Overlay of images

Hi eflaten,
Could you please post a link to your site so I can take a look?
Thanks!

Thanks for showing interest in this issue ??

Its on resoptima.com

There are no gallery implemented now, but the idea is to link a single image or maybe textlink to a gallery that can display several screenshots as a lightbox overlay.

The screenshots in the gallery might be according to the client up to 12 to 15. So thumbs of all is not a good solution.

I see what you mean. What about this plugin? It looks like it could do just what you’re looking for.
LMK if it works!

Looks promising if putting all images exept the first one in DIV which are display:none;
Will check it out. The same solution could play for other lightboxes aswell. Thanks for this !

The idea in their forum:

Hello there,

Where you able to implement this? Do you need further assistance? If not, and if you are all set, please mark this thread as “Resolved.” It really helps a lot to sort out the threads that need assistance.

Thanks!

Yes, Marventus. The lightbox-2 is usable for making many slides in one link. Hide the links you dont want to show in a division that is set as display:none; in CSS is fine.

Glad to hear it worked.
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Let me know if there’s anything I can do for you.

Best of luck!

I am using Lightbox and my way of solving this was to mod the plugin so it automatically inserted a div element after the first image allowing me to hide the rest of the gallery images.

In lightbox-gallery.php on line 453 I inserted a counter:
$counter = 0;

Then inside the foreach, around line 481 I added:
if($first_counter == 2) {$output .= '<div style="display:none;">'."\n";}

Then the same thing further down to close the div element once the foreach has ended. You can also combine this with for example a custom post meta or tag the post to enable / disable this function for individual posts.
