## Description

_[Media Tags](https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-tags/)_ is a great plugin that
allows you to add
 tags to your media – something that should come out of the box.
However, the **Media Tagz Gallery** takes it to another level by adding the ability
to pull in your photos by tag names to create a simple, yet flexible way to create
a gallery. No need for bloated image gallery plugins that just become outdated over
time.

#### Features

 * gallery display by using media tags
 * display a tag-based album using media tags – opens to a gallery page
 * generate random image (url)
 * “load more” button to load more images via ajax
 * modal popup: loads large image via ajax
 * modal displays camera meta (iso, f-stop, exposure)
 * add hyperlink to media (displays in modal)
 * Bootrap 3 html syntax ready
 * no css style – a blank canvas (with the exception of the modal style)
 * shortcodes enabled

## Screenshots

## Installation

 1. Download and install the Media Tags plugin here: _[Media Tags](https://wordpress.org/plugins/media-tags/)_
 2. Upload the Media Tagz Gallery plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/plugin-name`
    directory, or install the
     plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress

#### Template Setup

 1. Inject the modal popup via ajax: After you have installed both Media Tags and Media
    Tagz Gallery plugins, add the following code below
     the body tag but within your
    template’s header.php file:
 2. Within the root of your template, add a file named `taxomonomy-media-tags.php`.
 3. Copy the code within the `category.php` file and paste the code in the `taxonomy-
    media-tags.php` file (this is required to display albums using the Media Tags taxonomy)
 4. Within the body of the `taxonomy-media-tags.php` file, insert the code below:
 5. Upload media
 6. Add Media Tags to media: Within the Media Manager, click on an image. Click the“
    Edit more details” link. To the
     right you will see a “Media Tags” section where
    you can add tags. You can assign more than one media tag if you would like the 
    image to show in multiple “Galleries”.
