Slimbox Wordpress Plugin
Wordpress plugin used to overlay images on the current page into neat Javascript-powered overlay popups.
Because Slimbox was designed to be 100% compatible with Lightbox, you can just replace the Lightbox 2 Wordpress Plugin whit Slimbox Plugin and your Lightbox effects will work just as well as before.
Use the
title attribute if you want to show a caption. Click on the images below for an example.
Installation
- Upload slimbox-plugin folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
- Add a rel=”lightbox” attribute to any link tag to activate the lightbox, or rel=”lightbox[roadtrip]“ for image set.
- Optional: Use the
titleattribute if you want to show a caption. - If you want to add automatically the lightbox effect to your post’s images, open lighbox.php and remove the comment ‘//’ from lines 21 to 24.
Single example:
<a href=”img1.jpg” rel=”lightbox” title=”my caption”>thumbnail1</a>
Image set example:
<a href=”img1.jpg” rel=”lightbox[roadtrip]“>thumbnail1</a>
<a href=”img2.jpg” rel=”lightbox[roadtrip]“>thumbnail2</a>
<a href=”img3.jpg” rel=”lightbox[roadtrip]“>thumbnail3</a>
Tnx to my sister for the photos! Link me in your site!

Hi! I’ve been using the slimbox plugin for a while, and i really like it.
In case it may interess you, i’ve slightly modified it, to load the mootools libraries from the google content delivery network, instead from my website, to have faster downloads and more downloads in parallel.
I think that this might be an advantage.
Good work!

JohannesHi,
I found out how to make galleries show a lightbox. In line 22 of slimbox.php, change the number 2 to 11, which makes the filter be executed later.

exemple of page who works with “WP lightbox Plus” : http://www.vivalille.com/2009/08/24/images-du-jour-45/
thx for support, and sorry for my english :/
I’ll be try it thank you~~!
this page is very Important
thank you with wordpress plugins
AndyFor those wanting this great plugin to work with the built-in Wordpress gallery functionality, a small change is needed.
Replace the entire line containing preg_replace (20?) with the following:
return preg_replace(‘//i’, ‘‘, $content);
You may also need to change
add_filter(‘the_content’, ’slimbox_create’);
to
add_filter(‘the_content’, ’slimbox_create’, 99);
Hope that helps
- Andy
