Description

Need a simple way to show off your work on Website? Ultimate Portfolio lets you build portfolio galleries, sliders, and post grids right inside the Gutenberg editor. No coding needed.

Photographers use it for photo galleries. Designers showcase their projects. Agencies display client work. Bloggers create visual post layouts. It works for any kind of portfolio gallery you want to build.

Here’s What You Get

Pick from grid, masonry, or justified layouts. Add category filters so visitors can sort through your work. Set up lightbox popups for larger image views. Everything adjusts automatically for phones and tablets.

The Gutenberg blocks drop right into any page or post. Choose your layout, add images or select posts, and you’re done.

Works With

  • Single images and photo collections
  • Blog posts displayed as gallery grids
  • WooCommerce products (if you have it installed)
  • Custom post types

Layout Options

Grid layout keeps things neat and organized. Masonry arranges items like Pinterest. Justified fills the space edge to edge. Each includes hover effects and optional captions.

What kind of content works with this?

Images, portfolio projects, blog posts, WooCommerce products. Basically anything you want to display in a gallery or slider format.

Will it look good on phones?

Yes. All layouts resize automatically for smaller screens.

How do category filters work?

Assign categories when adding portfolio items. Visitors click the category name to see only those items.

I use Elementor. Will this work?

Yes. Add Gutenberg blocks inside Elementor pages using their WordPress widget option.

Do I need WooCommerce?

No. WooCommerce support is just an option if you already have it.

Can I add my own CSS?

Each block has a custom CSS field. Or use your theme’s customizer.

How many images can I add to a gallery?

Unlimited, there’s no fixed limit. Add as many as you need, though keep in mind larger galleries may take longer to load.

Can I show the same image in multiple categories?

Yes. Assign multiple categories to any portfolio item and it will appear when visitors filter by any of those categories.

Does it slow down my website?

Not really. The lazy loading feature only loads images when they scroll into view, keeping initial page load fast.

Can I link portfolio items to external pages?

Yes. Each item can have its own link, whether to an internal page or an external URL.

Is there a way to change the number of columns?

Yes. You can set how many columns appear on desktop, tablet, and mobile separately.

What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

Your images stay in your media library. The portfolio blocks won’t display until you reactivate, but nothing gets deleted.
