[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Default gallery view = Cooliris (PicLens)?

  • NextGEN is a great gallery plugin for WordPress, and I am especially impressed with the built-in support for Cooliris or PicLens as it’s called on there.

    When I click on any of the photos, I get a thickbox view. I know how to switch it so that it shows no thickbox or other js plugin as well.

    What I’m interested in doing is clicking on a photo and having that photo show immediately in PicLens viewer. Is this possible?

    I guess the lack of replies means no one knows anything. Darn!

    I find out the way to use PicLens by default.
    You need to modify the file gallery.php (plugin/nextgen-gallery/view/gallery.php) and put this code <?php echo $gallery->piclens_link ?> in the href of the thumbnails link

    <!-- Thumbnails -->
	<?php foreach ($images as $image) : ?>

	<div id="ngg-image-<?php echo $image->pid ?>" class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box" <?php echo $gallery->imagewidth ?> >
		<div class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail" >
			<a href="<?php echo $gallery->piclens_link ?>" title="<?php echo $image->description ?>" <?php echo $image->thumbcode ?> >
				<img title="<?php echo $image->alttext ?>" alt="<?php echo $image->alttext ?>" src="<?php echo $image->thumbnailURL ?>" <?php echo $image->size ?> />
			</a>
		</div>
	</div>
	<?php if ( $gallery->columns > 0 && ++$i % $gallery->columns == 0 ) { ?>
	<br style="clear: both" />
	<?php } ?>
 	<?php endforeach; ?>

    Nice, but every time NextGen is updated this functionality will be lost. Is there a way to do this using the functions.php file? Otherwise, it’ll get lost in all the updating.
