Install
This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.
Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:
wp plugin install https://github.com/stronganchor/3mmm-home-photo-sets/archive/refs/heads/main.zipUpdates itself. It ships its own updater (Plugin Update Checker), so new versions appear under Dashboard → Updates.
This plugin replaces the homepage ministry-photos WPBakery carousel with a structured photo-set gallery.
What it does:
- seeds the current seven homepage photo sets using the existing media IDs
- shows the newest sets first
- keeps each set together and stops before the configured max image count is exceeded
- gives each set a real heading, excerpt, and optional description instead of relying on caption-card images
- lets future updates happen through a simple
Photo Setsadmin menu - checks GitHub for plugin updates through the bundled plugin update checker
Usage:
- Install and activate the plugin.
- The homepage carousel with
el_class="ministry-photos"will be replaced automatically. - To update the gallery later, add or edit entries under
Photo Sets. - Publish new sets with their own post dates to control ordering.
