Create modern Bento-style image compositions with a prominent main image, secondary images, an additional-photo counter and a full-screen lightbox — without relying on an external page builder. The block can use images selected manually from the WordPress Media Library or load them dynamically from an ACF Gallery field attached to the current post. Manual images can also be used as an optional fallback when the ACF field is empty. #### ✨ Why Bento Grid Gallery? Bento Grid Gallery is designed to keep image galleries simple, visual and fast. * Modern Bento-style composition * Native WordPress block editor integration * No external gallery framework required * Dynamic ACF Gallery source * Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet and mobile * Full-screen lightbox with navigation and thumbnails * Server-side rendering * DB Solution HUB integration #### 🧩 WordPress Native Built to work naturally with WordPress and Gutenberg. The plugin uses native WordPress APIs, the Media Library and block registration through `block.json`. Editor-specific presentation is loaded through the block editor stylesheet, making the block compatible with the iframe-based post editor architecture used by WordPress 7.1. #### 🖼️ Flexible Image Sources Choose how each gallery gets its images: * Manual selection from the WordPress Media Library * Dynamic ACF Gallery field * Configurable ACF field name * Automatic current-post context * Support for common ACF Gallery return formats based on attachment IDs or image arrays * Optional manual-gallery fallback when the ACF field is empty #### 🚀 Performance First Bento Grid Gallery keeps the frontend lightweight. * Optimized WordPress image sizes * No unnecessary frontend framework * Dynamic server-side block rendering * Lightbox assets loaded only where required * Responsive output designed for modern devices #### 📱 Responsive by Design The gallery automatically adapts to different screen sizes. You can configure desktop height and column count while the frontend layout adjusts for tablet and mobile devices. #### 🔍 Integrated Lightbox Visitors can open images in a full-screen viewer with: * Previous / next navigation * Thumbnail navigation * Image counter * Keyboard-friendly controls * Responsive presentation #### 🛠️ Support & Development Need help, report an issue or have an idea for Bento Grid Gallery?
