    Hello, simple and short question here.

    Is there any way to link the Media libary content to a page on my website? (and by doing so linking that page on the menu)
    I mean it can be static, no need to allow uploads on there, just the thumbnails which link to the main image?

    I know it might sound stupid, and yes I am new to wordpress. I have searched for this issue but came up emty.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Ak1ra,

    When you say Media library content do you mean an image? I’m not sure if I understand exactly what you’re trying to achieve. Are you trying to build an image gallery?

    Hello Fabio Fiss,

    First off all, thank you for trying to help me.
    I don’t really mean an image, how should I explain.
    I would like to have a page displaying all the content currently in my media libary, the same way the media libary displays his content at the dashboard in WordPress? (Like with the small thumbnails)

    Edit: so yes like an image gallery but automatically puts all images from media libary in there.

    I hope this helps you understand my question a bit better, if not feel free to ask more questions.

    So another way of trying to explain is: Go to the media libary in your wordpress dashboard, if you did -> the screen you see at that moment, I it possible to display this on a page of your website?

    Many thanks in advance, and apologies English is not my native language…

    Oh! I understand what you mean now.

    I don’t know any way to do this without a bit of custom code.
    The media library treats each asset as attachments to a post.

    Please take a look at this link:

    I couldn’t find any good plugins that do this automatically.

    Thank you,
    that was indeed what I was looking for, I couldn’t find any info on it either!

    But I think I can make this work now 😉 (with some help from my brother)

    See you guys at my next question! Thanks for the support Fabio Fiss
