Once you’ve installed and activated the Galleryberg plugin, creating a stunning image gallery is just a few clicks away. This guide will walk you through the step-by-step process of creating your first gallery using the Gutenberg block editor.

Step 1: Open the WordPress Editor #

Go to your WordPress dashboard and:

• Create a new post or page (Posts or Pages → Add Post or Page)
• Or open an existing post/page where you want to insert the gallery

Step 2: Insert the Galleryberg Block #

• Click the “+” button in the editor to add a new block
• In the search bar, type “Galleryberg”
• Click on the ‘Galleryberg’ block.

Step 3: Add Images to Your Gallery #

1. After inserting the block, choose images from your Media Library or upload new ones
2. Once selected, click the “Select” button

Your images will now appear inside the Galleryberg block.

Step 4: Select a Gallery Layout (Optional) #

By default, Galleryberg will show the photo gallery in tiles layout. You can choose one from tiles, masonry, justified, or square layout.

Each layout offers a different visual style — you can try them out to see which one fits your content best.

Make changes as needed to match your design preferences.

Step 5: Enable Lightbox (Optional but Recommended) #

Want your visitors to click and enlarge images in a popup view? Toggle on “Enable Lightbox” from the sidebar panel.

Now, when users click an image, it will open in a beautiful, distraction-free lightbox.

Step 6: Save or Publish Your Page #

Once you’re happy with your gallery:

• Click Preview to see how it looks
• Then hit Publish (or Update, if editing an existing page)

That’s it — your first Galleryberg gallery is live!

Final Result #

Your beautifully crafted gallery will be:

✅ Fully responsive
✅ Fast-loading
✅ Easy to navigate
✅ Styled with the layout you selected
