    I suppose you dont have close integration with NextGen gallery but is that something that you can do? I would like to have it so I can use your slideshow with already prepared galleries, that way I wouldn’t have to add each image separately as featured images.

    May be pushing it eh?

    No, my plugin uses the media library built into WordPress and NextGen has it’s own system. But there are lots of add-on plugins for NextGen, including some jQuery Sliders similar to what Meteor Slides uses.

    No problem at all, thanks for the support, the coffee is much appreciated!

    Hey Josh, I’ve been searching, but haven’t found a solution yet. Is it possible to have the slide link to a specific NextGen gallery image that opens in a lightbox? Too complicated? I can’t find a specific link that is applied to the thumbnail in the Nextgen gallery that opens the lightbox. Here’s my site on a testing server. Thanks in advance!

    Nevermind, I figured it out finally!

    I had to edit the “meteor-slideshow.php” file to have it open a link in a lightbox. My solution was:
    <a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "slide_url_value", $single = true ); ?>" class="shutterset_website-filmstrip-images" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail( 'featured-slide' ); ?></a>

    You could also probably add that class to the link with jQuery to avoid editing the slideshow template.
