Auto Grid Responsive Gallery

This is a plugin that scans a folder in your server and its subfolders containing images. The subfolders will be the categories that will appear at the top, and the plugin will make a grid responsive gallery with the images.

Put the plugin in your page once and then no more coding, you only need to take care of organizing your images in folders and if you want adding thumbnails.

Important: this plugin needs PHP in order to work!

Important Announcement!

I have made a PHP script that automatically generate the thumbnails for you, so you don’t have to build them with photoshop or something! you can download it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/j7nbjqv4avl2tw5/thumbmaker.zip give it a try! it is totally free (support is not included)

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, for over a year! Glad I waited and found this. I’m using this for family photos and can now just easily add new ones without managing different resolutions or editing files.
