Lightbox
A lightbox that carries the whole story
Camera, lens, aperture, shutter speed, ISO and capture time read straight from the file. Visitors can leave comments, reply and like — or you can keep it to logged-in users only.

#1 WordPress Gallery Plugin
Your Instagram feed and your media library, in the same gallery
Pull posts from six social platforms, mix them with images from WordPress, and lay them out in eighteen styles. One plugin, one builder, one shortcode.
View Style
Connect the accounts you already post to
- Learn More
Instagram Feed
Connect a business or creator account and pull posts, reels and hashtags straight into a gallery. New posts appear on your site.
- Learn More
Facebook Feed
Show photos from a Page's timeline or a single album. The gallery refreshes on a schedule, so you post once and it lands twice.
- Coming soonLearn More
YouTube
Point the gallery at a channel or a playlist and it builds a thumbnail wall that opens each video in the lightbox.
- Coming soonLearn More
X/Twitter
Pull the images from a timeline or a search and lay them out like any other gallery — no embedded widget, no third-party script.
- Coming soonLearn More
TikTok
Turn a creator profile into a covers wall. Each tile opens the clip full screen, and the feed keeps itself current.
- Coming soonLearn More
Dribbble
Show your shots exactly as you publish them. Ideal for a portfolio page that should never go stale between redesigns.
- Coming soonLearn More
Google Drive
Point a gallery at a Drive folder and build from it directly. Drop a new photo in the folder and it appears on your site.
- Coming soonLearn More
Dropbox
Same for Dropbox: pick a folder once and every upload your team makes is one refresh away from being published.
One plugin instead of seven
Most sites run a feed plugin for Instagram, a gallery plugin for the media library, and a lightbox plugin to make either one clickable. Three subscriptions, three settings screens, three sets of CSS fighting each other.
Eighteen ways to arrange the same images
Pick a view style and the gallery re-lays itself. Automatic reads each image's aspect ratio and decides for you; the rest give you exact control.

Analytics
See which images people actually open
Every gallery view, image view, lightbox open, click and download is recorded and rolled up daily. Find your best-performing images and your best-performing galleries without adding another tracking script.
Responsive
Different columns for different screens
Set columns, spacing, row height, alignment and border separately for desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile. Switch between them in the builder and see each one as your visitors will.
Embed anywhere
Place a gallery, then find it again later
Use the Gutenberg block, the Elementor widget, the classic editor button, or paste the shortcode anywhere. The plugin keeps a list of every page each gallery appears on, so you always know what a change will affect.
Access control
Not every gallery is for everyone
Put a password on a gallery, or assign it to specific WordPress users so it only appears for them. Turn on image protection to block right-click and dragging.
The details you notice on day three
The features that don't show up in a comparison table but decide whether you keep a plugin — caching, protection, metadata, and the small controls that save you an afternoon.
Lazy loading
Images load as visitors scroll, with a delay you control. A gallery of two hundred photos loads as fast as one with ten.
Cached feeds
Social responses are cached for fifteen minutes, so a busy page never burns through the limits on your connected accounts.
Gallery search
Add a search box and visitors filter a large gallery by title or caption instantly, without reloading the page around it.
Image protection
Right-click and dragging are disabled on protected galleries, which makes your photographs harder to lift from the page.
Photo metadata
The lightbox reads camera, lens, aperture, shutter and ISO straight from the file and shows them beside the image.
Comments and likes
Visitors can comment, reply and like individual images, or you can keep the whole conversation to logged-in users only.
Video and audio
Galleries handle video and audio alongside photos, with your own settings for controls, autoplay, looping and muting.
Caption sources
Pull captions from the title, caption, alt text or filename, and place them under the image or over it on hover. And in lightbox as well!
Auto-save
Switch on auto-save and the builder keeps your changes as you work, so a closed tab never costs you a settings screen.
Import and export
Export a gallery with its full configuration and import it into another site, so a layout you like travels with you.
Embed locations
Every gallery lists the pages it appears on, including Elementor layouts, so you always know what a change affects.
Clean uninstall
Nothing is deleted when you deactivate. Removing your data is a switch you turn on yourself, not a surprise later.
See What People Say About Us
Most sites run a feed plugin for Instagram, a gallery plugin for the media library, and a lightbox plugin to make either one clickable. Three subscriptions, three settings screens, three sets of CSS fighting each other.
One gallery, two sources
Our Instagram posts and the product shots in the Media Library finally sit in the same grid. No more exporting from Instagram and re-uploading every week.
Boutique ownerInstagram + Media LibraryReplaced three plugins
A feed plugin, a gallery plugin and a lightbox plugin came out in one afternoon. Fewer settings screens, and no more CSS fighting itself.
Freelance WordPress developerClient sitesThe layouts are the reason
Masonry for the portfolio, Film Strip on the homepage, Bento Grid for case studies. The same images on three very different pages, without another plugin.
Brand designerEighteen view stylesSet up in ten minutes
Connected the account, picked Masonry, pasted the shortcode. The gallery was live before the coffee went cold.
Travel bloggerInstagram feedThe lightbox keeps the caption
Visitors open a photo and still see the caption and the link back to the post. That was the one thing every other lightbox dropped.
Wedding photographerLightboxFinally know what gets opened
The click stats showed which room photos people actually enlarge, so those moved to the top of every listing page.
Holiday-let ownerGallery analyticsLooks right on phones
Four columns on desktop, two on tablets, one on phones, set once per gallery. Nobody has written a media query for a gallery since.
Agency front-end leadResponsive columnsEditors can't break it
Editors add images through the normal Media Library and the album updates itself. Nobody has asked to have the gallery fixed in months.
Agency project managerAlbums + Media LibraryWorks in both editors
The Gutenberg block on the blog and the Elementor widget on the landing pages point at the same gallery, so there is one place to update.
Marketing managerGutenberg + ElementorPrivate galleries for clients
Each proofing gallery sits behind its own password. Clients download what they want and the rest stays hidden from everyone else.
Portrait photographerAccess gates + downloadsFeeds that stay connected
The token renews on its own. The previous feed went blank every couple of months and nobody noticed until a customer did.
E-commerce store managerInstagram + FacebookBuilt for developers too
Hooks through the render path and a REST endpoint for every gallery. The same galleries feed a headless front end without a second plugin.
Full-stack developerREST API + hooks
We built WP Social Media Gallery because every site we worked on ran three plugins to show one set of photos: a feed plugin for Instagram, a gallery plugin for the media library and a lightbox to make either one clickable. One builder, one shortcode and eighteen layouts is the version of that job we always wanted to ship.

Frequently asked Questions
Most sites run a feed plugin for Instagram, a gallery plugin for the media library, and a lightbox plugin to make either one clickable. Three subscriptions, three settings screens, three sets of CSS fighting each other.
No. The plugin refreshes long-lived access tokens on a schedule and tells you in the admin if a connection needs re-authorising, so a gallery keeps serving its last successful fetch in the meantime.
No. Feeds are fetched on a schedule and cached, never on the visitor's request. Galleries render as plain responsive markup and images load at the size each device needs.
Yes. A gallery can combine the WordPress Media Library with any connected source, and you order the images however you like.
No. You connect a business or creator account through the normal login flow — the plugin handles the app registration for you.
Yes. Use the Gutenberg block, the Elementor widget, the classic editor button, or the [social_gallery] shortcode in any theme.
Your media, your site, your data.
Install from WordPress.org and have a gallery running in under two minutes. Upgrade when it starts paying for itself.
