New in Gallery Pro: Remote Folder support 🎉

Announcements

Gallery Pro can now build a gallery straight from a folder on your server :tada:

In the Media settings, switch Source to Remote Folder, point it at a folder on your published site, and the gallery builds itself.

Upload new photos to that folder and they appear on your site automatically - no republishing needed. Drop a matching `-thumb` file alongside an image and it’ll be used as the thumbnail, and masonry layouts and the lightbox work exactly as they do with resources.

Note: your server needs PHP for this feature.

The update is free for everyone who owns Gallery Pro, simply update to the latest version on the Elements Store and it’s there.

Let us know what you build with it :backhand_index_pointing_down:
