Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

FancyBox Gallery integrates the FancyBox jQuery plugin into the WordPress

gallery functionality. Simply use the gallery shortcode to display

thumbnails in your posts with the option to link directly to the images (not

the attachment template), and the plugin handles the rest. You get nice

popups for the larger sized images, scaled to fit in the browser window,

with a nice overlay effect.

Features:

  • Automatically scales large images to fit in window
  • Adds a nice drop shadow under the zoomed item
  • Groups related items and adds navigation through them (uses preloading)

FancyBox jQuery features, not yet implemented in the WordPress plugin:

  • Can display images, inline and iframed content
  • Customizable through settings and CSS

ToDo

  • Add a settings screen. Allow control of FancyBox display options.
  • Let user set their own CSS selector, instead of assuming the standard

WordPress shortcode.
