About Featured Galleries

Featured Galleries is a plugin that allows theme developers to add multiple images to a post as a gallery, similar to how Featured Images are added. The plugin handles the backend/admin interface for creating and storing the galleries, but themes need to handle the frontend HTML creation. The plugin also provides customization options for the media manager.

Changelog

2.1.0

  • Bugfix: Fix broken details sidebar hiding filter. The details sidebar is now properly hidden again by default, and can be shown be using the fg_show_sidebar filter.

  • Tested with WP 4.4 and bumped up compatibility.

1.4.3

1.1.3

  • Added a new argument to get_post_gallery_ids(), allowing it to return only the first image in the gallery.

1.1.2

  • Minor bug fix update. If used opened, closed, and then reopened the gallery selector, the back button would appear incorrectly. Skipping 1.1.1 because that is a silly version number.
