FAQ

The WordPress gallery works but the slideshow doesn’t appear?
  • You may have a conflict with another javascript plugin. Try to disable your plugins one by one.
  • Check that you don’t load jQuery in footer with another plugin
How to use the shortcode?

You just need to put [gallery] inside your content. More info here https://codex.wordpress.org/Gallery_Shortcode

Why the appearance of the box suddenly changed after the update?

I had to remove Fancybox from this plugin because the 2.0 version of this library is no longer under the GPL Licence.
I had to use jQuery Colorbox instead which is similar.

How can I add a custom po/mo translation file

Create your translation file from the sgfw-default.po one and replace “default” by your country code (eg. sgfw-us_US.po)
Paste the po and mo file into your wp-content/languages/plugins/ folder

You know when you’re looking for something and can’t find it? Like, you find things that do 100 times more than you want, but you can’t find the thing that just nails what you want? Enter Simple Galleria. I wanted to extend the WordPress native gallery just enough to allow users to add a gallery simply through the editor, without having to go and create a new gallery or something like that in a separate menu, but have it behave a little differently (thumbnails with scrolling large image). This is what this plugin does. Beautifully. Plus, it plays nice with CSS so you can style it up how you want it. Favorited this one.
