Using local heuristics or AI, it automatically extracts meaningful titles, detects categories, generates smart keywords, and writes short, SEO-friendly descriptions, all directly from your image files. No more manual metadata entry. Just upload your images, and let **Petruth Smart Gallery** do the rest. **Key Features:** – 🧠 Automatically extract image titles from filenames. – 🏷️ Detect categories and generate relevant keywords. – ✍️ Write short, human-like descriptions using AI or local logic. – 📸 Custom post type for managing gallery items. – 🎨 Works seamlessly with Elementor and any modern theme. – ⚙️ Lightweight, fast, and fully WordPress-native. Ideal for photographers, designers, agencies, and creators who want to **save time** and **enhance SEO visibility** through intelligent image management. ### Shortcode Usage To display your gallery anywhere on your site, use the following shortcode: [petruth_smart_gallery] This default shortcode will render the gallery using all the settings (columns, color, and visibility of the search/filter) defined in the plugin’s Admin settings page. Custom Attributes (Overriding Admin Settings) You can override the default Admin settings for specific instances of the gallery using the following optional attributes: Homepage Gallery (4 columns, limited to 8 items, no filters/search): [petruth_smart_gallery columns=”4″ qty=”8″ show_filter=”no”] You can insert the shortcode into: Gutenberg blocks (Shortcode block) Classic Editor Elementor (Shortcode widget) Or directly inside PHP templates using: echo do_shortcode(‘[petruth_smart_gallery]’); ### External Services **Petruth Smart Gallery** uses AI to generate intelligent image tittles, categories and description when set in the plugin settings. The plugin can still work without any AI API key. ### License This plugin is licensed under the GPLv2 or later. You are free to modify and redistribute it under the same license. ## Screenshots [⌊Gallery overview on frontend with filters and search bar⌉⌊Gallery overview on frontend with filters and search bar⌉[ Gallery overview on frontend with filters and search bar [⌊Gallery overview on frontend in light mode⌉⌊Gallery overview on frontend in light mode⌉[ Gallery overview on frontend in light mode [⌊Plugin settings in the WP admin dashboard⌉⌊Plugin settings in the WP admin dashboard⌉[ Plugin settings in the WP admin dashboard [⌊Frontend gallery lightbox when image is clicked on⌉⌊Frontend gallery lightbox when image is clicked on⌉[ Frontend gallery lightbox when image is clicked on [⌊Adding gallery images or items in the admin dashboard⌉⌊Adding gallery images or items in the admin dashboard⌉[ Adding gallery images or items in the admin dashboard [⌊Petruth Smart Gallery on mobile view.

Petruth Smart Gallery enqueues styles and scripts that work seamlessly with Elementor and the block editor. ### Does it affect my existing media library?
