Hi there
You have the option to create a portfolioThis will let you organize your photos like posts in a blog.

Hi there, Please let us know what theme you’re using on the site where you want to add these Galleries. That way we’ll be better able to advise.
If you are referring to the site you’ve linked to in your post, which is using Appleton, with the changeover to Full Site Editing I’m uncertain about whether or how the Portfolio feature works, even if you enable it on your site. In the past there were themes specifically created for the Portfolio feature. https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/feature:portfolio
I’ve gone ahead and flagged your thread for Staff for their advice. Thanks for your patience.

Categories and tags can only be used on Posts or Pages – media files like images are not able to be assigned a category or tag, so you wouldn’t be able to create a single gallery that could be filtered by a category or tag like you’re envisioning.
If you choose a Portfolio theme from the link @justjennifer shared above, you can create project pages that you can use to showcase a specific category of photos you want to use as Portfolio pages can be assigned a category. Then you can create a page or menu that links to each specific photo category.
I hope that helps you get started! Let us know if you have any questions.

Hello again :)
Thank you @delfrag
Thank you @JustJennifer
I’m using the Appleton theme right now, but I’m not fixed on it, and willing to switch theme if that’s necessary.
Thank you @heroponriki
Is there any way to create it via store page and products blocks, as I have done in my old site (which I’m currently trying to move to wordpress)? You can view it over here: https://www.greenp.co/gallery
Thank you. -
Hi there,
I don’t believe there is a block that allows this feature, but I would recommend reaching out to our WooCommerce team regarding a product block that may be able to.

There may be a third-party product/plugin that has this capability, but the WooCommerce team would be best to advise of an option.
Hope this helps.
