Problems with image groups and jQuery Colorbox

    Hallo,

    first let me thank you for the great SuperSlider-Image Plugin. I use it in every of my wordpress blogs.

    I am just setting up a new website and I have a problem if I use different groups of pictures in one page using:

    [image image_id=”a, b, c”]

    [image image_id=”d, e, f”]

    When I click on a thumb to open it in the jQuery lightbox, I can browse through ALL pictures in that page, not only the ones in a group.

    I hope you understand the problem because my english skills doesn’t allow to explain better.

    A sample can be seen here: https://new.flyvision.eu/bildergalerie.html

    I have already tried to change the jQuery Colorbox settings but this has been unsuccessful.

    Is that a problem of your plugin or of the jQuery Colorbox?

    Thanks for help and regards
    Danyel

    Hello DanyelAndre

    Yes I see the issue.
    The issue is related to the colorbox jquery plugin.
    It is adding colorbox-44 to each image in the post.
    you could try this:
    add this:
    link_class="colorbox-1"
    to the ss-image shortcode and change the number for each image grouping.
    Then if the colorbox has an option to deactivate automatic linking, or the option to set manually it should work for you.

    Hello Daiv,

    thank you for your help. I have tried out but that didn’t work. I have also tested different Colorbox settings and I changed to the Lightbox Plus plugin. All with the same result.

    Any other ideas? Or have I to ask the Colorbox/Lightbox support?

    Thank you again and best regards

    well, the thing is, the light box will show all images in a group.
    Are you sure that you tested my suggestion completely? did you confirm that each group of images had a different link class?
    presently it is:
    <a class="image_link cboxModal"
    <a class="image_link colorbox-3"
    <a class="image_link colorbox-4"
    <a class="image_link colorbox-5"
    So check with the lightbox to ensure that it groups based on link class.
    Really, this should work.

    Yes, I did. Depending on the Lightbox-Settings there is no change or the lightbox stops working completely.

    Is there any possibility to add something to the ss-shortcode what changes the rel-option? Maybe that will help.

    e. g.

    rel=”lightbox1″
    rel=”lightbox2″

    …and so on.

    The rel only works for lightboxes which use that. The lightbox you had was reading the link class. And no there is no option set up to customize the rel in ss-Image plugin.

    I have solved the problem.

    But I am sorry to say that I had to replace Super Slideshow Image with the standard WP Gallery function:

    [gallery columns="6" ids="342,320,89" link="file"]

    jQuery Colorbox has been replaced with LightBox Plus. Now all works perfekt.

    Anyway…I am still using your plugin on other pages. So thank you for your support.
