External services This plugin connects to a self-hosted Immich server that you configure in Settings > Immich. Immich is a self-hosted photo and video management solution — it runs on your own infrastructure and is not a third-party cloud service, but the connection is disclosed here for transparency. What data is sent and when Browsing and searching: When a logged-in WordPress user opens the Immich media picker or searches for photos, the plugin sends API requests (search queries, page numbers, and person filter IDs) to your Immich server. Importing or using media: When a user selects an asset to import or use, the plugin fetches the original file or metadata from the Immich server using the asset’s UUID. Proxying media to visitors: When a site visitor views a page containing Immich-proxied images or videos, WordPress fetches the media from your Immich server on their behalf. Visitor data is not sent to Immich — only the stored asset UUID and your API key are used server-side. All communication uses the API key you configure in WordPress. The API key is never exposed to browsers.

Yet another gallery plugin. I was looking for a simple gallery where you can select a thumbnail, see the complete picture in a acceptable size but also have the oppertunity to see the details of the image. I searched the web for a way to do this and found the AnythingZoomer, a jQuery Plugin by Chris Coyier. I originally used this jquery plugin for this WordPress plugin. In version 0.5 the plugin was completely re-written. The generated HTML is completely different, the JavaScript was re-designed and the CSS was created from scratch. Also inner zoom was introduced. It works well for e-commerce sites like webshops or as a photo gallery. It is easy to adapt if you would want to, but the default behaviour should be very much usable by anybody. There is a settingspage to customize the images used and wheter or not to over- write the default gallery shortcode. If you want to use this gallery, simply use the [superzoomgallery] shortcode in your post or page, or enable the overwriting of the gallery shortcode and use the default wordpress [gallery] shortcode in your post or page. Since this is still an early version, I recommend to test it out first before taking it to a production site. If you have any questions or problems, I would be happy to hear from you and help you if I can!
