• The plugin basically works and looks visually appealing. However, I can’t give it a better rating because two critical issues have remained unresolved for years:

    • The lightbox is not fully keyboard accessible. It’s impossible to start videos or navigate through a gallery within a single post using only the keyboard, a clear failure in terms of basic accessibility.
    • The plugin is not translatable, which severely limits its use in multilingual projects or for non-English websites.

    The translation issue has been raised multiple times – I personally submitted a request for translation support over three years ago. Nothing has changed since then. That’s extremely disappointing, especially considering that accessibility and internationalization are not “nice-to-haves,” but essential standards.

    It may look good and function well on the surface, but anyone relying on accessibility or multilingual support will be left behind.
