Envira Gallery Featured Content Addon

Description

The Featured Content addon adds a widget to Envira Gallery capable of displaying, in any part of the theme, a selection of images marked as featured within existing galleries. This extension connects posts, pages, and sidebars to the original galleries, providing a single point of management and eliminating the manual duplication of images in generic media widgets.

Who It’s For?
