Pulp Gallery

Description

Pulp Gallery displays post‑attached images in a simple, touch‑friendly gallery using a single shortcode. It is fast, dependency‑free, and ideal for multi‑page scans, magazines, comics, and archival image sets.

Features include swipe navigation, keyboard support, a thumbnail strip, and an RSS‑safe fallback for feed readers.

[pulp_gallery]

This displays all image attachments for the current post.

  • thumbsize — thumbnail size (default: thumbnail)

FAQ

How do I add images to the gallery?

Edit the post, upload images via the Media Library while editing,
then save. WordPress automatically attaches those images to the
post and the shortcode displays them.

Yes. Each [pulp_gallery] shortcode displays the images attached
to the current post.

Can I change the image sizes?

Yes. Use the size and thumbsize attributes:
[pulp_gallery size=”medium” thumbsize=”thumbnail”]
Any registered WordPress image size is supported.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The gallery supports swipe and drag navigation on touch
devices.

Does it work with keyboard navigation?

Yes. Use the Left and Right arrow keys to navigate between images.

Does it work in RSS feeds?

Yes. When viewed in a feed reader, the plugin outputs a
simplified static version with medium-sized images linking to
the full image. No JavaScript or interactive elements are
included.

Does it require jQuery or any other libraries?

No. The plugin has zero external dependencies.

What post types does it support?

Any post type that supports media attachments.
