Free image gallery plugin

Portfolio Gallery is a free image gallery for WordPress so that you can display your portfolio on your website, presenting similar functions to alternatives Envira Gallery, Modula Image Gallery, and NextGEN Gallery. Your members can select various filters to apply to images, while it also shows the titles. There are various layout templates you can try depending on the effect you want to achieve.

If you’re wanting to adjust different levels, you can add animations. You can also customize the elements, such as dimensions and alignment. If you’re into CSS editing, there are some advanced customization options. 

Filter your portfolio

While WordPress provides a built-in image gallery, depending on which page builder and theme you use, it lacks some other functions. If you’re looking for advanced editing tools, Portfolio Gallery has a few extras on the table. The most prominent feature is the ability to add filters to the images so your members can change them while visiting the pages.

You can also choose what text you want to appear in the images. You can add titles, numbering, and captions. There are also special effects you can apply, such as grayscale and masonry.

Multiple layouts

You won’t have to settle for a few layouts that WordPress provides by default. While masonry is also included in Portfolio Gallery, you can change several of the attributes to create something unique to your website. There’s also an option to add a filter so that users can change the color selection. 

The Pro features

All of the basic features are free, but you’ll find several tools only available in the Pro version. Some examples include a responsive layout for desktop and mobile, unlimited filters, linking to your gallery, and loading extra portfolios. You can even alter the Light-box pop-up appearance to one of the five available styles.

Adjust your images

Portfolio Gallery lets you create stunning image galleries for your portfolios, giving you a wide selection to change between each product. What you can do depends on if you use the free or Pro version, but the former is adequate for small sites with limited portfolios.

The plugin is also SEO-friendly, which means you’ll be able to rank on search engines without too much hassle.
