shadowbox plugin

bake3d / 2010-01-02 05:55:47   

I don't know if someone already did this or not but I got shadowbox working with my site and I wanted to share the fast plugin edit I did off of thickbox

http://lancebaker.me/shadowplug.zip

in index.php I just put
plug:front_lib_js />
plug:front_dyn_js />

close together don't know if it helps or not.

I just downloaded shadowbox and put the whole shadowbox folder into /ndxz-studio/site/js/

then just put the shadowbox CSS and resources folder into
/ndxz-studio/site/css/

I'm not a pro or anything this was done really fast I just love shadowbox and indexhibit

Great ! Thanks for sharing

geokaza / 2010-01-02 21:51:42   

Thanks for sharing too.
But updating jquery plugin to v.1.3.2 means that you're gonna loose only thickbox? Or the slideshow too?

bake3d / 2010-01-02 22:28:05   

Nah you don't lose anything its in Exhibition Format selection box thing of course you probably couldn't use all of them at once though I tried doing that and it broke the slideshow and thickbox.

Great! You've made my day, I've been searching for this for the past days... was thinking about rokbox
http://www.rocketwerx.com/products/rokbox/overview

But this seems perfect also!

But I would like to use this plugin with my vimeo....

Posting an image, i replace the link in the index.php to the one at vimeo but it's messy...

Would anyone have a suggestion, or another plugin that would work?

Thank you very much for the post anyway!

Thanks

Hey all,

I'm starting my new website with indexhibit. (By the way thanks to all for sharing all this!)
I would like to know if someone have the Shadowbox plugin since the last post?
I've seen website with this plug, such as this one.
The bake3d's link doesn't work anymore !! and i can't found an other one!
I've also tried to download from the official website...but can't manage to make it "usable" since my knowledge in java/css/php are a kind of weak!

Thanks for all

Km

spada / 2010-04-20 20:54:28   

anyone have a clue?

spada / 2010-04-25 22:20:06   

help please!!
Any one??
arsondpi??
Lemathieu??

arsondpi / 2010-04-25 23:22:16   

I can upload it if you really need this, although you could try searching the forum for the wobblebox which is an updated Thickbox implementation.

spada / 2010-04-25 23:40:42   

thanks Arsondpi for your answer!!
In fact I really need the Shadowbox instead of the wobble one...
Its included video formats, iframe etc...exactly what i want !!! even the black style of it!

Is it possible for you to upload it?
Thank you in advance, I really appreciate your help.

arsondpi / 2010-04-26 08:32:14   

I've send a message to bake3d - let's first see if he responds...

spada / 2010-04-26 09:13:53   

ok I'am waiting ... impatiently! :)

Thanks again

makecg / 2010-04-26 12:27:49   

Hello, yes I changed my name, trying to get some stuff organized right now so been busy with some stuff.

Ugghh, sorry guys btw.

Basically the same rules apply to above, I did lose the plugin
(hard drive crash) so this is basically a redone plugin for you guys.

Let me know if it works BTW,

( I will not ever remove this file )
Install - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1690488/files/shadowbox.zip

Place file / exhibit.shadowbox.php inside plugins.
Place folder / shadowbox ( /ndxz-studio/site/js )
Place files / shadowbox.css, resources ( /ndxz-studio/site/css )

makecg / 2010-04-26 12:51:10   

Also in Exhibition Format place it as ( No Thumbs, No Captions )



Because you can't have any < p> inbetween the code it will automatically add those if you choose other ones.

spada / 2010-04-26 12:52:35   

Hi makecg,
First of all, thank you for answering so quickly !
I download the plug and let you know guys if it's still working...
Thanks a lot for sharing !!

makecg / 2010-04-26 12:55:32   

Ignore the above post it was meant for a different thread.

spada / 2010-04-26 13:08:37   

ok ;)

spada / 2010-04-26 13:28:15   

Works perfectly makecg !!!!!!
Now am just trying to search how can i put iframe or video, because its says thats i can upload only jpg, png and gif in the indexhibit admin
by the way if you know it, it's welcome
i keep searching on other thread...

Thanks again makecg! you're the man!

makecg / 2010-04-26 13:43:09   

I think the best way you can do that for now is to Switch to shadowbox exhibit format.
and then self add your video...

< a href='video.flv' rel='shadowbox'> video ( or thumbnail ) < /a>

makecg / 2010-04-26 14:09:34   

Well I realised that didn't work for videos I just tried it.

Here is a different version using the current shadowbox version.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1690488/files/shadowbox_plugin.zip

See a test working example.
http://makecg.com/project/n/

There is a readme for installation instructions.

spada / 2010-04-26 14:13:08   

yes, i found this post

I've tried this code with:

"flv files" insered in a "video.swf":
< a href="video.swf" rel="shadowbox; height=xxx ;width=xxx"> video < /a>
= doesnt do anything.

For iframe:
< a href="http:www.website.com" rel="shadowbox; "> website< /a>
= the black shadow comes but nothing happen

For quicktime:
< a href="video.mov" rel="shadowbox; height=xxx ;width=xxx"> video quicktime < /a>
= same thing: the black shadow comes but nothing happen

Do i missed something?

I keep searching,

Thanks again for all, and sorry for posting so many times!

makecg / 2010-04-26 14:16:30   

Spada Download the new shadowbox plugin please, I was having troubles with videos with the older one too. I just made this one using a newer version of shadowbox.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1690488/files/shadowbox_plugin.zip

spada / 2010-04-26 14:19:35   

Ok I'm trying your new link
I let you know

spada / 2010-04-26 14:27:29   

Makecg....you've just made my day !!!
>> it works per-fec-tly !!!!!!

thanks for your help !!

verena / 2010-05-27 16:08:45   

Hi Makecg, I downloaded your shadowbox plugin and installed as you told in the readme file

"Place the shadowbox folder in these 2 sections.

/ndxz-studio/site/js
/ndxz-studio/site/css"

(it is really the whole folder?)

But nothing works, the picture opens on a new site. Does anyone have an idea, what went wrong?

Help much appreciated.

Anyone maybe had the same problem and solved it and might share it here???

arsondpi / 2010-05-28 11:19:06   

I don't understand what you mean.
This address uses shadowbox and it works fine on my computer.
Clear you browser cache and/or check the page in another browser.

verena / 2010-05-28 11:19:39   

Sorry, I found out that I have to add
plug:front_lib_js />
plug:front_dyn_js />
to my index file (that wasn't in the read me file).

Now it almost works, but I can't go further or back or stop the shadowbox with the little icons beneath. Anyone knwos why?

If anyone could have quick glance at it, I'd be very happy:

Thanks!

verena / 2010-05-28 14:34:33   

Sorry Arsondpi, somehow I didn't see your post when I wrote my last one. I cleared browser cache and checked the site in firefox and safari now. Still the same problem: the shadowbox opens, but then I can't go further with the buttons beneath. Furthermore the pictures are there twice now. I have no idea why. Does anyone have a helpful idea?
Thanks a lot.
V.

verena / 2010-05-30 12:10:10   

Anyone might have ha helpful hint for me?? Still struggling with the above problem...
Thanks.

verena / 2010-05-31 21:50:22   

Hi there, it's me again. I'm still busy with this shadowbox plugin, sorry if these are silly questions, but I still don't know what to change or correct, to get the shadowbox working. It opens, but I can't go further or back with the icons.
I'd be grateful for any help.
Thanks again.

rickykappa / 2010-05-31 22:14:22   

any help: I've no experience at all with this plugin, but taking a look to your page code there are a few weird things I'd suggest you to clean up anyway (btw, did you try valdating your page?):
- there is a double call to /js/shadowbox/shadowbox.js
- something strange happening in your div #logo_topleft: the a href tag is splitted in two parts
- finally I'm impressed that your expandingMenu is working even if the lines
    expandingMenu(0);
    expandingMenu(1);
    expandingMenu(2);
    expandingMenu(3);
are not there, where they are supposed to be...

verena / 2010-06-16 15:34:51   
Hi rickykappa,
thanks for your help, I'm now back to work on this and tried to follow your suggestions.
-I tried to find the double call to
/js/shadowbox/shadowbox.js
as you told me, but I can't find it. Where did you see this? (I'm quite impressed...) I thought it must be in my index.php file but there I don't see it.
-the div #logo_topleft seems to be ok in my css, where did you find the splitting?
-I'm glad my expanding menu is working, I really had a hard time getting it to work...

I redid the whole shadowbox plugin procedure, but it's still not working. I have no idea, where to look for the mistake. Any suggestions? I feel quite awkward asking this question again, but I'm still hoping for some advice...

Thanks again!
V.

I've managed to get shadowbox working quite nicely with my site, but the thumbnails it displays are a little small for my liking even if I select 200px in ndz-studio (they appear to stay the same small size).

Can anyone recommend what I should edit?

Thanks

Hi,

\n\n

Just finding my way and I like the look of shadowbox, but I\'m having some difficulties and any help would be greatly appreciated. I\'ve managed to install the plugin, but I can\'t seem to get the navigation buttons under the pictures. I might well have put things in the wrong folders:

\n\n

/ndxz-studio/site/plugin/exhibit.shadowbox.php
\n/ndxz-studio/site/js/shadowbox
\n/ndxz-studio/site/css/shadowbox.css
\n/ndxz-studio/site/css/close.png
\n/ndxz-studio/site/css/next.png
\n/ndxz-studio/site/css/pause.png
\n/ndxz-studio/site/css/play.png
\n/ndxz-studio/site/css/previous.png

i've installed the shadowbox plugin as outlined above and it seems to work fine when i use the image uploader. however, i want to have the text appear under the images in my gallery. also want to have a couple of videos embedded.

so, i'm trying to write the proper code to create my galleries, rather than use the image uploader. right now i can't get any thumbs to show up, only text links.

here's the page in question:

http://joelwanek.com/projects/mfa/

and here is the code i used to embed the images & video:

iframe
