Photo Gallery "Grid" Block

The Gutenberg block Photo Gallery “Grid” (immomakler/gallery-grid) showed a property’s images in blocks of four photos with an alternating arrangement. This layout is now available as the Mosaic static layout in the Property Gallery block – with the same options, plus a lightbox, hover animation and corner rounding. The Photo Gallery “Grid” block is therefore no longer offered in the block inserter.

  1. Select the block

    In your website’s backend (wp-admin), open the page or template containing the block and click the Photo Gallery “Grid” block. A note in the Layout side panel points to the conversion.

  2. Convert

    Click the block icon (left) in the block’s toolbar and select Property Gallery. The block is replaced; the Static presentation and Mosaic layout are already selected.

  3. Save

    Update the page. The frontend display stays the same, and clicking a photo now opens the lightbox.
