Essential Grid

Essential Grid helps organize visual and other site content into gallery and grid presentations. Use it to build layouts for portfolios, galleries, blogs, and more, with options for photo, video, and audio content. Its drag-and-drop builder lets you arrange a grid visually, making it useful for people who want control over how content appears without writing code.

Choose from even, masonry, and cobble layouts, then customize the appearance with templates and the visual skin editor. The plugin can source and update content from platforms including Instagram, YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr. Grids are responsive, and deep linking and pagination are available for gallery content. Watermark and right-click protection can help safeguard displayed work.
