Lightbox JS Plugin

  • Hi all.. just made a new plugin, i have disabled comments on pages at my blog so here goes the content:

    Description:
    Plugin that turns posted images into neat Javascript-powered overlay popups instead of just linking to the fullsize image. This plugin is based on the cool javascript done by Lokesh Dhakar and transformed by to a plugin for WordPress by me, inspired by Frank from 2d-sign. Enjoy!

    What is it good for?
    It scans your posts for linked images and makes a nice overlay popup out of them. This is much better then linking to a new window oder even open a fullblown javascript popup. This is a neat little thing and shows a small preloader animation before showing the full image. Before i continue to talk about what it is, i better put on some example.

    Example Linked Image
    (( check out at my blog ))

    How to Install?
    1. Just download the zip-file and unpack it into your wordpress plugins-folder.
    2. There is only one thing you need to take care of: Open the “lightbox.js?? and change the absolute path to the loading image and close image. If you don’t do this, then you will get an javascript error and your computer explodes into a million pieces, but then again.. nothin but nothin will happen. So better watch out for this path if you use permalinks. Defaults to “/blog/?? ..
    3. Activate it and you’re done. Browse to a post of yours with an linked image to see if it’s working.

  • i love the lightbox effect, thanks for your hard work zeo! what are your thoughts on being able to open a page in a lightbox, not just an image? i have seen examples of this but not for wp and i’d really like to do so

    hello,

    could anyone help me fix my lightbox plus plugin too? I downloaded it 2 months ago and it worked out of the box woderfull! I was away for a month of vacation and when I returned it did not work anymore (although I had installed some plugins in between but can’t remember which ones).

    now it just stopped working, the javascript seems to be loaded, the image tags look like this: < a rel="lightbox" href="https://pacura.ru/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2006/05/P1000405_1.JPG">
    <img alt="Felicia" title="Felicia" src="https://pacura.ru/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2006/05/.thumbs/thumb_P1000405_1.JPG" align="bottom" border="0" height="97" hspace="2" vspace="2" width="129">
    </ a>

    and finally here is a site to test: https://pacura.ru/2006/05/22/ela-felicia/

    btw. I did separate the a-tag to get it displayed as text here, the real code is ok.

    I really like this effect and I would like to use it on other static pages outside of wordpress. I added the js, css, and image files to my server and added the proper stuff in my headings but when the link is clicked on (i added the rel tag) it just links to the image. No swanky effects ??

    Any ideas?

    P.S. great script other wise and wonderfully commented code!

    hello,

    I solved my problem, I had another look at the plugin folder and found out another plugin ahd put a .htaccess file inside the plugins folder denying almost all access so a lot of plugins were not working anymore.

    Hi,
    I installed this nice WP Lightbox JS plugin and I understand how to link one image {and create a thumbnail) with the following code:
    <img height=”77″ alt=”title” src=”photo/Perla370.jpg” width=”71″ />

    But how can I now insert sets of several pictures, like I saw on the original Lightbox JS website. Is this feature not supported by the WP version?

    Love this plugin and never had a problem with.It’s a must have for my blog.My visitors love it ??

    But how can I now insert sets of several pictures, like I saw on the original Lightbox JS website. Is this feature not supported by the WP version?

    Could anyone tell me how to show sets of several pictures with WP Lightbox JS, or is this feature not supported by the WP version?

    flush, try this for sets:
    https://www.m3nt0r.de/blog/lightbox-wordpress-plugin/

    Thanks, but that doesn’t work at all now…
    I think the guy showed just part of the code required to make it work. Where’s the code that creates the thumbnail for instance?
    What’s the advantage of this one over lightbox JS 2.0 anyway?

    oh, you do have to create your own thumbnails for the one i mentioned. but it does do sets

    When I put [] to create a set of pictures, the plugin doesn’t work anymore.
    rel=”lightbox” works
    rel=”lightbox[group]” doesn’t
    Any suggestions on why this could be?
    Thanks

    flush: those should be curly brackets {group}, not square ones [group]

    It doesn’t work even with curly brackets. Just to check: is there anybody out there using WP-Lightbox-JS who CAN make image sets? I’m beginning to wonder if this feature is available in the WP version of this plugin.

    Hey, I installed this on my site but I was wondering if it is possible to get the script to target another window. I am using an iframe and the picture links are inside the iframe but I would like them to load in the main window.

    The website is here: https://www.rm-dev.org/niq/edenfall/ if you click Media>Pics you will see what I am talking about.
