It is compatible with various WordPress themes, including Timber, Border, and Lens by Pixelgrade.

User sentiment analysis

Users praise the plugin for its functionality, particularly for allowing clients to review and approve pictures online. It also offers valuable features like password protection and zip downloading, which photographers find useful in providing a professional service. Support from the developer, especially from Radu, is well-received for being helpful, fast, and thorough, with some users even mentioning new versions being created based on feedback. However, there are significant drawbacks. The plugin appears to only work seamlessly with specific premium themes, causing issues like broken layouts, 404 errors, and CSS problems when used with other themes. Users reported that these issues persist despite troubleshooting, leading some to abandon the plugin. Additionally, the plugin's dependency on custom CSS adjustments can be challenging for some users.

Apparently this is designed to only work with specific premium themes from the same developer and explicitly designed to not work with all wordpress sites.

Use a different plugin as this one has some major issues. – Created galleries display as 404 Error – If you can ever get it to show the gallery the layout is broken and doesn’t appear like it does in the demo. I tried this with multiple themes and the results are the same everytime. This topic was modified 2 years, 2 months ago by Matt Crawford.

Installed PixProof because the demo of it looked perfect. Unfortunately, permalinks to the proof gallery I created don’t work. I just get a 404 error. It’s a shame, but it seems the developers have abandoned this project.
