Display gallery on front page

  • Will be having a few pages of reviews and I want small previews (picture and a short text) to be displayed, almost as in a gallery, on the front page.

    How can I do that?

  • Hi there! If your theme allows you to use the block editor on the homepage, there is a gallery block which might suit your purposes:

    Alternatively, there may be plugins that are specifically designed for showing reviews/testimonials. One of those might work for you as well:

    Thanks man, yes it can work, but the main problem is, it seems, there is no way to link the gallery pictures to a page on my website, which I find strange.

    I am using “affiliate bloglets” theme

    The best thing would be to be able to add previews (a picture with a little text snippet) of my pages in a gallery like style on my front page. And when you click on the preview, it takes you to the page.

    I tried to use the regular block gallery, and make a link from the picture to a page myself, and it says something is wrong, and it auto correct itself and automatically link to the picture. Cannot be done?

    I don’t want to show testinonials, I myself will review stuff, put it on a static pages, and make preview from each page on the front page in form of a grid/gallery/thumbnail thing

    Ah yes, I see what you mean. The Gallery block does not yet support linking to other pages. That’s a frequent request though, and it’s possible that’ll be added in the future.

    In the meantime, I know that some 3rd party gallery blocks allow you to add a separate link —?I’ve done this before using the CoBlocks galleries:

    Thank you, I think I have been able to find a way to make it work with Coblocks

    Just curious, which gallery did you use?
