Plugin Description
Simple Photo Albums turns a group of native gallery shortcodes into photo albums with cover images and allows for advanced integration with scripts like Jetpack’s Carousel or Swipebox.
Usage
Wrap a group of
shortcodes with the [simple_photo_album] shortcode:
[simple_photo_album]
[/simple_photo_album]
Each gallery becomes an album and requires clicking through to see the actual gallery itself. This example will render the same as
However, there are a few attributes that may be beneficial and things really shine when paired with third-party scripts like Jetpack’s Carousel, Magnific Popup, or Swipebox — native support is included for all (select one on the Media → Settings screen).
Galleries within the album shortcode may include a gallery_link attribute to link the cover image to an arbitrary permalink when a third-party script isn’t being used:
Cover Images
By default the first image in each gallery shortcode is used as its cover image and will be included when the gallery is viewed. A manually defined cover can be passed as an additional attribute:
Covers can be removed from the galleries entirely using the exclude_covers attribute on the album shortcode:
[simple_photo_album exclude_covers="1"]
Album Display
Any display-related attributes that can be used on native gallery shortcodes can also be used on the album shortcode to modify its appearance (itemtag, icontag, captiontag, columns, size).
[simple_photo_album columns="4"]
