 * Hello, is it possible to pre filter a gallery on a given page? For example is
   it possible to insert such a shortcode? [robo-gallery id=“id_number” filter=“
   tag_to_display”] Because I should filter the content of a gallery based on the
   page being visited and I would like to avoid recreating 18 galleries, it would
   be wasteful and not very smart management. Thank you very much for the support,
   Alexander

 * I would add to this that if I could in the gallery have a filter dropdown for
   filter by category, i could let the user sort what images they see. my images
   are tagged using a (#category)

 * Thank you for your message, Alexander! That’s an excellent idea, and we appreciate
   your suggestion. Filtering a gallery via shortcode would indeed make managing
   content across multiple pages much more efficient.
 * We’re excited to share that a major update, version 4.0, is coming next week.
   This update will introduce a wide range of new features, including:
 *  – A revamped gallery grid with improved layouts.
 *  – An updated lightbox with enhanced functionality.
 *  – New hover effects and advanced mobility options.
 *  – Expanded gallery albums and navigation tools.
 *  – Improved pagination and much more.
 * While this release won’t include the filter option you mentioned, we’ll be adding
   it to our development roadmap as a priority for future updates. We understand
   how valuable this feature could be for users like yourself, and we’ll work to
   implement it as soon as possible.
 * If you have any additional ideas or features that would enhance your experience,
   please don’t hesitate to share them. We’re always here to listen and help improve
   the plugin for all our users. Thank you again for your input!
