Lightbox Plus Quick Demo

A major flaw was pointed out to me by Milan Petrovic in that the styles (and really the scripts too) in the admin panel were being queued up all across the admin panel. While the scripts were really causing any problems the styles were an issue for plugins that used jQuery UI. I’ve corrected this issue and made a few other modifications while I was at it including some streamlining of code and reduction of JavaScript sizes.

Get the full details and download link after the jump.

2.0.5

  • Rewrote the way the plugin is instantiated.
    • Provide better conrol over how actions and filters are added by Lightbox Plus.
    • Provides fix for jQuery UI styles loading on all admin panels.
    • Prevented jquery.colorbox.min.js from loading on admin panels other than Lightbox Plus.
  • Rewrote several functions to provide better compaibility with other plugins.
    • Admin scripts are now enqued correctly.
    • Admin and plugin styles are now enqueued correctly.
  • Fixed slideshow always auto-starting if slideshow enabled.
  • Changed several variables and related fields
    • Do Not Auto-Lightbox Images using auto_lightbox to no_auto_lightbox to accurately reflect it’s use.
    • Do Not Display Image Title using display_titles to no_display_titles to accurately reflect it’s use.
    • Use Class Method using class_method to use_class_method to accurately reflect it’s use.
    • If you use any of these settings you will need to re-check them and save your settings.
  • Reduced size of inline JavaScript and converted all to jQuery.
  • Reduced size of some scripts using old toggle method for help.

2.0.2

  • Add quick fix/hack for a big interface issue on the admin panel. See roadmap for long term solution.
    • jQuery UI themes were overloading other plugins that were using the jQuery UI
    • Lightbox Plus specific themes and scripts should only load on Lightbox Plus panel
    • The exception is colorbox.min.js will load in any admin panel due to the way it is initilized. Expect version 2.0.5 to address this.
