How to Create an Image Gallery in WordPress (Step by Step)

Are you looking to create an image gallery in WordPress?

An image gallery lets you add photos in rows and columns. This allows you to display more photos in less space while also making it easier for users to browse them.

In this article, we will show you how to easily create an image gallery in WordPress that makes your photos look even better.

How to create an image gallery in WordPress

Why Create an Image Gallery in WordPress?

WordPress makes it super easy to add an image to your blog posts and pages. You just need to add the image block and upload your image.

However, if you are adding multiple images, then all those images will appear one after another. It doesn’t look great, and your users will have to scroll a lot to view them all.

Adding Multiple Images in WordPress Post Without Creating a Gallery

By creating a gallery, you can display images in a grid layout with columns and rows. You can show thumbnails for your pictures, and users can click on them to see the full image.

This way, you will be able to show more photos in less space, and it will look a lot more professional.

Preview of WordPress Photo Gallery Using Default Gallery Block

WordPress actually comes with a built-in gallery feature for quickly creating photo galleries. The new WordPress block editor includes a Gallery block to let you make a WordPress gallery in just a few clicks.

You can also use WordPress image gallery plugins to create even more robust galleries with more features.

In this tutorial, we will show you both methods to make a photo gallery in WordPress.

Let’s start with the default WordPress gallery block.

Method 1. Create an Image Gallery without a Plugin

WordPress comes with a built-in feature that lets you create a gallery. This feature is very basic and does not have many options, but it gets the job done.

Here is how you would create an image gallery in WordPress without using a plugin.

First, you need to edit the post or page where you want to add the image gallery. On the post edit screen, click on the Add New Block icon and select the Gallery block.

Add Gallery Block to WordPress Post Editor

This will add the Gallery block to your WordPress editor where you can click on the ‘Upload’ button to upload photos from your computer. You can also select from previously uploaded photos in the media library.

Image Upload Options in WordPress Gallery Block

If you click on the Upload button, then you can generally upload one photo at a time. However, you can select and open multiple images with Ctrl key pressed on your keyboard.

Upload Images to Your WordPress Photo Gallery from Computer

After you have uploaded all the images, you can add captions to your images. Simply click on the photos, and you will see ‘Write caption…’ option where you need to enter the caption.

Write Captions in Your Gallery Images

If you select the Media Library button, then you will be able to choose images for your gallery all at once. As you select images, you can also enter the image alt text, title, and caption from the attachment details panel on the right side.

Select Images from WordPress Media Library

Select the images you want to add and click on the ‘Create a new gallery’ button at the bottom right corner.

Next, you will see ‘Edit Gallery’ page where you can add/review your image captions. Once done, click on the ‘Update Gallery’ button at the bottom right corner.

Update Your WordPress Library

After that, your post edit screen will open with the gallery block settings panel on the right side. Now, you can choose the number of columns for each row, enable or disable the Crop images option, and choose where to link your gallery images.

WordPress Gallery Block Settings

From the Link to options, you can choose None if you want your users to only view your photo. This option disables clicking feature for your images.

If you select the Media File option, then the images will be clickable, and the image file will open when clicked. Similarly, the attachment page will open if you select the Attachment Page option.

Once you are satisfied with the settings, you can publish the post and preview the gallery on your live website.

For example, here is how the image gallery appeared on our demo website.

Preview of WordPress Photo Gallery Using Default Gallery Block

Wasn’t that quick and easy?

It looks pretty too. However, if you create image galleries regularly, then you will soon notice that it lacks certain essential features.

For example, your images will either be not clickable or open in a new page. If you link your gallery images to the media file or attachment page, then the users will have to click on the back button to view the gallery again.

It is not user-friendly, and your gallery’s appearance depends on your theme. In most cases, you get just one very generic style.

You can’t organize your galleries into topics, albums, tags, etc. Your gallery is not stored anywhere and if you needed to add the same gallery again, then you’ll have to recreate it.

If you want to add more professional looking image galleries on your site, then you should use the next method.

Method 2. Create an Image Gallery Using Envira Gallery

For this method, we will be using the Envira Gallery plugin. It is the best WordPress image gallery plugin in the market.

Envira allows you to easily create fully-responsive, beautiful, and modern image galleries in WordPress. It is super fast and comes with many features like lightbox popup, easy image navigation, drag and drop builder, and professional gallery templates.

Let’s get started.

First thing you need to do is install and activate the Envira Gallery plugin. For more details, see our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

Upon activation, you need to visit the Envira Gallery » Settings page to enter your license key. You can get this key from your account on the Envira Gallery website.

Enter Envira Gallery License Key

After verifying your license key, you can head over to Envira Gallery » Add New page to create your first gallery.

Creating a New Gallery with Envira Gallery WordPress Plugin

First, you need to provide a title for your gallery and then click on ‘Select files from computer’ button to upload your images.

You can also select files from your WordPress media library by clicking on ‘Select files from other sources’ button.

Once you upload the images, they will appear in the Gallery section.

Images in Envira Gallery Builder

You can click the pencil icon on an image to add caption, title, and alt text for each image.

Edit Gallery Image Metadata

Next, you need to click on the ‘Configuration’ tab.

From here you can change your gallery settings like the number of columns, image lazy loading, title and caption positioning, margins, heights, thumbnail sizes, image dimensions, etc.

Configure Envira Gallery Settings

After that, you need to click on the ‘Lightbox’ tab.

The lightbox popup allows users to enlarge images and browse them without ever leaving the page.

The default settings will work very well for most websites, but you can review the options and change them if you like.

Envira Gallery Lightbox Options

Next, you can click on the ‘Mobile’ tab to configure your gallery settings for mobile devices. It allows you to choose image dimensions for mobile devices, enable or disable lightbox, and more.

Envira Mobile Gallery Settings

After that, you can review more options like gallery slug and add custom CSS from the ‘Misc’ section.

You can now publish your gallery which will make it available to be added anywhere on your WordPress site.

Next, you need to edit a post or page where you want to display your gallery.

On the post edit screen, click on the Add New Block icon and select the Envira Gallery block.

Add Envira Block to WordPress Post Editor

Clicking on it will add the Envira Gallery block in the post editor. Now you can search a gallery by its name or find it by clicking on the dropdown arrow icon.

Choose an Envira Gallery to Add to your WordPress Post

After that, the plugin will load your gallery in the post editor.

Envira Gallery Added to WordPress Post Editor

Next, you can review your gallery settings one more time from the block settings panel on the right side.

Envira Gallery Block Settings

You can now save your post and preview it to see the gallery on your live website.

WordPress Photo Gallery Created with Envira Gallery

Clicking on any image in the gallery will open it in the lightbox popup. You can browse images in the lightbox by pressing the left and right arrow keys on the screen or on your keyboard.

Envira Gallery Image in the Lightbox Popup

Your gallery will look equally great on mobile as well. Users will be able to tap on an image to enlarge it and swipe to view the next or previous image.

    I found this very difficult to follow, my WordPress is set up very different. The date at the top says Jan 2020, but there are comments from 2016? When was this created? Since the date at the top said January 2020 *(and it’s now June 2020), I thought this would still represent the current WordPress, but it doesn’t. So this is just very confusing…

    It would depend on how well the gallery plugin is coded, if there is lazy loading then it could speed up that specific page but overall you would want to take a look at how plugins affect your site speed here: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-wordpress-plugins-affect-your-sites-load-time/

    Hi!

    I am trying to add an image gallery that has links to various external pages (i.e. you click on an image and it brings you to that website.) I have determined that this is difficult to do with the WP gallery because they want all the images to go to the same linked page, but I want each of my images to go to a different page. It seems envira is not free. I downloaded gridplus and gridable but am still struggling with how to do this. ideas??

    My blogs show as individual thimble images on the front blog page. If you hover over image you see the title. My issue is when you click on my blog page it looks like I have nil blogs as it takes up to 20 seconds for all images to show. Can you have the blogs list as titles rather images? If i hide featured image the boxed appear blank which is worse.

    How do you delete images from a gallery? I have tried every single thing I can possibly think of and followed all the advice given on the internet, but the images are still there on my home page, even though I have deleted them multiple times from the actual gallery. There are no problems with the Media Library, just the gallery that appears on my home page. If anyone can tell me how to get rid of these pictures, that would be greatly appreciated.

    HI, Would be helpful to alot of people if you also suggested a free gallery plugin, rather than advertise a paid plugin

      You should have kept reading. They do offer a pretty cool free plugin to add to the existing WP gallery. A nice looking carousel. Did you see?

    Thank you very much for the tutorial.

    I have just one question.

    I created the gallery and published it, but when i put the mouse over the picture, it show a red square with two small silver squares that says: “view attachment page’ and “view in full size”

    How can i remove it? I wanna make it like in facebook, that you just put the mouse over, click and see the carousel.

    Is that possible?

    I did what you suggest above to create a simple gallery on a webpage. It shows up beautifully. However whenever I click on one of the thumb nail images it says : “image cannot be loaded. Make sure path is correct and image exist”.

      Just to clarify, I mean when I click on ANY of the thumbnails in that gallery I get that same error message.

    Carousel not working in Page – I downloaded “Carousel Without Jetpack” and created my photo gallery as a new Post and also created photo gallery as a new Page, however, carousel works in the post but not the page. Carousel is enabled in “settings” so why cant I get it to work in Page?

    Are you using any other plugins that might cause conflict? Try deactivating all plugins and see if this fixes the problem.
