Installing the Square Orb Gallery plugin is straightforward, whether you install it via the WordPress dashboard or download it from the official WordPress repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the step-by-step guide to getting the Square Orb Gallery plugin up and running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Method 1: Installing via the WordPress Dashboard (Easiest)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Use this method to install the plugin from the official WordPress.org plugin directory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Log in<\/strong> to your WordPress admin dashboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Navigate to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New<\/strong> in the left-hand sidebar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. In the Search plugins…<\/strong> box (top right), search for the Square Orb<\/strong> plugin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Once the plugin appears in the list, click the Install Now<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. After the installation completes, the button will change to Activate<\/strong>. Click it to enable the plugin.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Method 2: Manual Upload<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    If you download the .zip<\/code> file from the WordPress repository<\/a>, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Keep the file as a .zip:<\/strong> Do not unzip the file before uploading.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Log in<\/strong> to your WordPress admin dashboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Navigate to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. At the top of the screen, click the Upload Plugin<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Click Choose File<\/strong>, select the aura-gallery.zip<\/code> file from your computer, and click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Once uploaded, click Activate Plugin<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Final Steps: Configuration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Most plugins require a bit of setup after activation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Set your defaults in the Control Panel:<\/strong> On the WordPress admin dashboard, click Square Orb to open it. Here, you can set global defaults, connect to cloud accounts, and view gallery analytics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Add your first gallery:<\/strong> Select the Square Orb Canvas block from the Blocks menu.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Troubleshooting Note:<\/strong> If you encounter a “White Screen of Death” or an error after activation, it is usually a conflict with another plugin (extremely rare). You can deactivate the plugin via FTP by renaming the plugin’s folder (e.g., changing it from plugin-name<\/code> to plugin-name-disabled<\/code>), which will force WordPress to turn it off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":135,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_is_vendor_doc":"0","footnotes":""},"doc_tag":[],"class_list":["post-136","docs","type-docs","status-publish","hentry"],"comment_count":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs\/136","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/docs"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=136"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs\/136\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":319,"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs\/136\/revisions\/319"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs\/135"}],"next":[{"title":"Control Panel Overview","link":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/docs\/square-orb\/getting-started\/overview\/","href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs\/151"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=136"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"doc_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/awesomediscoveryzone.com\/squareorb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/doc_tag?post=136"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
