Overview

About this plugin

Minimal Gallery Page is a simple and minimal WordPress gallery plugin built for users who want a clean, fast, and distraction-free way to display images.

Instead of relying on shortcodes or page builders, the plugin creates a custom post type gallery that integrates naturally into WordPress. Each gallery automatically gets its own single page gallery view, along with a generated gallery archive page that lists all galleries.

This plugin is ideal if you’re looking for a really simple gallery, a minimal gallery plugin, or a lightweight custom post type based image gallery without unnecessary features or visual clutter.

Galleries are easy to manage from the WordPress admin using a familiar drag-and-drop image interface. On the frontend, galleries are displayed using responsive, optimized layouts that work seamlessly on desktop and mobile devices.

Minimal Gallery Page is perfect for portfolios, photography websites, and anyone who wants a single page gallery for each collection of images – clean, fast, and easy to maintain.
