The legacy shortcode system will soon be deprecated as of v2.0, but will still work. We’re introducing a new interface in v2.0 for adding galleries and albums to pages/posts.
List of Short Codes
The shortcodes below will need to be added within the brackets (without the space between bracket).
Thumbnail Gallery
[ nggallery id=36 ]
will display as:
Slideshow
[ slideshow id=36 ]
will display as:
Albums
[ album id=5 template=compact ]
will display as:
[ album id=5 template=extend ]
will display as:
Use Image Tags to Create Galleries/Albums
[ nggtags album=fields,blue ]
will display as:
Display Captions in Thumbnail Galleries
[ nggallery id=36 template=caption images=3 ]
will display as:
Basic Filmstrip Galleries
[ nggallery id=36 template=carousel images=6 ]
will display as:
Template Engine for Gallery Types
[ nggallery id=1 template=sample1 ]
[ nggallery id=1 template=sample2 ]
[ nggallery id=1 template=sample3 ]
*sample= the template you have created or downloaded that you are calling to as the style for the gallery. See more information here: Working with Templates…
Display Exif Data
[ imagebrowser id=36 template=exif ]
landscape_01
Sort Images in a Gallery Based on Their Tags
[ nggtags gallery=fields,blue ]
Integration with Third Party Plugins
[ monoslideshow id=36 w=450 h=350 ]
[ monoslideshow id=36 w=510 h=340 preset='tv-swap' ]
[ monoslideshow id=36 w=450 h=350 preset='sparkles' ]
Add Tag Clouds
[ tagcloud ]
Single Pic Options
[ singlepic id=x w=width h=height mode=web20 ]
Additional Shortcode Tips
- add ‘images=x’ to shortcode, replacing x with any number to limit the amount of images per page display
- add ‘w=800 h=533′ to shortcode, to set the width and height of any slideshow, filmstrip or singlepic
