Give your community a dedicated space to share photographs, artwork, videos and audio. Media Gallery organizes contributions into albums and categories, with a responsive grid, comments, star ratings and privacy controls.

Members can build their own albums, explore community media and interact with individual items, while administrators control submissions and gallery settings. Free to use on any Forovanta board.

Current beta status: The reported Gallery HTTP 500 remains unresolved, so this feature list should not be treated as confirmation that the installed gallery is working.
