Could a custom field be made to hold the cat please. For me this would mean a low tech user wouldn’t need to remember the tag syntax and could easliy create a gallery without any trouble.

i second this. hopefully this is something fun to do :)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

Wow! everything sounds wonderful, Bastian… but coming from you, I cant expect anything else than another five stars plug-in.

Please, have fun coding! We will have fun testing!

ps: when trying to get to Samisdat site thru http://www.samisdat.org/ it returns a 404 error. Are you a supporter of no-www?

With txp we all have fun :)

I expect that same testing is needed, because of large number of changes.
BTW: Anyone who is able to translate my german plugin help.
Thats not fun to me, wloud be nice to see someone who take care of this

Thanks maniqui. i never get this error, because i typed www. So perhaps i’m a supporter of no-www
Bit, i will fix that.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

Testers needed

I just finished to test version of bas_lightbox v0.4

I tested it local and on all servers i have access to. With Firefox and IE 6.0
Now it’s your turn.

Download, activate and run the advanced install script at extension -> bas Lightbox

Whats new:

  • Lightbox 2.0 support
  • An import function copies all files and images to your txp. Make sure that you are connected.
  • Plugins preferences are stored in db and editable at extension -> bas Lightbox
  • Custom-field support. Name a customfield Lightbox and this field will be replaced by an drop-down list of all img-cats.
  • You can use it in page or forms with <txp:bas_lightbox use_section='true'/> or <txp:bas_lightbox use_cat='true'/> the actual section or cat is used to define the images. e.g. in section is about all images within img-cat about will be displayed
  • I hope i get this _some-nothing-happens_-error. Place <txp:bas_lightbox_head/> into your head to load the scripts and css .

Perhaps the help is a help, even its not as long.

What is missing:

  • lightbox.css is still not valid
  • limit and offsett
  • caption for thumbnails

Let me know how it works and i will release the final.
Particularly: Does the import function work and is there any interference with other plugins.

Edit: BTW This one works with bas_lightbox v0.4

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

hi bastian, thanks for this new release.
95% working! ;)

bugs

  1. the wraptag and the wrapclass attributes definied in Lightbox preferences arent being applied. I have to put them manually in th tag
  2. I have an issue while browsing galleries by category: categories with just one image doesnt display the image. Check it here (clic on a gallery on the right column).
  3. what about the bas_lightbox category? I have deleted because it was being displayed in my image category list and I didnt want that. no problem with that?

I will continue testing and reporting ;)

thanks

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

thanx maniqui, you are fast.

95% working!

Fine, after reading your post, it seems like the import stuff belongs to the 95%.
That is a good news.

I will have a look at Nr 1 and Nr 2

3. what about the bas_lightbox category? I have deleted it … no problem with that?

No, the install script creates cat bas_lightbox for img and files and fills it with the imported imgs and files.

What it the best way of handling that?

  • Exclude bas_lightbox from drop-down list?
  • Using bas_lightbox as author instead of cat?
  • Nothing, no one cares where the imported images are stored.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

Wow Bastian, another great plugin! I feel so slow when I think about the discussion we had a couple of weeks back (or was it months?!?) in regard to giving you a hand with those image-related plugins. Still on the sideline mate with all the work floating around, sorry : (.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

Hi Bastian, tested it on localhost and the script did not load at all. ie on clicking the thumbnail I get a new page with the larger image

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

colak,

Did you include txp:bas_lightbox_head to your head and did the install script worked?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] bas_lightbox (Thumbnail galery with unobtrusive javascript)

Hi Bastian,

Only issues I’ve had is with the wrap tag and class tag not being applied, also on a page I’m using this on there is a QuickTime movie which seems to sit on top of the larger image – I guess I can take care of it with ‘z-index’. Otherwise import of the scripts worked fine and I see no problem with other plug-ins.
