Gmedia Photo Gallery

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 53% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I’ve used the free version for several years. No complaints. Which is why I bought a couple of licenses. It works great for my portfolio site, and I’m looking forward to expanding its use on another site. It’s full-featured and I’ve had nothing but stable operation. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but it’s totally worth it. I’m looking forward to learning all the features available in the full license version.

   I installed it to create an album gallery similar to what they show in their demo(AlbumsGrid). I configured the plugin, created the albums and then when I went to create the gallery I figured out that almost all of the options are premium. I got very disappointed because they never mentioned in the plugin page that showcased features are available only on the premium version and they wasted few hours of my time. If you think this is a misunderstanding, please let me know and I can change my rating.

   Hello,In 2020 I bought a Phantom Pro version Unfortunately, it has been downgraded to the old version Phantom Old, as it will no longer accept my license key. I have tried to write to those who issued the invoice and also directly by email, but I have not received any reply. This means that I now have a website where my 500 photos look like real crap, and the many hundreds of hours I have spent sorting and creating categories for my photos have almost been lost and I have to start over, which really don’t impress me! I don’t know if anyone else is experiencing problems at the moment, but it seems someone has abandoned the sinking ship. Does anyone have any good advice? Cheers Bo Joachim

   The plugin is difficult to set up, and the bad thing is that there is no technical support. I opened a topic on the forum, sent an email to their page, but no response. I got the pro version but can’t figure it out, and the technicians are nowhere to be found.

   Actually, this gallery has some nice ideas. And some of the modules look quite nice too. However, these modules either seem to come from different developers or have been put together without any concept at all. For example, each module has different social media pages. Unfortunately, many of the links are not correct. If you click on Twitter, you just get an error message because the URL in the code is wrong. As for errors in general, the gallery is riddled with errors. And they are different in every module. Sometimes you can’t even download the images properly, even though they are offered, because an incorrect link is generated here too. And the support… Well, there is no support. The developer hasn’t contacted us in the forum for a long time. And he doesn’t respond to emails either (as many others have already written). I can only recommend: Hands off.

   First of all: English is NOT my mother language!! So please excuse any errors in my review.I really don’t know why 2 big other gallery plugins are so famous and well known – I uninstalled both after trying them. Gmedia is the only gallery which is able to display albums, tags and categories in such an intuitively way. The “query” function is really great!And it offers so much possibillities almost in the free version with really awesome modules for displaying galeries. I can’t understand why so many people here say “it’s user unfriendly”. I’m a totally Word Press-Newbie and it took only a few time to understand how this plugin works. It is so comfortable to add files to albums and edit ALL of them by one click or by batch edit. It’s really awesome!Why do all people expect support for a FREE plugin?? If I had problems I would post them in a help forum. Because I wanted to support such a great work I bought the Premium version – and now I am able to use the album, tag and category funtions in the whole scope in many great modules without using a menu and building the accordingly sites manually. I love this plugin and hope it will find more user! This topic was modified 2 years, 10 months ago by trimalo. This topic was modified 2 years, 10 months ago by trimalo.
