Social Gallery is The Ultimate Social Lightbox for WordPress.
Social Gallery Plugin is a fantastic new way to engage visitors to your WordPress blog by adding the ultimate lightbox featuring social media buttons (Facebook like, Facebook Send, Pinterests ‘Pin it’, Twitters ‘Tweet This’ and now Linked In, Stumble Upon & Tumblr) as well as Facebook or Disqus Comments! Get More out of your images. More Likes. More Comments. More Revenue. Your blog visitors already click your images, at best perhaps you have a lightbox feature (or maybe you don’t even have that!) – but once they click your images (and if they clicked it, they probably like it!) then what? With Social Gallery Plugin your users can “like”, “tweet” and “pin” the images on your page!

Theme compatiblity: Social Gallery will work with 99.9% of themes, however themes which have custom styles may require a little configuration. Themes which have lightboxes, or plugins which add lightboxes will need to have these removed for Social Gallery to work (because it’s a lightbox.) Free updates for life! All users who buy Social Gallery here get free version updates for life. *Addon modules may be available seperately.
