Gallery page at wordpress? - wordpress

I got a problem :/
I have a plugins for the users can send files for my media gallery, this is working perfeclty, but, I want to show my media library in a page or post of wordpress. This is possible ?
I guess i need a plugin or script right ? Thx :D

I dont know if you are talking about wordpress.com or wordpress.org but it should be the same.
Use the [gallery] shortcode in your page/post and it will output your images from your media library. You can specify images by using their id's, read more about it here:

If you want to display other file formats, it is possible.

How to make media section?

Many Wordpress themes have a section that contain gallery, images, video etc.
I want to create something like this. But I don't know how should I do it.
Should I create a custom post type for this media section only and then query it?
Should I query posts from default post type?
Or just create a static page with media items and then include it to the homepage?
Maybe create a shortcode?
What is the most appropriate way to do this? How the most of developers do it?
Please, help me.
There are many free and premium gallery plugins available for same work. All you have to do is implement the shortcode in your page where you want to display the media,

wordpress preview demo plugin

I've started seeing on wordpress theme sites with the ability to preview a theme on the same page, I've tried searching for the plugin but I can't find any - I'm assuming its an iframe but I could be mistaken. Has anyone come across this before and whats the solution as I want to be able to create this for myself?
many thanks
Check out the Theme Test Drive plugin.
Once activated, you should be able to combine the preview URLs (http://www.myblog.com/?theme=Default) with iframes and/or whatever lightbox solution you prefer.

Wordpress plugins for making gallery

I wish to make a gallery similar to http://welovewp.com
Can anyone guess, how this is made ?
Is there any already existing plugin or do we need to code for that ourselves.
Thanks :)
Some gallery plugins for WP:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-gallery-plugin/screenshots/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/
For an extensive list of gallery plugins, try the WordPress.org plugins site:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/
BTW, the site you're linking to doesn't seem to be using a gallery plugin.
They're using a list of posts with a featured image and URL styled in HTML & CSS.
Indranil has given you options for generating galleries out of photos stored on your server. If your photos are stored on some photo sharing website, you'll have search for those kind of specific plugins.
For example, if your photos are stored on Flickr, you can try any of these 3 plugins -
Awesome Flickr Gallery
Slickr-Flickr
Flickr Gallery

Wordpress Gallery

This website is based on wordpress, I wonder which plugin/theme are they using to customize wordpress into a gallery/download site.
Many thanks for your help!
I think you can do this with WordPress' thumbnail feature. You can assign a thumbnail to each post. It looks like that, and some tweaking to the theme in the way the posts are displayed and the download button is included.
Maybe there's a plugin to assign a file to download on each post, that's the only part I find complex in this theme.

Image gallery in wordpress

Is it possible to create an image gallery in wordpress that is managed by the admin via it's own page / panel. I am not talking about creating a new post and adding custom html for each image. I mean actually having a page in the admin that has the ability to upload and manage your images?
If it is possible how do you go about creating a custom page like this? I understand the PHP side of uploading and manipulating images, but I don't know how to integrate it with wordpress. I don't need a full blow tutorial on how to do this, but if you could just point me in the right direction that would be great.
One issue that comes to mind right away, is if this is possible would upgrading wordpress break the code? Since I assume you have to edit the admin files directly and you can't just do it from your own custom template?
From playing around I found NextGEN Gallery (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/) that has a tab in your admin panel. It looks like it would meet your needs.
You can manage all your media from the WordPress Media Library using tags if you install Tag Gallery
It requires the Media Tags plugin but it makes managing galleries so much easier and your using the built in media facilities of WordPress so it's not disjoint from the experience. There is a new version in the works that will offer much more impressive functionality as well.
Hope that helps.
There are a huge amount of image galleries for wordpress already made. Have a quick google for some (search "wordpress image gallery") and see if any of them are suitable (I'll be surprised if one of them isn't).
Failing that, you'll need to create yourself a Wordpress Plugin.
I've integrated ZenPhoto into my wordpress blog. It was pretty easy, would probably take you a few hours. The admin pages are completely separate from the wordpress admin pages, so you can easily give access to only one person.
You can create a custom post type called Gallery to manage create and manage image galleries. The post will have its own "Gallery" panel in the admin section and from there you can add new galleries just as you describe. There are lost of tutorials for creating gallery custom post types.
