Grid:

This type of gallery displays a grid with multiple thumbnails of images that can be expanded to their original size when clicked upon. For best results, we recommend using images with the same orientation and similar dimensions.

  • Thumbnail Aspect Ratio. Select whether the thumbnail will be square, landscape, or portrait.

  • Stretch Gallery to Edge of Website. Select this option to expand the gallery from left to right edge of your browser. 

  • Number of Images to Show in Preview. This is the total number of thumbnails that will be displayed in the grid view. The rest of the images can be seen by expanding an image or clicking the arrows to navigate through the gallery.

  • Images per Row. The total number of images in each row of the grid. More images per row will decrease the thumbnail size, while less, will increase it.

  • Padding Between Images. Increase/decrease the space between thumbnails on the grid. More padding reduces the thumbnail size while less padding will increase it.

  • If Web Link is Added, Use this Text. Add the text you want to display as a call-to-action (CTA) in image links.

Slide Show:

This is an image carousel that automatically rotates between single images. For best results, we recommend using only landscape-oriented images that have similar dimensions.

  • Stretch Gallery to Edge of Website. Select this option to expand the gallery from left to right edge of your browser. 

  • Enable Time to Automatically Advance to Next Image. Uncheck this box to switch to a manual carousel.

  • Time Delay. Select the time each image will be displayed before moving on to the next image (only available if Automatic Advancement is enabled).

  • Slider Height. Adjust the height of the gallery. It is recommended that you set it to at least the height of your images.

  • Make Gallery Height Responsive. Improves mobile responsiveness and overrides section height and slider height settings. 

Slider:

The Slider allows the viewer to manually go through images as if sliding a roll of film.

The Hero gallery is similar to the slide show, but it allows you to add text to the image like in banners.

  • Stretch Gallery to Edge of Website. Select this option to expand the gallery from the left to the right edge of your browser. 

  • Enable Time to Automatically Advance to Next Image. Uncheck this box to switch to a manual carousel.
