Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about Gallery Search.
Gallery search improves user experience by helping visitors find specific photos in a WordPress gallery. You can enable Search for any gallery.
Search is available in FooGallery PRO Expert.
The Search function can be helpful in improving user experience, making it easier to find specific images. This is particularly relevant for larger galleries, as users won’t need to scroll through the entire gallery to find what they are looking for.
Search is different to filtering. Both make use of tags or categories but while filters will show you the images assigned to that tag, the search can help refine the results. Ideally, large galleries should pair search with Filtering to further improve performance and user experience.
