FAQ

How does the WordPress pdf gallery plugin work?

This free WordPress pdf gallery plugin adds a CatFolders Document Gallery block in Gutenberg. You can use it to create a WP document library on the front-end. Once you have published the documents and other files to the gallery, your website visitors can search, sort, preview, view all documents, or download files very quickly. It helps retain traffic and boost engagement on your WordPress website.

Can’t upload images or files to WordPress media library?

No worries, these things happen. Please check out how to troubleshoot WordPress media library not loading or upload documents to WordPress media library.

Is there a limit to the number of documents I can display on WordPress page/post?

There’s no limit to how many attachments and files you can add to a folder. Therefore, no limit on the number of documents per page/post! This CatFolders Document Gallery plugin is optimized with smart pagination so the users can go back and forth between the pages very quickly without reloading page.

Does it support hierarchical folders?

If you’re using CatFolders – WP Media Folders free version, which doesn’t create subfolders, it won’t be displaying multiple folders on the front-end. However, you can bulk-select folders using Ctrl/Command or Shift key and display all files contained in those folders.
Regarding showing the folder tree structure on the front-end, we are considering it and will implement it as soon as we can.

How to create a collapsible document gallery?

In Gutenberg, there’s a built-in block called Details and you can use it to create a collapsible section. Inside the section, just add a CatFolders Document Gallery block, and you will have collapsible lists of document galleries.

Can the document gallery display PDF first pages as thumbnails?

Yes, as long as your website’s server is properly configured with ImageMagick and GhostScript, which generates the first page image of PDF in the WordPress media library, it will be displayed on the front-end accordingly.

Can I request to add more features to this plugin?

So you want us to add further integrations such as Elementor pdf gallery, and others? To put it into consideration, please submit your ideas to CatFolders feature requests.

I was looking for a plugin to easily upload PDF files to the website, display them on a web page and be able to open these pdf’s in a pop-up. These Catfolders Gallery plugins make this so easy. Thank you so much for this great plugin.

I recently incorporated the “CatFolders Document Gallery” as an addon to the “CatFolders – WP Media Folders” and I must say, it’s a game changer. What sets this plugin apart is its commitment to accessibility. In today’s digital landscape, ensuring accessibility isn’t just a gesture but a necessity. This not only broadens the audience reach but also resonates with the developer’s intent to provide an inclusive web experience. Its design, characterized by modernity and user-friendliness, makes document management feel seamless. What’s commendable is how flawlessly it performs on mobile devices, an essential trait given our increasing reliance on mobile computing. The feature that allows the creation and display of dynamic download lists simplifies the sharing and management of a multitude of document types, from PDFs to other formats. Another highlight is the user-centric Gutenberg block, which streamlines the addition of files into posts or pages. While the plugin in its current form is highly intuitive, I’d love to see a few more customization options in future updates. Specifically, having the flexibility to toggle features like search or folder titles on and off would be a valuable addition. In conclusion, the “CatFolders Document Gallery” is a must-have for anyone looking to upscale their WordPress media management in a stylish and efficient manner. Kudos to the development team for crafting such an exceptional tool!
