Comparing to other gallery apps, the current default shop gallery has very little layout options:
Please incorporate more options like what’s available in Pro Gallery:
Why not just use Pro Gallery you ask? Because “Shop” has the most extensive and robust e-commerce features that we need and Pro Gallery is clearly not built for e-commerce.
Assuming adding layout options to Shop is easier than adding e-commerce features to Pro Gallery but we’ll take it either way.
Thanks Editor X team!
Hi @penn ,
While we are waiting for Wix’s updates and new releases, you can try the following after enabled Dev mode (no code needed):
Add a dataset to page and connect it to repeater/gallery. You can apply filter on the dataset. This allows you to do custom layouts with your own elements / pro gallery’s layout.
Does it solve your question?
Thanks for responding.
Yes we are currently using Pro Gallery and link to Dataset with filter. That’s our temporary solve and still not ideal. Because the current Dataset feature does NOT allow more them 100 item. So our SKU is more than 100 we had to stack two Pro Gallery on top of each other, which creates a weird gab between two stacked galleries.
Here’s the example page:
When you scroll down to the bottom half, you’ll notice the below weird gap. That’s because the first Pro Gallery reached the 100 item limit (the limit is from the Dataset link feature, no Pro gallery itself) and we had to stack another Pro Gallery at the bottom.
However, because “Shop” Gallery does NOT need to link to a Dataset, it can use “Product” inventory directly so it doesn’t have that 100 item limit issue. Plus you can also do pagination with “Shop” and we can’t find out how to do it with Pro Gallery.
@penn There is a feature request for more product layouts that you can vote on here.

I was testing a few things but if you’re using a gallery, you can try using the load more button . That should load more images.
