smd_slimbox

halftone · 2011-12-22 20:55:19

Thanks both. I just tried with no spaces (changed to underscores) and single quotes around the tag-in-tag, and it still doesn’t work.. Is it me, or TXP? :) (I mean : Yes, I changed the custom field in admin to slideshow_category as well as in the form).

FWIW, before posting I already checked that (txp:custom_ field name="slideshow category" /> returned the value on the page, xmas_cards, so it’s just the context as input to smd_slimbox that seems iffy

Any ideas on how can I get paging to work with smd_slimbox.
Right now if i limit the number of thumbnails to say “9” it will display 9 thumnails.

The next link below the thumbnails will open up a blank lightbox screen with no image in it.

I’ve tried a couple ways:

<txp:smd_slimbox category="business_signs_images" limit="9" imagecaption="?caption"   wraptag="li" cellclass="cell"  />

and even messed about like this:

<txp:article  wraptag="ul" break="li" class="thumbs"  category="business_signs" limit="9">
    <txp:smd_slimbox limit="9" ><a href="<txp:permlink />?cat=<txp:category />"><txp:article_image thumbnail="1" /></a></txp:smd_slimbox> 
</txp:article>

All i need is for the next thumnails in a category to appear on the page without launching a lightbox unless one of the new thumbs is clicked.

Also I get the same thing if I use nextlabel:

<txp:smd_slimbox imageid="48, 25, 4"
     category="dogs, ?custom1" subcats="all" limit="20"
     prevlabel="Back" nextlabel="next" sort="name desc, category" />

It just opens up a blank light box.

This is even if showpagelinks=“1” is manually set.

It must be because there is no where for the subsequent pages to populate? But I don’t understand what code i need to provide for that.

Ah! here’s the problem.

Here is how i can get slimbox paging to work. Only by omitting the required wrapping trigger div:

so in this example paging works but the lightbox doesn’t:

  <txp:smd_slimbox category="business_signs_images"   limit="5"
     prevlabel="Back" nextlabel="next" prevclass="prev_but"
nextclass="next_but"
  sort="name desc, category" showpagelinks="1"/>
<div class="clearthumbs">&nbsp;</div>

in this example the lightbox works but the paging doesn’t:

<div id="gallery"> <txp:smd_slimbox category="business_signs_images"   limit="5"
     prevlabel="Back" nextlabel="next" prevclass="prev_but"
nextclass="next_but" sort="name desc, category" showpagelinks="1"/>
<div class="clearthumbs">&nbsp;</div>

This is the head script trigger:

<!-- Ativando o jQuery lightBox plugin -->
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function() {
        $('#gallery a').lightBox();
    });
    </script>

here are examples of the problem. one with paging working and the other with the lightbox working, as stated above can’t get them both to work together.

paging without light box (no trigger div #gallery)

paging with trigger div #gallery lightbox works but prev next paging doesn’t:

i think this is the part of the plug in that is conflicting with jquery lightbox for paging: im really not sure though….

 //Add the paging features if required
		if (($limit > 0) && $showpagelinks) {
			$next = ($numPages > 1 && $thumbpage != $numPages);
			$prev = ($numPages > 1 && $thumbpage > 1);
// Replace any paging info in the query string
			$prevPage = smd_addQSVar($pretext['request_uri'], $gallID, $thumbpage-1);
			$nextPage = smd_addQSVar($pretext['request_uri'], $gallID, $thumbpage+1);
 $outStr .= ($navwraptag != "") ? '<' .$navwraptag. (($navclass != "") ? ' class="' .$navclass. '"' : '') . '>' : ''; $outStr .= ($prev) ? '<a' . (($prevclass != "") ? ' class="' .$prevclass. '"' : '') . ' href="' .$prevPage. '">' .$prevlabel. '</a>'.n : '';
			$outStr .= ($next) ? '<a' . (($nextclass != "") ? ' class="' .$nextclass. '"' : '') . ' href="' .$nextPage. '">' .$nextlabel. '</a>'.n : '';
$outStr .= ($navwraptag != "") ? '</' .$navwraptag. '>' : '';
$outStr .= n;
}
}
return $outStr;
}

I know this is probably not what you want to hear, but have you considered smd_gallery instead of slimbox? The pagination is better.

This could well be a bug in the slimbox plugin but I don’t have time today to dive into the code so the shortcut might be to try gallery instead (or see if you can use Txp’s built-in tags, though I’m not sure if they’re flexible enough for this situation).

no bother bloke. any reply is good. I’ll try smd_gallery, I should manage ok with that now that you mention it.
thanks for the reply.

steph the problem may not be in your plug in. I had the same results with smd_gallery so I tried a few different lightboxes and when I tried slimbox everything worked with smd_slimbox. I was using lightbox before. I guess seeing as how the plug in was named slimbox i should have started with that one in the first place!

Yes. If you have a list of image IDs in your article image field then this works:

<txp:smd_slimbox imageid="?article_image" />

Hi Stef,

this works fine but how to display only 1 thumbnail on the page instead of all the thumbnails that are linked to the current article?
I got 3 image IDs in the “Article image” field (comma separated) but only want to show 1 of those on the page. When I click this thumbnail on the page the full version shows up in the lightbox with the “next” and “prev” option that brings me to the other 2 images.

<txp:smd_slimbox imageid="?article_image" limit="1"/>

shows indeed 1 thumbnail on the page but also only 1 full sized image inside the lightbox.

<txp:smd_slimbox imageid="?article_image" limit="3"/>

shows 3 thumbnails on the page and 3 full sized images inside the lightbox

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jeroen

Try smd_gallery instead. It’s more powerful and has the thumblimit attribute (see my reply to that topic).
