Lots of internal changes in the plugin for this release plus some nice new features and improvements on the front-end. Since a lot has changed, we're doing a short beta while we test a few things to look for any bugs that may still be flying around.

giphy New Features

  • Automatic captioning for WordPress images and gallery items (Including Jetpack Galleries)
  • Spanish language translation

Enhancements

  • Updated Featherlight to 1.3.3
  • Improved gallery styles on desktop and mobile devices
  • Streamlined overall styles
  • Added SVG icons for more visual consistency across various platforms

Bug Fixes

  • Improved handling of images when certain caching plugins are enabled
  • Prevented gallery arrows from being hijacked by WP Emoji
  • Fixed a bug which allowed multiple light boxes to be opened using keyboard commands

Developer Stuff

  • Added a wp_featherlight_captions filter to control auto-captioning. Filter it to false to disable captions.
  • Re-structured the plugin's internal code base and deprecated plugin constants
  • Added Grunt and Bower the plugin to allow easier updates and releases in the future

If you were previously using the plugin's constant values for one thing or another, they will continue to work for now but may be removed at some point down the road. It's recommended that you use the main plugin class' getter methods to retrieve information about the plugin such as the version, directory, and anything else you may need which was previously stored in constant values.

If you have the chance to test this before we release it, we're always looking for feedback! If you have any questions, suggestions, or find any issues just open an issue and let us know.
