FAQ
-
How do I display the gallery?
-
Use the shortcode
[ShowMyAura gallery_id="X"]— find the ID in the gallery list or the edit screen. -
How does the image auto-scroll work?
-
For tall portrait images, only the top portion is visible initially. When a user hovers over the image, it smoothly scrolls to reveal the full image from top to bottom. The scroll speed is configurable in Gallery Settings.
-
How many projects can I add?
-
Unlimited. There is no project limit in the free version.
-
Is the gallery mobile responsive?
-
Yes. All three layouts adapt to any screen size. Masonry becomes a single column on mobile, Slider stacks image and details vertically, and Spotlight Grid adjusts column count automatically.
-
Can I use it for videos?
-
Yes. Enter any mp4, webm, or ogg URL as the project image. Videos autoplay on hover in the gallery and play with controls in the lightbox.
