Hello everyone.
Let me explain. I'm currently building a site that will present images that I realize with a Smartphone (Iphoneography).
I use very sure to get the excellent theme that Tom built us, I must say that I have tested many, but this is the one I prefer, for its ease of use, versatility and also for its lightness.
For my project, I also tested several plugins gallery. Some are real gas plant, and others that might suit me pretty much are in my opinion too expensive. pay $ 80 to 100 per year for a gallery plugin, I find it is excessive. But it is true that we must also be able to pay the people who work on the software.
In short, the purpose of this opinion research is to find a gallery plugin, well built, light, responsive, efficient, and not very expensive as you pay once and for all.
besides maybe Tom would embark on the window :) Building a gallery as it did for Generatepress and add add-ons, as he knows so well make them!
If anyone has a tip on a gallery please tell me
Sorry for my bad english, thank you Google.
Thanks for reading me.

Hi Philippe,
This post might help: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/back-to-top-button-6/#post-229699
Envira looks good, but when possible I like to use core WP features.
Let me know :)
Hello Tom, and thank you for the answer.
I had of course seen the post that you put in link.
On the big screen WordPress gallery would be enough, but on Smartphone that does not suit me thumbnails are too small.
I tested Envira in paid version, which is very good but I found expensive for the use

Hi Philippe, I'm aligned with what Tom says, I I generally use native wordpress galleries with this plugin for the lightbox: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-imagelightbox/
Then, if you like to make the images bigger on mobile you just need a couple of lines of css, in my case I'm using the 3 column layout, then:
/*STYLES JUST FOR MOBILE*/
@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.gallery-columns-3 .gallery-item {
max-width: 100%;
}
}
You can see a demo for that on this page: http://ultralight.artomultiplo.net/gallery/
Please be kind, that website is right now under construction :-)
Great point, Roberto :) Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your answers,
I'm currently testing the gallery Word Press!
Philippe
Awesome :)
Hello,
I installed the CSS code so kindly give Roberto, for presentation on smartphone, but at first glance it does not work in my gallery Paris WordPress.

You need to slightly modify the code, as you're using 6 columns layout:
/*STYLES JUST FOR MOBILE*/
@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.gallery-columns-6 .gallery-item {
max-width: 100%;
}
}
:-)
Roberto thank you for your rapidity, and for code that works perfectly.
I even have the opportunity to master two colónes thumbnails on smartphone!
A small question: can you create albums with galleries inside with WordPress?
Thanks again,
Philippe
I don't think albums are do-able, WP just allows you to create galleries on specific pages.
Too bad, I bothering you last time about that.
Do you know the plugin Foo Gallery?
If so do you think it is light enough to be quick and not BUGE. It creates galleries Albums!
Thank you in advance,
Philippe
I've heard of it, but I've never tried it. Always worth a shot :)
