MetaSlider Gallery – Image Gallery, Lightbox Galleries, Modal Windows
MetaSlider Gallery is the ultimate WordPress gallery plugin. You can build an image gallery. You can also show your images, videos, and slideshows in a beautiful gallery window. Plus, MetaSlider Gallery is deeply integrated with the MetaSlider Slideshow plugin so you can create stylish sliders.
The MetaSlider Gallery plugin allows you to create beautiful image galleries that can be placed anywhere on your WordPress site. You can also show a wide variety of media inside a lightbox gallery window, including these:
- Images
- Image galleries

Create stylish image galleries
MetaSlider Gallery allows you to create stylish image galleries that work with the block editor, the Classic Editor, and any page-builder. To create a new gallery, find the “Galleries” screen.
There are five layouts available for your image gallery: Grid, Masonry, Justified, Carousel, and Showcase.
- Grid: Show your images in rows and columns. Each row and column will be the same size.
- Masonry: Show the images in a grid-like layout, but this approach has a flexible placement that fills gaps left by shorter items.
- Justified: This allows each image to keep its original aspect ratio, so it won’t always be possible to fill each row edge-to-edge.
- Carousel: Show one main image at the time. The visitor can use arrows or the thumbnail navigation to browse to the next image.
- Showcase: Shows one image at a time. In this layout, the arrows and the thumbnail navigation are both underneath the image.

Show your single images in a gallery window
You can really enhance your WordPress media with gallery windows. Visitors can view your images or videos and then open them inside a modal. This can make the image or video larger and also darken the background so it’s easier to focus on the media.
MetaSlider Gallery allows you to add gallery windows to images in your WordPress post content. You can choose to automatically add the gallery window to all images, or you can do it manually via the ”Enlarge on click” setting. This works with both the block editor and the Classic Editor. You can also use this gallery window with page-builders such as Elementor, Divi, and Beaver Builder, thanks to the CSS feature.
