AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Photo Galleria is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Gallery category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 4 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Photo Galleria works
Photo Galleria is a simple, yet elegant, plugin for photographers and designers who want to beautify and simplify their WordPress photo galleries. The Photo Galleria plugin filters the default WordPress gallery shortcode and replaces it with an elegant jQuery-powered gallery. Simply upload photos as normal and the Photo Galleria plugin will create a photo gallery with fade-in and fade-out effects common on flash-based websites. All the transitions happen inline without having to navigate to multiple WordPress attachment pages. This plugin comes with different design options, which you can select on the Photo Galleria Settings page. Pretty neat, eh?
