WFM 1.4.5 – Lightbox 2 Support

Trent Gardner — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 05:07:44 +0000

WordPress Flickr Manager’s latest release now supports Lightbox 2. I’ve also added new “Optional Settings” such as “Enable lightbox support by default” and “Default lightbox picture”, which lets you specify a default size of the image being displayed by Lightbox.

The ‘Browse Photos’ panel has had a bit of a face lift, it now allows for more solid control over inserted Lightbox elements such as specifying the Flickr image size to be displayed in Lightbox from picture to picture.

If you’ve got a suggestion that you’d like to see in a future version of Flickr Manager, let me know.

It’s a bit of a rushed release because I’m pretty busy at the moment, so I didn’t have time to test it as much as I would have liked. I introduced a couple new features to Flickr Manager in this release, the main one being optional Lightbox support. You’ll notice now on the “Browse Photos” tab an added “Insert with lightbox support” check box. When this is selected, the inserted image will display the Medium Flickr sized copy of the photo in the Lightbox window. This means if you insert a square, thumbnail or small image it will display a larger version when viewing the Lightbox image. It also allows you to specify which images load with Lightbox and which don’t. For Example:

CLICK ME! I do stuff.

I’m boring and just take you to Flickr

Also another feature I added was if you don’t have cURL installed on your web host it will now use fopen instead.
NOTE: File uploads to Flickr won’t work unless you have cURL installed. So if everything is working except uploads, you must install cURL!

Like I said earlier, I didn’t have as much time as I would have liked to test this so I’m releasing it as a beta. If you find any errors, please let me know. Thanks.
