Squarespace Gallery & Media Plugins

42

Squarespace ships with decent gallery sections, but they run out of road quickly: limited layouts, no proper lightbox on some blocks and little control over video. The gallery and media plugins in this collection add masonry grids, image lightboxes, video controls, PDF flipbooks and richer media presentation, mostly through simple code snippets from developers such as Will Myers, SQSPThemes and Elfsight.

Because we build Squarespace sites for clients through our Platinum Partner agency, every tool listed here has been chosen with real portfolios and product imagery in mind, not just demo screenshots. Where two plugins overlap, the listings say so plainly and point you to the better fit for your use case.
