• Hey Guys,

    I have been using this wonderful plugin for a number of years now. Will it be compatible with the new Gutenberg WordPress editor when WordPress version 5.0 comes out or will we have to leave the classic editor enabled in order to still use it?

    Thank you.

  • Same here! Would love to start using this with Gutenberg

    We’ve also been using this plugin for several years. Having a version ready for Gutenberg (WordPress 5.0) would be greatly appreciated.

    Merci!

    Gutenburg can be installed and activated now, as a separate plugin. Unfortunately, I cannot make this fantastic plugin work within Gutenburg. The Gutenburg plugin offers a gallery block, which is very bland and uses a new type of syntax that is not compatible with this plugin.

    There is a block for the Jetpack tiled gallery (See Here) but it apparently does not show up as an option unless the actual jetpack plugin is installed. I have tried installing the gallery within a classic WordPress editor block, but with no luck there either.

    I was able to get this plugin to work with Gutenburg, however, it has to be manually done. Placing code similar to the following in a “classic” block, an “HTML” block, or a “shortcode” block will allow this plugin to still work:

    [gallery link="file" type="rectangular" ids="6048,25869,25870,25917,31078,38067,38176,38180,38183"]

    The numbers are the WordPress ID numbers for the images. In order to get this, I first made the gallery in a gallery block, then copied the id numbers into the list manually.

    This puts the gallery into a code format that this plugin will recognize and it will automatically convert it after that.

    It’s not the most efficient method, and for large galleries will get tedious, but as a stop gap measure, it will work.
