Introduction

Visual Portfolio is a WordPress plugin for galleries and portfolios. It adds a Visual Portfolio block that shows posts, projects, images or, with Pro, taxonomy terms and social feeds in masonry, grid, tiles, justified or slider layouts, with a lightbox, filter, sort and pagination. It also adds a Project post type with categories and tags, and a Portfolio page that lists them.

Visual Portfolio Pro is an extension of the free plugin. It adds social feeds, taxonomy grids, albums, video items, proofing, watermarks and other protection, advanced click actions, skin effects and white label. Pro contains the free plugin, so it is installed as one plugin. See Free vs Pro.
