This then will probably be an issue with the way NextGen Gallery stores the image.

I switched from flickr to self-hosted images for my 365daysproject because I exceeded the 200 limit of a free flickr-acoount. The reason I like to use the NextGen Gallery is that it makes it much easier to manage a large number of images. But the sharing thing seems to be a different ‘next generation’ that ngg probably didn’t expect ;-).

The JSSDK version script did it. But only once… untill you clear the cache (CTRL-F5).. then it works again.. once..

Huh.. nu in NL verder? Kunnen andere ge?nteresseerden het dan nog wel volgen?

Nou goed.. ?? Er komt geen thumbnail. Ik heb een featured image ingesteld op de pagina, maar die wordt ook niet oppgepikt. Het liefst heb ik natuurlijk een thumb van de betreffende afbeelding die gedeeld wordt.

Het javascript werkte dan toch het beste maar helaas dus eenmalig:
<div id="fb-root"></div><script>(function(d,s,id){var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "\/\/connect.facebook.net\/nl_NL\/all.js#xfbml=1"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document,'script','facebook-jssdk'));</script><fb:like send="false" width="450" show_faces="false" href="THEFULLLINKTOTHEIMAGEHERE"></fb:like>

Is er geen manier om te voorkomen dat deze button steeds verdwijnt?

PS
Super bedankt trouwens voor het meedenken tot dusver. Fancybox is echt super (en Nextgen ook), maar het is in deze tijd natuurlijk wel fijn om je foto’s te kunnen delen uit een galerij-plugin

With the iframe and href it works, but now the facebook doesn’t pick up thumbnails ??

Great! Thanks for your attention on this one! Almost works.. the image appears on the fb wall with the correct thumbnail!!

There are some issues left:

1/ when using the Fanxybox navigation, this makes the buttons dissapear. You click next and there’s no button antymore. Go back, and still no button. One has to reload the page and clear the cache to see the button again. This is inconvenient because this way you can’t make all the images in one gallery shareable to facebook, only the first image displayed in the fancybox.

2/ I installed “Add link to facebook” plugin and configured the API but I still need to put the script in the alttext. Using only the <fb: … ></fb:like> part doesn’t display the button otherwise.
I must say: “Add link to facebook” has a lot of options and I’m not sure I made the right setup.

PS:
You can take a look at the gallery here: https://www.barthoogendijk.info/levensbeschouwing365/
Note: only the first three images contain the code in the alttext.

The button appears in the fancybox but unfortunately the “like” doesn’t appear on Facebook. Too bad.. couldn’t find any other free plugin to do this except Mac Photo Gallery.

I think the author of another plugin Slickr Flickr solved the problem. A problem very similar is described on Russel Jamieson’s website https://www.wordprise.com here. Maybe this insight can serve to get the other ones (flickr-gallery/flickr-manager etc in combination with lightbox) working too..

I also run 2.9.1 (https://www.levensbeschouwingalskunst.nl) and can post, but the thumbnails only hyperlink to flickr and the lightbox doesn’t kick in.. really too bad..

It didn’t work for me.. I am running 2.9.1
My blog: https://www.levensbeschouwingalskunst.nl

I tried Flickr-gallery, but it kept telling me the API was invalid format ( I tried six times; six different API’s provided by Flickr)

So.. currently I run Flickr-manager, but the same problem with lightbox and flickr plugins. It also just keeps popping up in different fora all around. I couldn’t find an answer on any of them.

@duping: I can see you had succes (!!) .. which version of wp are you running and with which plugins besides shadowbox and flickr-gallery

any news for wp 2.9.2?
or go for wp 2.7?
