Adding custom attribute to [gallery] shortcode

  • Hi,
    I’m modifying one WP theme and I’d really like to add a simple attribute to gallery shortcode whether to crop image thumbnail or not. And then in the process of creating a thumbnail I would like to just specify

    if crop == 'yes' { do this }
else { do that }

    Is that possible? And if so than how? Thanks for any answer!

    Edit:
    Theme has it’s own registered gallery shortcode with some modifications I think, but I simply can’t make this work…

    Ok, got it. Just added ‘crop’ into

    extract( shortcode_atts( array(
		'order'      => 'ASC',
		'orderby'    => 'menu_order ID',
		'id'         => $post->ID,
		'itemtag'    => 'dl',
		'icontag'    => 'dt',
		'captiontag' => 'dd',
		'columns'    => 5,
		'size'       => 'gallery',
		'exclude'    => '',
		'include'    => '',
		'ids'	     => '',
		'crop'	     => ''
	), $attr ) );

    then
    $crop = tag_escape($crop);
    and at the end

    if ( $crop == "yes" )
     $img_src = crop function
else
     $img_src = normal resize

    But now I have to manually add ‘crop=”yes”‘ to the shortcode in the post editor. Is there a way to implement simple dropdown select with only two options ‘Crop Yes/No’ into Gallery editor?
