Justified Image Grid is a WordPress plugin that enhances different types of galleries within WordPress. It works extremely well with NextGEN Gallery, so with it you can easily add many grid style galleries to pages and posts.
When first setting sup the plugin, you are faced with the options to use preset gallery styles or to set your own. For testing purposes, I clicked around on the many presets in order to capture screenshots.
Preset: Author’s Favorite
Preset: Magnifier Blur
To place the grid into page or post content, there is a button next to the NextGEN Gallery button. Clicking it brings up additional options to choose from, and then when finished, a shortcode is generated for you to copy/paste where you want it. i.e., [ justified_image_grid nggallery=1 ]
Plugin features include:
- Automatically align images
- Responsive
