That was exactly the hint that was missing! Just to add that the double white space must be addded BEFORE “txp:rss_thumbpop category…”.

>You could also use the new feature that was recently added to automatically show article galleries. In this case you would add the call to the plugin to your article form and it would only display the thumbnails if you had a category called “article-”+articleID

I didn’t understand that quite right. Nevermind, it’s working right now with the hint above, but if you find the time, maybe you can point me to some more in-depth documentation. I’ve startet learning Textpattern today, so everything is still quite new to me…

Thank you very much for your help!

A new version (0.4) is available now with some major updates based on suggestions by jbrew, theturninggate, ddsoul, vituvius and others.

• The dependency on dca_pop has been removed although the popups still function the same.
• Popups can now contain an image and its caption using an external script called thumbpop.php (included in the download).
• Padding can be specified on the width and height of the popup window.
• Images can now be ordered by name, caption, date asc or date desc.

The thumbpop.php script should be placed in your textpattern installation directory. Edit the inline stylesheet to alter the display. By default, the alt text is used as the page title and the caption is shown below the image. Check for an example on my site that uses the new popup style and window padding options.

Wilshire…. amazing. This thing is sweet!!! I tested it out last night and it works great.

One question: Is there a way to not have the caption display on the popup but still below the thumb?

Let me know.

Oh, man. That is so sweet! You really thought this on thru!

Thanks so much!

The plugin isn’t really meant for that. Don’t know if this is exactly what you’re looking for but take this code and place it in your taghandlers.php. You could also just pasted it at the end of any plugin file. Just call <code><txp:article_image_caption /></code> from an article form. It will work the same as the article image tag does. This would be classified as a “brut force” and is by no means ideal, but it should work.
<code> function article_image_caption($atts) { global $thisarticle,$pfr,$img_dir; if (is_array($atts)) extract($atts); $theimage = ($thisarticle[‘article_image’]) ? $thisarticle[‘article_image’] : ‘’;

if ($theimage) {

if (is_numeric($theimage)) { $rs = safe_row(”*”,‘txp_image’,“id=’$theimage’”); if ($rs) { extract($rs); return $caption; } } else { return ‘’; } } }
