## Description

**WPG2Mod** is **not** an image gallery plugin – but merely a _gallery converter_.

WPG2Mod scans your WordPress blog looking for ‘native’ WPG shortcodes inside your
posts and pages. Based on the WPG attributes (i.e. image IDs) WPG2Mod creates equivalent
[Modula galleries](https://wordpress.org/plugins/modula-best-grid-gallery/). The
import process starts as soon as you press the ‘`Import WPG`‘ button.

#### Excluding Post Types

Specific post types can be excluded from scan and conversion. Usually it makes sense
to exclude ‘`attachment, nav_menu_item, and revisions`‘ from the conversion process.

#### Identifying imported Galleries

Modula Galleries imported by WPG2Mod can easily be identified by their titles. They
start with the prefix ‘`GEN-MG-`‘ followed by the post ID of the original WPG post.
The status of WPG2Mod generated Modula galleries (=custom post type) is ‘`draft`‘.

#### Modula Gallery Settings

WPG2Mod either uses default settings for the generated galleries or the settings
of a specific Modula gallery named ‘_`setting-template`_‘. This specific Modula 
gallery must have been created by the user before it can be referenced by the import
process.

#### Supporting the Gallery Migration

In addition to Modula galleries WPG2Mod creates a so-called ‘_`Migration Support
Post (MSP)`_‘ having the status ‘`draft`‘. This post is a standard WordPress post
that can be located easily on your admin post page. The MSP consists of hyperlinks
to all source posts with their associated Modula gallery shortcode. The MSP is intended
to support the (manual) replacement of WPG shortcodes by Modula shortcodes inside
the source post.

The MSP will be re-generated with every ‘`Import WPG`‘ action.

#### On-the-fly Conversion

As soon as the WPG have been imported WPG2Mod can expand the WPG shortcodes in your
posts on-the-fly to a corresponding Modula image gallery. If the ‘_`On-the-fly WP
Gallery Conversion`_‘ option has been selected all WPG shortcodes will be unfolded
as Modula galleries.

#### Coexistence of WordPress and Modula Galleries

Actually, WPG and Modula image galleries can coexist in the same blog. The ‘`On-
the-Fly-Setting`‘ determines the default behaviour. If set all WPG will be displayed
as Modula galleries.

More fine-tuning can be achieved by an additional attribute for the WPG shortcode
introduced by WPG2Mod. A typical WPG shortcode might look like this: [`gallery ids
="109,98,99,100,101,102" link="file" columns="4"`]

Adding the attribute ‘_`mod`_‘ controls if a Modula gallery should be displayed 
instead. The value ‘_`yes`_‘ enables gallery conversion and ‘_`no`_‘ disables it.

The following example [`gallery ids="109,98,99,100,101,102" link="file" columns="
4" mod="no"`] **disables** on-the-fly gallery conversion for this WPG.

#### Caution

_‘`Import WPG`‘ can be used several times. Previously generated Modula galleries
and the ‘`Migration Support Post`‘ will be overwitten, though. If you want to keep
a previously generated and fine-tuned Modula gallery you should rename it (give 
it a new title) before running ‘`Import WPG`‘ again._

## Installation

The WPG2Mod plugin can be installed like any other WordPress plugin. No specific
procedures apply.

After a succesful installation you should find the submenu item ‘_`WPG2Mod`_‘ inside
the ‘`Modula`‘ main menu.

If the Modula gallery plugin should not have been installed (which does not make
too much sense) the submenu item ‘_`WPG2Mod`_‘ will be located inside the ‘`Settings`‘
menu.

#### Note

_WPG2Mod has been tested with Modula Image Gallery versions 2.x._

## FAQ

  Why does WPG2Mod not display a gallery?

WPG2Mod is **not** an image gallery plugin but merely a tool to convert existing
WordPress image galleries into Modula galleries.
 After converting WordPress galleries
with WPG2Mod you need the free (or premium) version of Modula to display your galleries.

  Does WPG2Mod work with ClassicPress?

Yes, absolutely! WPG2Mod has been developed on [ClassicPress](https://www.classicpress.net/).

  Does WPG2Mod work with Gutenberg Gallery Blocks?

No. Please let me know, if there is an interest.

Just to let you know. I am fully aware that being compatible with ClassicPress does
not necessarily justify a 5 star rating. 😉 Unfortunately I did not find a “neutral”
option to get rid of the bad default forum comment that might discourage users to
install WPG2Mod.
