This JavaScript grid layout library enables you to create a ‘masonry’ style image gallery, where images get slotted together like stones in a wall. Masonry can be used with bootstrap, although it doesn’t always work seamlessly. This plugin is used all over the web, and is extremely robust and flexible, so it is worth spending some time getting it to work with bootstrap.

As mentioned, Masonry doesn’t always work seamlessly with bootstrap. Unfortunately, it has been known to conflict in particular with Bootstrap’s ‘Tabs widget’ component. In this article, Maria Antonietta Perna discusses these layout issues and explains how to resolve them. 

Isotope bootstrap image carousel provides a seamless way to filter and sort the images in your photo gallery. In the demo, a series of chemical elements can be sorted by type, name, symbol, and atomic number. I’m sure you can image many uses for the ability to filter and sort a collection of images, whether it’s by color, subject, type of image, and so on. 

The viewer shows items with a specific value, and hides the rest. Sorting rearranges the items based on the data (e.g. By name, by price, etc.)

It also provides a number of ways by which you can layout your simple image gallery, including the ‘masonry’ style, grid style, ‘packers’ style and more. 

This masonry html image gallery is an alternative to jQuery and JavaScript plugins - it uses css to create the effect. It distributes the images according to the number of columns you specify. It has the great advantage of being able to apply to any content, not just images, so you can have squares of text or other dynamic content that re-size and re-position themselves. This makes bootstrap thumbnail gallery great for magazine style layouts. 

Jonathan Cutrell explains how to use Salvatorre jquery lightbox gallery with Bootstrap to create a fluid ‘masonry’ style photo gallery — in just ten minutes. If you are a user of Bootstrap, this tutorial makes it incredible easy to turn your jquery gallery into a masonry gallery by using the css-only plugin. 

This is an extension to Blueimp lightbox image gallery, which is a touch-enabled responsive bootstrap gallery. It provides swipe, mouse and keyboard navigation to the image gallery html, and extends it with different transition effects, fullscreen functionality, and on-demand content loading. Blueimp is a gallery that also enables the display of many different content types, not just images and videos. 

Michael Soriano walks you through the process of setting up a bootstrap responsive gallery with modal or lightbox functionality. This in-depth tutorial is a great start for people who want to become more familiar with HTML and CSS and explains exactly how to develop the bootstrap lightbox gallery. 

In this tutorial, Brock Nunn walks you through the task of combining the PrettyPhoto jQuery lightbox plugin with the javascript image gallery slideshow. PrettyPhoto jquery gallery with thumbnails is a media ‘lightbox’ which supports images, videos, YouTube, iframes, hover effect and ajax.  There are extensions for drupal, asp, dreamweaver, joomla module.

Shuffle is a source Javascript plugin that enables you to categorize, sort and filter a responsive grid of items. These items don’t just include images and videos, but also text, dynamic content and so on.

This Wordpress plugin provides a set of image transition effects that can be applied to the bootstrap thumbnails/image gallery css component. These effects include rotation, color change, zoom, and so on. 

These plugins and tutorials should help you make the most of bootstrap and it’s amazing built-in functionality. If you are comfortable working with HTML, php, xml and CSS template you should have no problem applying any of these example effects to your website. 

However, what if you don’t even know where to begin with HTML, but you’re eager to build a dynamic, responsive website? The good news is that drag-and-drop website builders have come a long way. You no longer need to worry about clumsy builders that produce junky, bloated code. 

Mobiles is one of the best website builder software. It’s simple and easy to use, and means you don’t need to worry about editing HTML, CSS3 or Java Script — whilst still being able to create excellent, cutting edge websites that are responsive and sophisticated.  Create your photo album with ease.

Creating a Bootstrap Masonry Image Gallery by using Mobirise 

If you want the ability to add a Masonry style picture gallery to your site, you can use the WYSIWYG website creator Mobirise. You can download Mobirise bootstrap creator at https://mobirise.com/. 

How to add a mobile-friendly image gallery to your web page

1. Click the red ‘plus’ button in the bottom right corner of the app.
2. In the “Blocks” panel that appears, scroll down until you see the option to add a grid gallery. Note that you can also add additional content at this stage, building out the structure of your website ready to customize later.
3. You can drag the gallery block into the website, where it will be added with default content.
4. Use the floating menu on the image gallery with three icons. Click on the middle icon — a blue square gear — to edit the gallery block parameters.
   
   A new panel will appear with a set of options. These options include:
   Full Width — turn this on or off to adjust the width of the image gallery.
   Spacing — this allows you to choose whether the images nest next to each other with no spacing, or if each image has a margin around it.
   Background color — You can choose a color for the background of the image grid gallery.
   Images — This allows you to upload, change and re-order the images in the gallery.
   Remove — deleted the current image.
   
   
5. When you are finished, click on the Preview in browser button to see how the software looks online in your default browser.
6. Finally, click on the Publish button in the top navigation bar to publish your website.

Hi, Mobirise is improving all the time. Using version 2 on Windows 10. Would like to see options to vary number of columns on picture gallery block and options to have captions on pictures.

Mobirise:

Hi, thank your for the feedback! Your suggestions are sent to the developers.

Gayle

is their a way when they click on photo gallery pic and it opens up to larger photo, that larger photo cannot be downloaded when right clicked.

Claudio

Dear MobiRise,   I like.  I wanted to know you have a premium version? I would like to have more functions.  To place the menu anywhere else and have more colors in my buttons links.  The gallery is fabulous, but still I would like to be able to put imagenesc with link feature.  I am old computer and this has returned me to provide responsive web basiccas so I would like to invest in this technology and I commend to develop this free app.

Mobirise:

Hi, thank you for your interest in our products. Mobirise is still in beta, but we'll add more features, and there will be a pro version later.

Hello, I ran across something that I think is a bug… I am running Mobirise 1.9.9, I built a site and everything looks great, one problem though, the header menu containing the logo, looks great and works fine on a PC or an Android or iOS tablet, however when loaded in a phone, landscape or portrait (I tested with a Galaxy Note 2 5.7”screen), the text that is in the middle of the full screen image goes under the logo in the header. I had this same issue with another site and resolved it by adding a margin auto to a section of CSS related to the logo that had a margin of 8px. The code for this site does not have the same CSS, and I was unable to find it, so I wasn’t unable to fix the issue. Please advise…

Mobirise:

Hi, thank you for this report. I have sent this info to our developers, they will try to find a solution later.

It's a good program to do small projects with, like maybe a landing page, but there are several items that still need to be fixed before anyone can actually use it for a full website. There are too many issues that are occurring which require people to have to use an html editor to go fix them manually. Things that would a nice addition:

• To add a media gallery, the same as the photo gallery. So that people can have a small media galley for you tube, etc.
• Being able to resize items so that you can add more than one item per section ( for example if someone wanted to add a photo next to the contact form. You can resize the contact form to add a photo box next to it.)
• More mobile menus
• Either a ruler or grid line so people can see if they are going out of the viewing area when the site goes live. 
• being able to import bootstrap / html templates so you can use the items from those templates

Thank You. Have a Great Day.

Theresia

I have the following comments regarding the new blocks and the other blocks as well:

1. MENU BLOCK:

More parameters would be fine:

- more colors for the bootstrap responsive menu links

- adjust the alignment of the menu to the left, to the right or center

- adjust the alignment of the logo as well

- adjust the size of the logo

2. GALLERY BLOCK:

It looks awesome!

Some more parameters would be fine:

- add description and alt-text to the pictures

LIGHTBOX:

There is a problem with landscape pictures (on desktop computer). Those have a white space at the right side, whereas portrait pictures are shown OK (see screenshots „picture_landscape.jpg“ and „picture_portrait.jpg“).

3. FORMS BLOCK:

a) CONTACT FORM:

More parameters would be fine:

- possibility to add further input fields

- change name of fields (e.g. to German language)

- specify an email-address where the infos of the contact form should be sent

- add a captcha for security

- add „send button“ and „reset button“

The button which is now shown at the bottom of the contact form does not lead anywhere. And there is no possibility to add an email address and a subject.

b) NEWSLETTER FORM:

The button which is now shown at the bottom of the newsletter form does not lead anywhere. And there is no possibility to add an email-address and a subject.

4. FOOTERS BLOCK:

3rd block you offer (with a small contact form at the right side):

Additional parameters for the small contact form as above at contact form

5. LINKS in general:

More parameters would be fine:

- define color of links (basic and hover)

- choose to underlign links (basic and hover

6. BUTTONS in general:

More parameters would be fine:

- define color of buttons (basic and hover)

Mobirise: Thanks for the feedback. Your suggestions are sent to the developers and we try our best to improve the software. Please stay tuned!

Love it! Good timing, too. Have just been researching for…

• Responsive site builder (preferably Bootstrap)
• Which can publish a site to where I want it

…but I guess you knew that ;-) 

Mobirise looks like the thing! (Have been looking at Pingendo) Nice and simple to use. And feels solid and reliable.

A few things:

• What’s the cost?
• Need to be able to embed a Feedback Form – what are your plans here? (we host on pretty standard Windows & Linux servers)
• Image gallery, please – in at least two formats:

Grid layout of thumbs, each opening a scrollable modal window with image titles & description

Large single image, with title & description – scrollable

• Ability to embed custom code

Count me in if you need any testers.

Mobirise:

Hi, thanks for contacting us. The form and gallery blocks are embedded in the program. Please download the latest version of Mobirise from our site.

Maria

Hi, I just tried out the new Mobirise v1.9.7. Until now it was possible to replace the dummy-images in gallerys and image-blocks with my own images. Now it seems that the replacement of images is not any more possible. Perhaps there is something missing, or a bug? I re-installed Mobirise twice, restarted the computer, but this did not change things. Working on a Mac with Yosemite.

Mobirise:

Hi Maria, this bug is fixed, please download the latest version from our site!

Bob

I just updated to .9 version. I love the form section that you added as well as the gallery. Great job! However, one huge bug kept me from moving forward; When I opened up the new mobirise program an old project loaded (not all of its parts like background images but an old project nonetheless). I tried to delete the old project several ways to create a new project (photo gallery). I cleared the old project out by starting a “new project”. When I went to publish it the old project popped back in!! I then deleted the pages of the old project, and I put the sections of the old project in the trash and did everything I could to start a new blank project but every time I went to publish/save my new project, the old project popped back up in its place!! This is a new BIG bug. It did not exist during the last version (as I did two separate projects in that version).

On a positive note I really liked the ease with which I was able to add the formail section on my existing projects!! I hope that this is helpful and keep up the good work!!

Mobirise:

Hi Bob, thanks for contacting us! There was some problems with paths in our old versions, but now it should be ok. Please try out our latest version. Write back to us if you have any further questions or concerns. Our team is always happy to help.

Dennis

Hello, awesome Update ! like it a lot !

Gallery.

The gallery is very nice. It would be awesome to select a tumbnail and have a youtube video in the lightbox.

The sticky menu.

This one is huge!! :D :D thanks a lot!, maybe it would be nice that you'll be able to select a largeer detaild logo and a smaller version of the logo for when you scroll down. 

Experimenting with Mobirse and had some bugs I guess. For some odd reason the "company name" stays mobirise when preview in brower or publish…I'll keep you informd if I find something else.

Mobirise:

Hi Dennis, there is a larger logo now and the bug with editing a company name is fixed. Please download the latest version of Mobirise from our site!

Franco

Hi, in the version 1.9.7 I cannot change the background image in the blocs and in the gallery impossible to change the photos. In a bloc, when I click on the background image thumbnail, the Finder window opens, I select the image, click open button > nothing happen, the Finder window close and the sample image provided by Mobirise remains. Same with the photos in gallery. Mobirise is installed on my iMac OSX Yosemite v10.10.5. I uninstall the previous version of Mobirise, install fresh new v1.9.7, it does not solve the problem.

Mobirise:

Hi Franco, please download the latest version of Mobirise from our site: https://mobirise.com/ This issue was fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Doug Peters

This is a wonderful development project. I thank you! I am more of a purist code designer, but with the advent of HTML5 and CSS3 things got tough and the bug where you couldn't have any spaces between divs (or having to use comments, or set the font size to 0) always upset me and corrupted the beauty of the code (I see it as a bug in HTML because margin:0 on both divs doesn't work!). It frustrated me to no end and I lost my love for designing standardized, best practices coded websites. Now you arm me with tricks of the trade I don't have to research forever.

I'll give it 5 stars on Google Play asap (already did in another account).  

I'll be spreading the news about Mobirise. After all, the best news is word-of-mouth, right? Well, it's digital word-of-mouth, telling everyone about it in my design groups and communities as I visit them and get that opportunity.

OK, enough of that, I have a lot of websites that I need to get online.  

User

I have some opinion for you to get Mobirise web builder into better. hope you don't mind.

First,

Can you provide a save function for all users, because Mobirise will auto save files each time editing. Perhaps, create a save file function for user, so user can save the web editor by themselve. It will be stable for your editor, perhaps.

On the other hand, can you please remove your web URL in the browser to view source at the top for "Site made with Mobirise Web Builder v2.5.2, https://mobirise.com " This is will make all website isn't look into own website. Hope you can change it and provide this feature.

Second, 

Can you please check the logo position in the header for any smartphone, the image of logo too big for any smartphone site, and will make the drop down button hard to press, and mobirise works a bit slow in smartphone. Please upgrade and best fix in any smartphone and table site view.

Third, 

Can Mobirise provide more contact form design with more fill up details, more better galleries slider and good button design? Mobirise button design is too boring and not professional. In additional, please provide a better animation for CSS button design, text design, galleries slider effect and images pop-up design. These animated design will be more attractive for visitors.

I really wish and 100% support for Mobirise should provide a 100% full and free HTML coding editor for all users to change the coding in Mobirise web builder. On the above features will make Mobirise web builder become professional and even beautiful.

As a lot of people love Wordpress web builder, because it has a free HTML coding editor. I wish Mobirise will has this as very sooner. 

Mobirise:

Thanks for the feedback! You can go to the site options and you will an ‘Export’ button there. Then you can import your saved project to the Mobirise application at any time.

We always improve our program so please stay tuned!
