Video Gallery Overview

Robo Gallery supports multiple ways to display videos inside galleries.

You can create video galleries using:

1. Dedicated YouTube gallery type
2. Video links attached to images inside regular galleries

This allows you to build galleries that include:

• images
• videos
• external links

All inside the same gallery.

YouTube Gallery Type

Robo Gallery includes a dedicated YouTube gallery type designed specifically for displaying videos.

This gallery automatically generates a video gallery from YouTube sources.

Supported modes:

• Channel
• Playlist
• Videos by ID

YouTube Content Modes#

Inside the gallery settings you can choose how videos are loaded.

Channel#

You only need to enter the Channel ID, and the gallery will automatically fetch the videos.

Playlist#

Simply provide the playlist ID and Robo Gallery will generate the gallery automatically.

Videos by ID#

This mode allows you to manually specify individual video IDs.

Example list:

-CuGOo7XRmQ

Each ID represents one YouTube video.

YouTube API Key#
