0.5%

of downloads still active

At least 100K of 20.3M lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,319 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 12 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    Die Einstellungsmöglichkeiten für die Galerie sowie auch die Lightbox sind in der kostenlosen Version recht umfangreich. Es lässt sich sogar für die Bilder auch ein Rechtsklick-Schutz sowie ein Wasserzeichen als Text oder Bild (png) einstellen. Das Design ist z.T. nicht ganz aktuell, lässt sich jedoch alles einstellen und anpassen. Das bedeutet jedoch dann etwas Aufwand oder man deaktiviert z.B. in der Lightbox einige Funktionen um einfacher und auch schicker zu halten.

    What should be simple is overly complicated. The UI is confusing and basic gallery setup takes far too many steps. Not user-friendly at all.

    can we expect an update from photogallery soon, it hasn’t been for a long time, and it’s causing me a conflict with the Photograph theme, it’s creating a wrong sitemap

    Sadly the new developers (after the plugin was bought by 10web) are forcing you to use their lightbox as a fixed component. The original Gallery plugin before 10web took it over, allowed you to use our own lightbox. Well, I had to cancel my subscription and I will find another photo gallery plugin. They dont even care about paying customers….
