Now for the Premium version:

Defaults: Are you tired of going through each gallery and setting up the same settings repeatedly? Use the Defaults extension to define a basic set of options for your galleries, then simply add this to each new gallery you create. It saves a lot of time!
Video gallery: Use the Video extension to combine videos with images in your galleries. It works with YouTube, Vimeo, and self-hosted videos.
Lightbox slideshow: improve the user experience with your galleries by presenting the images in a stunning slideshow.
Slider gallery: This helps display your gallery images in a new format type: slider. It can be synced with a thumbnail strip below it. You can switch it up by adding different elements to the slider: dots, arrows, a fade effect, infinite loop, center mode, and more.
Gallery Filters: Apply one or more filters to your images to allow your website’s visitors to easily sort through your gallery.
Albums: Let’s say you are going on a holiday trip and wish to document each day in a separate gallery. The Albums extension will allow you to group up all your holiday galleries in a single listing, enabling easy access to your precious memories.
– Multiple dynamic effects: Loading Effects, Hover effects and Zoom effects
Watermark images: protect your photos by adding custom watermarks.
Right-Click Protection: use it to prevent visitors from downloading your images with right-click protection. It also turns off keyboard shortcuts for downloading images.
Speed UP: Using this extension, you can optimize your images by reducing their file sizes, resizing them through ShortPixel’s image optimization algorithms, and serving them from StackPath’s CDN (content delivery network). The result? A fast website without the high costs associated with it.
Whitelabel: This extension helps you remove all mentions of Modula from the plugin and customize it with your own brand, logo, and text.
– Support and updates are included with each purchase for one year.

Can I migrate galleries created with other plugins?

YES! Whether you have galleries created with NextGEN, FooGallery, Envira Gallery, Final Tiles or Photoblocks, you can transform them into Modula galleries on the spot, with our migrator plugins available in the WordPress repository:
Migrate away from NextGEN Gallery
Migrate away from FooGallery

The layout doesn’t look correct

Check the console of the browser and look if you see any error like: “Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function”
This errors means that the browser doesn’t know the Modula JavaScript plugin, most of the time the problem is caused by a wrong jQuery inclusion by the theme or another plugin.

Why does some image look blurry ?

If you get blurry and pixellated images then you need to raise the “Minimum image width” parameter inside the “General” section.
