Attachment page: click thumbnail to navigate images

  • So I want to include galleries in posts, and I want to be able to click on the next and previous photo in the gallery when I’m on the attachment page.

    (PHOTO)

    (previous photo) (next photo)

    I looked in the docs page, and I found this (<?php previous_image_link( $size, $text ); ?>) which I placed in attachment.php

    But nothing shows up. Am I doing something wrong?

  • Try:

    <?php previous_image_link(); ?> <?php next_image_link();?>

    Still nothing, unfortunately.

    Here’s attachment.php:

    <?php get_header() ?>

	<div id="container">
		<div id="content">

<?php the_post() ?>

			<h3 class="entry-title"><a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->post_parent) ?>" title="<?php printf( __( 'Return to %s', 'sandbox' ), wp_specialchars( get_the_title($post->post_parent), 1 ) ) ?>" rev="attachment"><?php echo get_the_title($post->post_parent) ?></a></h3>

			<div id="post-<?php the_ID() ?>" class="<?php sandbox_post_class() ?>">
				<h3 class="entry-title"><?php the_title() ?></h3>
				<div class="entry-content">
					<div class="entry-attachment"><a href="<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url($post->ID) ?>" title="<?php echo wp_specialchars( get_the_title($post->ID), 1 ) ?>" rel="attachment"><?php echo basename($post->guid) ?></a></div>
					<div class="entry-caption"><?php if ( !empty($post->post_excerpt) ) the_excerpt() ?></div>
<?php the_content() ?>

				</div>

<?php previous_image_link(); ?> <?php next_image_link();?>

			</div><!-- .post -->

		</div><!-- #content -->
	</div><!-- #container -->

<?php get_sidebar() ?>
<?php get_footer() ?>

    Any ideas?

    That template file doesn’t contain a Loop. Have a look at the attachment.php file in the Twentyten theme.

    It looks like nothing I change (even deleting something like the header code) in attachment.php affects the actual image page. Does anything in functions.php need to be modified?
