At this point I would advise using the lightbox script of your choice (There are many flavors out there) in conjunction with either hak_article_image or wet_for_each_image. Strictly depending on how you want to get your images out of the db. The lightbox script in the plugin is somewhat outdated now. It’s nice, but it’s nicer to have the freedom to update your script individually to whatever the hot new flavor is depending on your usage.

Are you using this on an article image basis or cat basis? Article basis I would use hak_article_image. Cat basis i would use wet_for_each_image. For an example of the first suggestion look here and it’s at the very bottom of the article. (crappy pics quality, but not mine :)

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

soulship,

Glad you like the new header. I found the graphic on istockphoto.com, then spent some time hacking it apart in illustrator and photoshop to get it to repeat as a background. Looking forward to finishing off the redesign. :)

are there any code examples of how to use either plugin with Lightbox or its clones? As I’m unfamiliar with Lightbox and its syntax, it would be helpful to see how they work together.

EDIT: Nevermind the code request. I found what I was looking for on the wet_for_each_image information page, http://awasteofwords.com/samples/wet_for_each_image-sample-code.

Yep that’s a good one and there is also one for hak_article_image in this thread.

soulship:

Thanks for your response, but even if I use it in conjunction with one of these plugins won’t I run into the same problem that I can not get the lightbox to trigger?

Got it to work with Slimbox …

Thanks again for the assistance …

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

I can’t manage to automatically import the files and images. All it says is “Import failed”. When I manually upload everything (to its appropriate category) everything works except for that I can’t get the close-label to show.

I’m on txp 4.0.4 with the latest version of bas_lightbox. I even tried to install this modification without luck: http://flyspray.samisdat.org/task/6?histring=

Any ideas?

Thanks and Merry Christmas :)

tag_error <txp:bas_lightbox cat=“Year_5_football_04” /> -> Textpattern Notice: unknown_image on line 264

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

Hey alext,
I haven’t had the problem with bas_lightbox that you mention, but I thought I’d throw out that I recently switched away from this plugin to a lightbox redux called smd_slimbox. From a user’s perspective, there’s no difference in functionality, but the code has been rewritten and is much smaller than the original lightbox. Plus, this plugin is in current development by Stef Dawson, who’s doing a wonderful job. My two bits.

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

This doesn’t seem to work. My Txp doesn’t have an “extensions” tab. I tried installing via the regular method and the plugin installs, but does not work. Any help?
