More Info...Justified Image Grid ..
This responsive WordPress gallery plugin aligns your thumbnails into a justified grid using jQuery. Flickr and Google both feature images like this. Present your galleries in an eye-catching and unique new way! It can replace the standard WP galleries [gallery] as [justified_image_grid] with lots of new features and options. WordPress will manage the galleries and this plugin will display them. Or alternatively you can load images from Facebook, Flickr, Instagram or use NextGEN gallery as an image manager/source. Or just make a responsive banner of Recent posts using their featured images! Also works with custom post types. Filter the thumbnails by tags or any taxonomy!
Control every aspect: row height, appearance, special effects like desaturation, color overlay with magnifier icon, borders, multiple captions, free and premium lightboxes, mouse activated animation… It’s easy to install and comes with 18 presets out of the box. The setup is a breeze with two admin areas: the plugin settings and the Shortcode Editor (you can edit your previously generated shortcodes!). About 200 settings are spread over a tabbed interface in two admin areas for quick access. The settings are available to change on a per gallery basis, extending the global settings and presets. No coding skills are required. There is no need to remember shortcode attributes/values because of the Shortcode Editor that has examples and contextual help.
Your download includes an extensive 50 pages PDF documentation with full settings reference, troubleshooting guide and clickable bookmarks – table of contents. There are also some narrated HD videos available. An excellent, fast-response support is provided with guaranteed reply. It covers installation, technical and compatibility issues.Buy with confidence, the author is here to help! 
Extended license doesn’t cover multiple uses! You need to purchase a regular or an extended license for every site. You can’t resell the plugin as part of a stock theme, the extended license doesn’t allow you to do that.

Updates / Changelog
What’s next?- An update is planned, it is at least a month away. Some new narrated HD videos for you to learn the plugin.
- New setting: Facebook overview caching time – because overview was slow when showing a large amount of albums
- Improved: Some contextual help changes
- Bugfix: Filtering was really really slow, fixed!
- Bugfix: Aspect ratio calculation was rounded, now it’s properly precise
- Bugfix: Facebook overview caching time was just a few hours and couldn’t be set
- Bugfix: Flickr “Look for and allow hi-res photos” feature didn’t work properly
- Bugfix: Using a blank page to create a photo wall the grid would only display one very long row (only when using css3-mediaqueries.js)
- Updated: Documentation, Localization
- New image source: Instagram, available options:
- Your feed (what appears to you, by others)
- Your recent photos
- Photos you like
- Someone else’s recent photos (with user search)
- Recent photos by a tag (with tag search)
- Recent photos from a location (just paste a url from Worldcam)
- Other available features: Any number of images, Instagram data caching, Cache purging, Link back to Instagram, Mandatory authentication, Access token expiry notification
- New feature: Filtering. Ability to choose any taxonomy and use their terms as a set of Buttons or Tag cloud above the grid, to narrow images on the fly. Examples: Post and WP image tags and categories; NextGEN, Instagram and Flickr tags, Custom post types’ custom taxonomies e.g. WooCommerce; Media Library Assistant custom image taxonomies… Buttons and the Tag cloud are well styleable.
- New feature: Facebook overview: Allows you to select the entire collection of albums of a profile or page automatically and explore those albums on a different page – all using Justified Image Grid
- Includes new settings such as Facebook breadcrumbs, renameable overview slug, works with or without permalink automatically, works on the front page as well.
- Ability to open the Facebook albums in the lightbox, without leaving the page is also included.
- New feature: Aspect ratio: Crop to a fixed aspect ratio for those that prefer their thumbnails cropped to create regular looking galleries that are still automatically scaled and responsive
- New feature: Randomize thumbnail width to make a grid of same-aspect-ratio images look more interesting by automatically cropping or extending by a random amount in a given range
- New feature: Proper inpidual Facebook like with a further-customized prettyPhoto. With the new custom prettyPhoto you are finally able to:
- Like an image on Facebook and see its own thumbnail
- Like a photo/video/iframe in a randomly ordered or regularly updated grid, and its unique URL will stay the same regardless of its numerical position
- When following the liked content on Facebook, prettyPhoto will re-open the content properly
- These new features are under the ‘Advanced deeplinking’ feature and are much less likely to be disabled by other plugins
- They only work with Justified Image Grid as there are server-side components to the new feature
- The generated and shared prettyPhoto deeplink URLs are backwards compatible
- When you use custom link rel to rename ‘prettyPhoto’ in the URL, e.g. ‘mygallery’, the deeplinking will still work and prettyPhoto will re-open
- Use the prev/next mini buttons on videos and iframes not just photos
- Point a thumbnail to open a different picture in the lightbox and still have prev/next arrows
- Added: 3 new settings to prettyPhoto so you don’t need to ‘code’ these manually (most often asked for/changed):
- prettyPhoto themes (you can choose from five themes with a setting, available to change on a per grid basis) – social sharing tools’ margin fixed in the CSS for the other themes
- prettyPhoto social tools toggle (enable or disable them, available to change on a per grid basis)
- prettyPhoto deeplinking (advanced, as mentioned abovee), ability to revert to the simple mode or turn it off
- Ability to track photo views as events with Google Analytics in prettyPhoto
- Added: ‘Disable cropping’ an option to disregard the minimum row height imposed by row height deviation (can also lock your aspect ratio if set)
- Added: New ‘Incomplete last row’ mode, ‘Flexible Match’, that combines the benefits of matching the last row to the previous and hiding orphan rows in case of Load More unless it’s the very last. This is good for the new Aspect Ratio setting + Load More. This is automatically activated if you left the setting on Normal.
- Added: XML Sitemap compatibility with the WordPress SEO plugin by Joost de Valk. It can be disabled. Images from external sources are not added. This improves SEO!
- Added: Better SEO: Images are now included in a noscript tag instead of just being linked to. This also means images are visible without Javascript, show up as selectable options when sharing the page with Facebook.
- Added: Custom CSS + a CSS class that allows you to distingush between instances of JIG by the hash of shortcode attributes – example: jig-49fc9d5ef70d49171974bb8d8aa0deff
- Added: A default, unlimited setting for Shortcode Editor minimum role (useful for Multisite)
- Added: Compatibility for very old NextGEN setups where some images have no metadata in the database
- Added: Take over NextGEN shortcodes: Optional ability to act in place of: nggallery, nggalbum, album, nggtags, random, recent, singlepic – they are selectable inpidually
- Added: Nextgen random images (display some random images of a gallery or regardless of gallery – the limit is applied after randomization)
- Added to Recent posts: you can now display pages belonging to a page and all of its descendants, narrowable by depth
- Added: Load More can be set to be used only on mobile devices (a new setting)
- Added: PHP constant JIG_SKIP_PRETTYPHOTO to define in your theme when JIG shouldn’t load its own prettyPhoto
- Added: Option to display NextGEN gallery/album descriptions between the breadcrumb and the grid
- Added: Option to prevent usually unnecessary NextGEN files from loading
- Improved: Load More button got enhanced looks, gradient and border radius anda bit nicer color. Dark skin added. Ability to switch between the light and the dark via two reset options.
- Improved: Jetpack Photon (when active) is enabled on thumbnails that were previously generated by TimThumb, this enables Retina Ready on thumbs from Facebook, Flickr, Instagram too.
- Improved: Thumbnail size calculations are unified for all image sources. This results in no more blurry thumbnails (that happened in some cases).
- Improved: All the inpidual (per-instance) In-page Style Tags have been merged into one, some rules that are not instance specific have changed to be added only once, they are minified using whitespac
e removal, and put into the footer.- Most importantly it allows you to have unlimited instances of JIG in IE (it has a CSS limit of 32 and In-page Style Tags count as one, per tag)
- This helps with filters that apply themselves to content (e.g. Hyphenator JS plugin)
- This somewhat improves speed
- Improved: CURL is checked when activating the plugin, notifying user that Jetpack Photon and Download link features are affected
- Improved: Flickr feature: The Add users button is only active when you have an API key. Previously it was a bit confusing.
- Improved: Flickr feature: If some photos are not shown because they are too small, this is noted after the gallery with instructions to resolve the issue. This reduces confusion in a few cases when you see fewer photos than expected. The error message can be disabled. Upscaling is possible now. Higher than 1024px pictures are now taken into account when looking for an image to create the thumbnail from.
- Improved: Flickr feature: The plugin can now look for higher than 1024px images.
- Improved: ng_recent_images and ng_random_images have an automatic limit, 25, if it was not set or set to unlimited
- Improved: Facebook feature: The error “(#4) Application request limit reached” is now handled by trying to add the Page with an access token.
- Improved: Multiple custom post types can now be used together for Recent Posts
- Improved admin areas:
- All texts and contextual help is rewritten to form complete sentences. Obsolete texts are removed/changed.
- Some settings tabs are now shown with mini sub-sections to make these settings more logical and these settings have been reordered in both the plugin’s setting and the Shortcode Editor
- Color lines in the settings and the Shortcode Editor for each tab, the blue tint is removed from the background color, css transitions for highlighting current row, SCE tabs are now in two rows
- ‘All of the images have failed to load.’ error message is more readable.
- Flash of unstyled content of the Shortcode Editor is solved, a loading progress bar is displayed.
- Developer link settings are merged with General settings and other reordering and reorganization of some settings throughout; only in SCE, TimThumb tab is merged with General Settings.
- Color picker helper, Like button, logo, helpful links on the top.
- Preset selection in the plugin’s settings now pops up a confirm dialog if you want to overwrite your styling settings.
- Changed: NextGEN no tag error message changed to “No images could be found with that tag.” from “There are no NextGEN images that are tagged like that.” (user request) Point is that this way the plugin could be used to search NextGEN images (with some custom code).
- Bugfix: Error checking wasn’t working on IE8 in some cases, resulting false positives and not loading any image, this is now fixed.
- Bugfix: Error checking for Flickr images weren’t working properly, resulting in duplicate images and a broken grid if one image failed to load.
- Bugfix: Error checking for Jetpack Photon images weren’t working properly, this was fixed as well.

- Bugfix: When using Jetpack and CURL is required to get remote image dimensions, check for CURL is added to not generate an error
- Bugfix: Overlay icon URL is now used properly
- Bugfix: The class gallery-caption is no longer added to the parent container of JIG when Carousel and Load More features are used together (preventing Carousel when clicking outside a thumbnail is now solved in an other way)
- Bugfix: When validating authenticated Facebook user when it was just added and the changes haven’t been saved yet, the ‘Communicating with Facebook’ would be stuck.
- Bugfix: Facebook feature: When adding a user, sometimes ‘Access token acquisition’ error would show up even though all went fine.

- Added: ‘Responsive fallback, automatic’ width mode setting that has a logic of working way better with tabs and other places where the ‘element is too thin’ error appeared – they can use the width of the closest related, working grid (usually in the first tab)
- Added: Attachments’ tags and categories filter, also compatible with Media Library Assistant’s pre-defined Att. Categories and Att. Tags. , and the Media Categories plugin. In addition there is a (built-in, toggleable, simple) solution to enable regular WP tags and categories taxonomy for images in the library. All in all this means you can tag WP images, just like NextGEN, and display a gallery based on the tag.
