The new built in gallery shortcode is certainly a handy addition, but it is far from perfect. As such, I have written this plugin to optimise this feature.
What it actually does:
- Puts all the gallery css in a separte file, for easy customisation and faster page load.
- Adds an id attribute to the code, so that two or more galleries can have a different number of columns and still display correctly on the same page.

Fixed in version 1.0.2
problem is what I downloaded latest version
Are sure you have version 1.0.2 ? It was released after you posted the first comment.
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /**/**/**/**/***/******-******.**/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/improved-gallery/improved-gallery.php on line 106
Looks like it does not work with WordPress 2.6
@Kugelblirz: I’ll try to fix it as soon as possible.
Update: It has been fixed in version 1.0.3
Screenie would be nice! :-P
There’s actually no point in that, because it only improves the code, not the look of the gallery.
Ok, hehe.. thought you would say that :-)
Will you update this so that it works with version 2.7 and 2.7.1?
Thanks,
Peter
I’ll try. :)
I would really like a version compatible to the new WP 2.7 as well. I just upgraded and now the gallery isn’t working properly any more :-(
Thanks for your great plugin.
There. It should work with all versions of WordPress from 2.5 to 2.8.
Works great, thank you
