AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Post Gallery Widget is a newly-listed 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. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). 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 Post Gallery Widget works
This plugin adds a Gallery Posts menu to your WordPress dashboard. To add content to the rotating gallery:
Add a new Gallery Post for each image/headline to be shown in the rotating gallery
Attach one or more images to the gallery post by uploading the image(s) with the media uploader while editing the post
Enter the title & content that you would like to overlay the image
Publish the post(s)
Add the Rotating Post Gallery widget to widget area on your home page
Enter the number of Posts to rotate in the gallery (default = All).
Choose the size of image to display in the gallery (based on your Media Settings)
When multiple images are attached to a Gallery Post one of the images is randomly selected to be shown on each page view.
In the initial verion, you will have to add some CSS to your theme’s stylesheet:
.slideshow { width: 123px; height: 456px; }
Substitute 123 & 456 with the width & height in your Media Settings.
