.
  2. Tag the photos by chapter – ceremony, portraits, details, party – selecting many at once.
  3. Choose masonry or justified rows and the lightbox, then share the page, or a link straight to one chapter.

FAQ

How many photos can one gallery hold?

Hundreds. Images lazy-load at the size they are shown, so a long gallery stays fast – see the 100-photo demo.

Can I password-protect a client gallery?

Yes, with the page password WordPress already has. The gallery is a regular block on a regular page.

Do I need one gallery per chapter?

No. One gallery and one filter: each photo carries its chapter as a Gallery Category.
