Metaslider Gallery 2.22.0 focuses on making the gallery editing experience clearer. Lightbox controls are now easier to find in their own panel, the URL setting language has been improved, and the admin interface gets a small branding refresh with the MetaSlider logo.

Feature highlights
The biggest usability change is the move of the lightbox option into a dedicated panel. Instead of looking under Advanced options for the “Open in lightbox?” setting, users now have a clearer place for lightbox-related controls.
The “Hash URLs” wording has also been revised to make the option easier to understand. The updated language around unique image URLs should help site owners recognize what the setting does without needing to decode technical terminology.
This release also brings the MetaSlider logo into the plugin interface, helping Metaslider Gallery feel more consistent with the wider MetaSlider product family.
Other changes
- Share icon styling fix — Share dropdown icons such as Facebook, Twitter/X, and Pinterest no longer inherit toolbar button styling incorrectly.
- Better Pro compatibility — The CSS fix helps preserve proper dropdown icon color customization in the Pro plugin.
