HACK: HOW TO MAKE HIGHSLIDE SLIDESHOWS WORK WITH GALLERY PLUS:

1. Edit the file gallery-plus.php inside the plug-in directory.
2. Look for the following code:

ID . ‘]”‘ : ‘ class=”‘ . $overlay . ‘”‘)) . ($atagtitle ? ” title=\”$img_title\”" : ”) . “>

inside the tag, just before href, you should add the following code: onclick=\”return hs.expand(this, config1)\”

OBS: the parameter config1 is variable. It is related to the configuration type you wish to use with highslide.

Then your code should look like this:

ID . ‘]”‘ : ‘ class=”‘ . $overlay . ‘”‘)) . ($atagtitle ? ” title=\”$img_title\”" : ”) . “>

Now, be aware that if you use another script rather than highslide, you will need to change this line.

Thanks for this awesome plugin. Had a bit of problem in the beginning (user error) But this was exactly what I was looking for.

Is there any way to use custom link urls with this? (IE to be able to use a different image for the thumbnails and the image that is linked to/lightboxed when you click them)

If I select none, I can’t use the lightbox, and if I select image I can’t change the link URL.

Any suggestions?

Well I made some significant modifications to this plugin for my own purposes. I think I may package it up and offer my version somewhere online as it seems to satisfy some of the options that people have wanted for some time.

I provide additional options to choose what kind of link the image links to – with respect to: instead of having just none, image, or post; I also added which type of image I was linking to, as there are different sizes in the Media Gallery that I would like to link to instead of forcing it to Full size all the time, which can be VERY slow for some people who upload large-size images to the media library in wordpress.

I ended up modifying your code so that it doesn’t customize the columns, instead leaving the columns for me to decide based on my gallery shortcode.

I use my gallery shortcodes in different areas of my site with different column setups.

Your plugin overrides ALL predefined column settings that I individually make for different galleries no matter what.

This is bad.

I second charmed. I post over 50 images in my updates, and those images pile up. Pagination would be perfect for this plugin and I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks.

Is there a way to have a 2-line caption under the thumbnails in a gallery? Using 1.4.1, I can only get one of these values to display as a caption: Title or Caption. But not of the options in Settings > Gallery Plus cause two of them.

I want to have one line be the name of the painting and the 2nd line to be the dimensions and year. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi, is pagination an option with gallery plus? We love the plugin but now that we have 30+ images loaded into some galleries, the pages are loading slowly. pagination would be great but I cannot find any info on this option. Thanks!
