Thanks. But what is exactly the difference with regular WP gallery ?
Here’s a few:
- I originally built this as a product gallery for an e-commerce plugin so by using action hooks you have full control over the positioning of the gallery. You cannot do this elegantly with the shortcode
- You have full control over the HTML markup and styling, unlike the WP gallery. Handy for developers like me who want to fine tune
- The images open in a lightbox, as opposed to an attachment page, and adding more lightbox scripts is easy (if you are a developer)
- The ids of the images are stored in the DB against the post’s ID, so it’s easy for a developer to do more with the images, such as turn them into a slideshow etc
The usual WP gallery is fine if that’s all you need, but I find it’s handy to have a bit more control

OK, thanks for your answers.
I cant use the short code or i dont know how to use it. Could you show me the details, please
Hi Alonso,
It’s always best to start a new support ticket, as this one has been marked as resolved.
The gallery is automatically appended to the post/page content so you only need to use the shortcode if you want to manually position your gallery somewhere else within the content. In which case you simply insert [easy_image_gallery]
somewhere inside the editor.
