Cleaner Gallery

This plugin was written to take care of the invalid HTML that WordPress produces when using the [gallery] shortcode.

It does a bit more than that though. It will integrate with many Lightbox-type scripts and allow you to do much cooler things with your galleries. Plus, it has a couple of extra options that you can play around with.

Features

• Integrates with Schema.org microdata.
• Uses the aria-describedby attribute to make images + captions more accessible to users with disabilities.

• Several options on how you want your gallery images.
