Photo Pro

Among photographers around the world, 3 gallery thumbnail styles have risen to the top, Grid, Masonry, and Justified. Photo Pro has all 3 legendary layouts built in, and they all look amazing, and perfect on mobile. You can not go wrong with these 3 thumbnail layouts.

Collection combines multiple (hidden) galleries into a single thumbnail group. Each hidden gallery can be viewed by clicking the representative thumbnail. This is a unique feature that Photo was founded on, now Batch and Total CMS groups can use Collections as well.

Single images get a lightbox option call "Video". When enabled, you enter a YouTube or Vimeo video page url, and that video will be shown in the lightbox (instead of a full size image). Photographers and clients can showcase videos from a group of Photo Pro thumbnails.

Want to sell the images in your lightbox gallery? Single images have an Add to Cart input for pasting in a Cartloom product link. Once added, a shopping bag icon will appear in both the image thumbnail and lightbox view. Add to Cart feature requires a Cartloom account.

Clicking thumbnails normally opens the lightbox, but what if you wanted a thumbnail to be a link that directs people to another web page? Single image thumbnails have the option of becoming external links to other pages. Yes, a thumbnail layout can be a navigational menu.

In some cases, having a lightbox image zoom in and pan by default is preferred, like when showing a panorama image for example. Single images have a "Zoom In" option to automatically initiate the zoom in function shortly after the lightbox image loads.

Photo Pro has direct Total CMS integration, so you can use TCMS images, and apply all the special Photo Pro stack settings to them. Simply choose "TCMS" as the image input, enter a CMS ID, and you're ready. Provide clients a stunning image gallery they can edit online.

Want the power of Photo image stack settings, but prefer to use images hosted on your server? You can select "Hosted" for the image input (also referred to as warehouse). Hosted input provides 2 separate url fields, for both the full size image and thumbnail.

Quickly create batch image groups using RapidWeaver Resource folders. Drag and drop images into a folder on your mac, then drag that folder to the RapidWeaver Resources. Within Photo Pro, you can now use that Resource folder to show all images as a photo group.

Adobe Lightroom and Apple Photos are just a few apps great for editing image meta data, and exporting a batch of images. Photo Pro can read Resource image meta data, and use it for thumbnail date sorting, caption text, alt tag, and supplemental lightbox image info.

Photo Pro automatically creates image captions and alt tags directly from Resource image file names. A resource image named "beautiful-sunset.jpg", would receive a caption that says "Beautiful sunset". Optionally, a Meta Caption can be selected to override this.

Photo Pro provides two folder sources when making a batch Resource group. One folder for full size images, and another folder for thumbnails. Quickly create large volume image galleries on your website page, while serving smaller, compressed, (faster loading) thumbnails.

Optionally choose an image meta tag for image thumbnail captions, even a different meta tag for lightbox captions as well. For example, image Titles you add in Lightroom can be used for thumbnails, and image Captions you add in Lightroom can be used for the lightbox.

Optionally show an info button next to lightbox image captions to reveal meta data. Clicking the info icon will show a list of data points in a nice popup. Popular EXIF, Lightroom, and Apple Photos data will be shown. EXIF GPS data even generates a google map link 😱

Yes. And yes.

Yes. Photo Pro can use a hosted server folder as the batch image source, this is for advanced users, that are not afraid of FTP 😉

Yes.

Yes. A one-time purchase of Photo Pro gives you a lifetime of unlimited usage for creating online galleries for personal and commercial use. Support is provided for 1 year after the purchase date, but you do get unlimited stack updates.

No. Photo Pro is a stack, and requires the Stacks plugin page type to be used. You can however, use Photo Pro on a Total CMS blog.

Long story short, no.
