11 Photoblogging Plugins for WordPress

photoplug

On Monday I listed 7 WordPress themes for photoblogs. Now that the photoblog is set up and the theme selected I now have 11 WordPress plugins that can enhance or add extra features to the photoblog.

 

 

  1. Altpwa – If you use Picasa web albums, this plugin will allow you to embed the albums into your WordPress site. Does anyone use Picasa web albums? I use Picasa to organize my photos but use flickr for online images storage.

  2. AWSOM – AWSOM is an easy to manage image gallery for your WordPress blog. It features “drop and go” functionality, ability to sort in a variety of ways, and custom image resizing and display.
  3. ExZO – ExZo works with .jpg images and will show the EXIF data for the image. This plugin will also zoom the image.
  4. FAlbum – This plugin displays your flickr photos and photosets on your blog.
  5. Fotobook – If you store your photo albums on Facebook, you can use this plugin to pull them into WordPress.

  6. Gallery Widget – Gallery Widget can pull random or latest image from media library to the sidebar or within the template.
  7. Lazyest Gallery – This plugin contains a lot of features – so many that it may be the only plugin that you need. Features include, comments per image, automatic thumbnail and slide creation, jquery slideshow, random image widgets, exif data and much more.
  8. mBox – This plugin makes it easy to include Slideshow galleries in WordPress posts.
  9. NextGen Gallery – This may be the most well known gallery plugin for WordPress
  10. PhotoQ – PhotoQ doesn’t work as a gallery or enhance images in any way but increases the photoblog functionality of WordPress. It adds batch image upload, automated posting of photo posts, exif metadata, watermarking, and much more.
  11. Shutter Reloaded – This plugin is an image viewer that works much like Lightbox but has a much smaller footprint and does not require any external libraries.
