详情介绍:
- Photos, folders or zip files. Drag in individual photos, a whole folder or a zip file, with a progress bar for each upload.
- The right way up. Phone photos that would otherwise appear sideways are rotated.
- Resized for the web. Each photo is resized for different screen sizes, and saved as WebP when your server supports it, so phones download small images and large screens get sharp ones.
- iPhone photos. HEIC photos are converted when your server supports it. If it doesn't, Lloyd Gallery says so instead of adding photos that won't display.
- Clear error messages. If a file is too big or can't be used, you're told why, with the affected files listed. Uploads that can be tried again get a Retry button.
- Photos you already have. Pick photos from your Media Library instead of uploading them again. The same photo can be in as many galleries as you like.
- A galleries page. Activating the plugin creates a "Photo Gallery" page that lists every published gallery with its cover photo and date.
- A page for every gallery, at an address such as yoursite.com/gallery/summer-fair/.
- Dates. Give each gallery a date, usually the day the photos were taken. It's shown with the gallery, and galleries can be sorted by date or by name.
- Drafts and previews. New galleries start as drafts, so you can add photos and preview them before publishing.
- Cover photos. The first photo becomes the cover. Click the star on any other photo to change it.
- Descriptions, shown above the photos.
- A justified photo grid. Photos are laid out in full-width rows, as on Flickr. Nothing is cropped, and portrait and landscape photos sit side by side.
- A full-screen lightbox. Click a photo to see it full screen. Swipe and pinch to zoom on phones, or use the arrow keys on a computer.
- A slideshow in the lightbox, at three speeds.
- Captions, under photos and in the lightbox.
- Fade-in as photos scroll into view.
- Any screen size, from phones to large monitors.
- One screen for all your galleries, with Published and Draft tabs, and publish, move to draft and delete for several galleries at once.
- Saves as you go. A new name, caption or date is saved when you click away, with a small confirmation.
- Drag photos into order within a gallery.
- Rotate, caption or remove a photo from the gallery screen.
- Select several photos at once, including a range with Shift, and remove them together.
- Removing is safe. Removing a photo from a gallery, or deleting a gallery, never deletes the photos from your Media Library. Anything permanent asks you to confirm first.
- Settings if you need them. Image quality and sizes can be changed under Lloyd Gallery → Settings. The defaults suit most sites.
- Add galleries anywhere with the Lloyd Gallery block: one gallery, or the list of galleries, on any page or post. Shortcodes are available too.
- Gallery Grid pattern. For a different look for your list of galleries, insert the "Lloyd Gallery: Gallery Grid" pattern and rearrange it with ordinary WordPress blocks.
- Block themes and classic themes.
- Menus. Add the galleries page, or individual galleries, to your site's menu like any other page.
- Search engines. Galleries are ordinary WordPress content, so SEO plugins such as Yoast SEO and Rank Math include them. Each gallery page also describes its photos to search engines.
- Lightweight. No jQuery, and styles and scripts only load on pages that show a gallery.
- Any language. Every word can be translated, including into right-to-left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew.
- Multilingual sites. With Polylang, translate your galleries into every language on your site. Visitors see each gallery, the galleries page and the captions in their own language.
- Everything runs on your own website. Lloyd Gallery doesn't connect to any outside service, doesn't track your visitors and doesn't load anything from other servers.
- Location data stays private. Phones store where a photo was taken inside the file. Visitors only ever see resized copies, which leave that out.
- If you delete the plugin, your galleries and photos are kept.
- Your own gallery order. Drag galleries into the order you want on your galleries page, instead of sorting them by name or date.
- Password-protected galleries. Only people with the password can see a gallery, for private events, members or clients.
- Importing from Modula. Bring your Modula galleries into Lloyd Gallery.
- Every future Pro feature, included.
安装:
- In your WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins → Add New, search for "Lloyd Gallery" and click Install Now, then Activate.
- Open Lloyd Gallery → Galleries in the dashboard menu and click + New gallery.
- Give the gallery a name and a date, then drop your photos onto the gallery screen.
- Click Publish.
- Your gallery now appears on the Photo Gallery page, which was created for you. Add that page to your menu under Appearance → Menus, or in the Site Editor.

常见问题:
Do I need to resize or edit my photos first?
No. Upload them straight from your phone or camera. Lloyd Gallery turns them the right way up and resizes them.
How many photos can I upload at once?
There's no limit on the number of photos. Drop in hundreds of photos or a whole folder and they upload side by side. A single zip file can hold up to 300 photos; for more, use a second zip. The largest file your website accepts is shown on the upload area, and is set by your web host.
Can I upload iPhone (HEIC) photos?
Yes, if your web host supports them. Some hosts do; many don't. If yours doesn't, Lloyd Gallery tells you straight away instead of adding photos that won't display. If that happens, you can either ask your host to add HEIC support, or set your iPhone to save photos as JPEG: Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible.
What is a gallery's date for?
It's shown with the gallery on your galleries page and the gallery's own page, and it's used when galleries are sorted by date. Most people use the day the photos were taken. A new gallery starts with today's date.
How do I add my galleries to my menu?
Activating the plugin creates a page called "Photo Gallery" that lists all your published galleries. Add it to your menu like any other page. You can rename the page or change its address by editing it; your galleries' addresses follow automatically.
Can I put a gallery on a different page?
Yes. Add the Lloyd Gallery block to any page or post and choose one gallery or the list of galleries. If you use a page builder or the classic editor, use the shortcodes [lloydgallery id="123"] for one gallery or [lloydgallery_list] for the list.
Can a photo be in more than one gallery?
Yes. Use "Choose from Media Library" on a gallery to add photos you've already uploaded. Removing a photo from one gallery doesn't affect any others, and never deletes it from your Media Library.
Where are the settings?
Under Lloyd Gallery → Settings in the dashboard menu, and there's a Settings link on the Plugins screen. Before version 1.3 they were under Settings → Lloyd Gallery; that address still leads to the right place.
Will it work with my theme?
It's designed to. Lloyd Gallery works with both block themes and classic themes, and fits into your theme's existing page layout.
Does it work on multilingual sites?
Yes. On a site in one language, everything Lloyd Gallery shows can be translated into that language, including right-to-left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. With Polylang (version 3.7 or later), galleries can be translated into every language on your site. Each gallery gets a Language box: pick a language and Lloyd Gallery creates a draft copy for you to translate and publish. Visitors then see the gallery, the galleries page and the photo captions in their own language. A few things to know:
- A translation copies the gallery's list of photos when you create it. Photos you add to one language later aren't added to the others. Your image files are never copied.
- A gallery not yet translated into a language is still listed on that language's galleries page, in its original language, until you translate it. To list only translated galleries instead, choose "Leave them out" under "Galleries not yet translated" in Lloyd Gallery → Settings.
- Gallery addresses keep your galleries page's name, with Polylang's language prefix in front, for example /fr/gallery/my-gallery/.
- To translate photo captions, turn on media translation in Polylang's settings. Without it, each caption is shared by every language.
- WPML isn't supported yet.
Can I password-protect a gallery?
Yes, with the Lloyd Gallery Pro add-on. Once it's installed, a password option appears on each gallery.
Does it work with SEO plugins?
Yes. Galleries are standard WordPress content, so plugins like Yoast SEO and Rank Math include them, in your sitemap too.
I'm using another gallery plugin. Can I switch?
From Modula, yes: the Lloyd Gallery Pro add-on brings Modula galleries into Lloyd Gallery, with their photos in the same order and their captions. From any plugin, you can also add photos from your Media Library to new galleries by hand.
Does it remove the location data from my photos?
From what your visitors see, yes. Phones store where each photo was taken inside the file. Lloyd Gallery shows visitors resized copies in its galleries, the list of galleries and the lightbox, and those copies leave the location out. Your original uploads are kept unchanged in your Media Library, but Lloyd Gallery never shows or links to them. The one exception is a very small image, under 480 pixels wide, which has no resized copies and is shown as uploaded. Phone photos are far larger than that. If you build your own list of galleries with the Gallery Grid pattern, its cover photos are handled by WordPress rather than Lloyd Gallery.
Does Lloyd Gallery send any data anywhere?
No. It runs entirely on your own website. It doesn't connect to outside services, track visitors or load files from other servers.
Does it add a credit link to my site?
Only if you turn it on. There's an optional setting, off unless you switch it on, in Lloyd Gallery → Settings to show a small "Photo gallery by Lloyd Gallery" link under your galleries.
What happens to my galleries if I delete the plugin?
They're kept. Deleting the plugin removes only its settings. Your galleries, the Photo Gallery page and your photos all stay, so if you reinstall, everything is where you left it.
更新日志:
- Improved: one word for one thing. Everything is now called a gallery, and the page that lists them is the galleries page. Your galleries, photos and pages are updated automatically when you update the plugin.
- Improved: Lloyd Gallery's settings are now under Lloyd Gallery → Settings, next to your galleries, and there's a Settings link on the Plugins screen. The old address still works.
- Improved: a gallery's "event date" is now just "Date", with a note saying what it's for.
- Improved: plainer, shorter wording on every screen.
- Fixed: on phones and tablets, Pause in the lightbox slideshow didn't pause it.
- Fixed: swiping, using the arrows or changing the speed stopped the slideshow. It now keeps playing until you press Pause or close the lightbox, and the next photo comes a full interval after you move on by hand.
- If you use Lloyd Gallery Pro, update it to version 1.2: earlier versions don't work with this one, and Lloyd Gallery says so on the Plugins screen until it's updated.
- If your site has its own CSS for the list of galleries: the class names now start lg-gallery-. Lloyd Gallery updates your site's Additional CSS for you; CSS in a theme's own files needs changing by hand.
- New: works with Polylang. Translate your galleries into any number of languages from the new Language box on each gallery. Visitors see each gallery, its gallery page, captions and alt text in their own language.
- New: a gallery that hasn't been translated yet is still listed on each language's gallery page, in its original language, so a gallery page you've already copied into another language keeps showing your galleries. A new setting lets you leave them out instead.
- New: a caption that hasn't been translated yet is shown in its original language, and marked so screen readers read it correctly.
- New: with Polylang, the galleries screen shows one card per gallery with its translations, and can list the galleries still missing a translation.
- New: with Polylang, "Choose from Media Library" shows each photo once, with a language badge and a language filter.
- Improved: every message with a number in it uses the right plural form in every language, and numbers use your site's own separators (1,234 or 1.234).
- Improved: the admin screens, the gallery and the lightbox lay out correctly in right-to-left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew, and drag-and-drop follows the reading direction.
- Improved: gallery names, descriptions and captions are shown in their own writing direction, so a caption in one language isn't cut off on a screen set to another.
- Improved: gallery pages and the galleries screen load faster, especially for large galleries.
- Improved: the plugin's name in your Plugins list now matches its WordPress.org listing.
- Gallery photos now show on sites using Polylang with media translation switched on. Before, photos in another language, and every photo uploaded before Polylang was installed, were missing from gallery pages and the gallery screen.
- Gallery dates now use your site's own date format from Settings > General, so they read naturally in any language. Before, they were always shown as day, month, year.
- Your galleries, gallery list and lightbox now always show visitors resized copies of your photos, never the original files, so the location data phones store in photos isn't shared.
- Every word in the lightbox, including its buttons and tooltips, can now be translated.
- Gallery pages now have their own clean layout on block themes such as Twenty Twenty-Five: the gallery title, date, description and a full-width gallery. Previously they borrowed the theme's blog-post layout, which showed the cover photo very large and an empty "Written by" line. You can still customise the layout in the Site Editor.
- Rewrote this plugin description and FAQ in plain English, and listed every feature.
- The image quality setting now shows its real range (40 to 100).
- Gallery addresses now always work straight after activation, and keep working when you rename or move the Photo Gallery page.
- Uploading lots of photos at once no longer risks some of them going missing from the gallery. Existing galleries are updated automatically.
- Gallery image settings now only affect gallery photos, not the rest of your Media Library.
- Captions are no longer lost when adding photos from the Media Library.
- Failed saves are now reported instead of looking successful, and can be retried.
- Zip uploads are checked more carefully and tidied up afterwards.
- Rotating a photo now removes the old, unrotated copies.
- Sites using Lloyd Gallery Pro should update it to 1.0.6 first.
- Every button, message and dialog in the dashboard can now be translated.
- Removing several photos at once now uses the same confirmation box as everything else.
- Clearer bulk action messages, such as "3 galleries updated".
- Zip uploads handle very large or unreadable files more safely.
