wpforgeSonido Gallery Pro
Take the free Sonido Gallery plugin further: three premium layout engines, Vimeo video support with cached thumbnails, and a per-gallery layout selector. Same shortcode, same workflow — just more presentation power.

Layouts and video, the way pros need them
Pro is a separate add-on installed alongside the free plugin: activate it and the new capabilities appear in the same Galleries workflow you already know.
Masonry layout
CSS columns that flow vertically — perfect for mixed-ratio photography, like a designer portfolio or a travel wall.
Justified layout
Google-Photos-style rows with a shared height, so your galleries look curated without manual cropping.
Carousel layout
Horizontal scroll-snap slider with prev/next buttons — great for hero galleries and featured sets.
Vimeo videos
Add Vimeo URLs to any gallery: thumbnails are fetched with a smart caching chain and playback opens in the video modal.
Per-gallery layout selector
Choose the layout straight from the gallery editor — no shortcode changes needed, and shortcode overrides still win.
Theme-overridable
Every Pro layout and the item markup can be replaced from your theme, exactly like the free layouts.

Questions before buying
Do I need the free plugin?
Yes — Pro is an add-on. Install the free Sonido Gallery from WordPress.org first, then add Pro alongside it. Both plugins stay active.
How do I activate Pro after purchase?
Upload the Pro zip via Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, activate it, and the new layouts and Vimeo fields appear in the same Galleries workflow.
What does the license cover?
One WordPress site, with one year of updates and priority email support. You can renew at any time to keep receiving updates.
Can I switch from the free grid to a Pro layout?
Instantly. Every Pro layout works with the same [sonido_gallery] shortcode — switching is as simple as changing one attribute or using the per-gallery selector.
Is my site still GPL-compatible?
The free plugin is GPLv2 or later. Pro is a commercial add-on distributed by wpforge.site with its own license terms — your site content stays yours.
