Easy Photo Publisher

Descripción

Easy Photo Publisher complements the Adobe Lightroom Classic add-on Easy WordPress Publisher.
Together they form a full publishing pipeline: send images directly from Lightroom to your WordPress site,
update or replace them later, and (optionally) create blog posts using those images.

Highlights
– Direct publish from Lightroom Classic via the companion LrC module
– Create / update / delete media via a simple REST API
– Optional post creation with visibility control and Featured Image
– Gallery Shortcode: [wpdet_gallery] with taxonomy filters, sizing and a11y-friendly captions
– Accessible lightbox (keyboard/ARIA aware), toggled per shortcode
– Media taxonomies: enable Categories and Tags on attachments
– Theme template overrides (HTML-only)
– i18n-ready (easy-wp-publisher)

Quick Start

  1. In Lightroom Classic, publish an image using the «Easy WordPress Publisher» service.
  2. The image appears in your WordPress Media Library.
  3. On any page or post, insert the gallery shortcode:

[wpdet_gallery category=»Portugal» limit=»-1″ order=»DESC» min_width=»240px» gap=»1.5rem» size=»large» class=»» showcaption=»true» lightbox=»true»]

  • limit=»-1″ shows all matching images
  • showcaption=»true|false» toggles captions
  • lightbox=»true|false» enables the accessible lightbox

Shortcode Reference: [wpdet_gallery]

Attributes
category — Category ID or slug to filter attachments (requires media taxonomies)
tags — CSV of tag slugs (e.g. tags="portugal,coast")
limit — Number of images (default 12). Use -1 for all.
orderASC or DESC (default DESC)
sizethumbnail|medium|large|full (or any registered image size)
min_width — Grid minimum width (CSS value, default 200px)
gap — Grid gap (CSS value, default 1.5rem)
class — Extra CSS classes on the wrapper
showcaptiontrue|false (default true)
lightboxtrue|false (default true)

Markup & Styles

  • Wrapper template: templates/wrapper.php
  • Item template: templates/gallery.php
  • CSS: templates/css/wpdet-gallery.css
  • Lightbox CSS/JS autoload when lightbox="true"

Theme overrides (HTML-only)

your-theme/
└── wpdet/
└── templates/
├── wrapper.php (uses tokens: {items}, {min_width}, {gap}, {extra_class})
└── gallery.php (uses tokens: {link_open}, {img}, {link_close}, {caption})

If present in a child theme, it’s used first; then the parent theme; finally the plugin fallback.

Accessibility

  • Lightbox uses proper roles (role=»dialog»), aria-modal, labelled controls, focus trapping, and Esc to close.
  • Close button is keyboard-operable (Enter/Space) and returns focus to the trigger.
  • Captions are announced via a polite live region.

Media Taxonomies (Categories/Tags on Attachments)

Enable in Settings From Image to WordPress to use core Categories and Tags on media items. This allows taxonomy-filtered galleries.
– Works with the shortcode filters (category, tags)
– Adds taxonomy UI to the Media screens (without duplicating existing columns)

Validation

  • MIME types: image/jpeg, image/png, image/webp, image/avif
  • Max size: ~25 MB (configurable in code)

FAQ

Do I need the Lightroom Classic module?

Yes. This WordPress plugin exposes REST endpoints and gallery features; the LrC module performs the upload.

Can I show all images in a category?

Yes, set limit="-1" in the shortcode.

How do captions work?

Captions come from the attachment’s “Caption” (post excerpt). Toggle with showcaption="true|false".

Can I change the HTML without touching PHP?

Yes. Override the template files in your theme using the placeholder tokens described below.
