Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Artclick Gallery Lite version 1.0.0 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Artclick Gallery Lite lets you create beautiful, fast image galleries in minutes. Choose a responsive grid (1–6 columns) or switch a gallery into a slider/carousel with a single setting — no extra effort required. Every gallery ships with an accessible lightbox, native lazy loading, a shortcode, and a Gutenberg block.
Built for performance: assets load only on pages that actually contain a gallery, the frontend uses pure vanilla JavaScript (no jQuery), and gallery data is stored in post meta — no custom database tables.
Key Features
Unlimited galleries, managed in a dedicated, clutter-free admin
Responsive grid layout with separate column counts for desktop, tablet, and mobile (1–6 columns)
Built-in slider / carousel mode — show one image or several at once, with a per-device “Slides to Show” setting
Slider controls: autoplay, autoplay speed, loop, slide/fade transitions, plus keyboard, touch-swipe, and mouse-drag navigation
Navigation dots with selectable position (over the slider or below it) and a custom color
Customizable previous / next arrow color
Aspect-ratio options — Original (uncropped) or 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 3:2
Image fit (cover or contain), rounded corners, and hover effects (zoom, lift, grayscale, brighten)
Adjustable horizontal and vertical spacing between images
Drag-and-drop image reordering with per-image captions
Shortcode, Gutenberg block (live preview), and a Classic/TinyMCE insert button
Optional lightbox for normal post/page content images
One-click gallery duplication
Translation ready (ships with a Japanese translation)
Accessibility first: ARIA labels, focus states, screen-reader friendly controls, and reduced-motion support
Clean uninstall — removes its galleries, meta, and options
Performance
No jQuery dependency on the frontend
Vanilla JavaScript only, with minified assets
Assets load only when a gallery is present on the page
Data stored in post meta — no custom database tables and no unnecessary queries
