Restoring image-to-image navigation in JoomGallery 4

This gap exists because JoomGallery 3 included image-to-image navigation, while the JoomGallery 4 rewrite did not, according to the listing. Joomla core does not provide this kind of front-end browsing for JoomGallery categories: its media tools and fields can manage or display media, but they do not add navigation to another extension's image view. Site owners would normally accept JoomGallery's existing interface, build a custom integration or template override, or install an extension. The developer says this one goes beyond a template change by reading JoomGallery's tables and filtering images according to ordering, publication, approval and access settings; those are claims from the listing, not independently tested results.

It is aimed at sites using JoomGallery 4 as a browsable photo archive, portfolio or catalogue where visitors are expected to inspect several images in sequence. A site with a small number of images, no JoomGallery installation, or a workflow based on Joomla's core media features has no obvious reason to install it. The listing describes it as a free download and identifies it as a system plugin in the galleries section.

Before installing, check the developer's stated compatibility with Joomla 4, 5 and 6 and confirm that the navigation is appropriate for the site's template and JoomGallery configuration. JewelOsman has 55 other directory extensions listed, while this entry has no reviews. The listing does not establish how conflicts with other navigation scripts are handled, how much configuration is required, or what support and documentation cover in practice. Test it on a copy of the site, particularly if custom CSS or access rules are important.
