Auto Expand Photos

Hi Pierre,

Rotating Tweets doesn’t do this currently, but it’s a nice idea.

Would you want a lightbox type expansion (as per https://lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/) or to show the images inline?

Martin,

Most likely a way of showing the images inline.

But it’s working great for now.
I’ll see if I can work something out / wait for a Rotating Tweets update haha!

Thanks!

All the relevant information is accessible via using the information about Twitter entities here and using the $media variable in lines 1388-1403 of the rotatingtweets.php code – and then displaying it in one of the cases from lines 1454 onwards.

I’ve added some experimental code to show images to the development version.

Quite a lot of work still needed to make it look good.

It currently only works with shortcodes that include the variable show_media = '1' e.g.

[rotatingtweets screen_name='twitter' show_media='1']

I won’t add it to the widget until it looks a bit better! Any comments or ideas on how to do this are most welcome.
