Ian Lewis' Blog

Not sure how long ago it was but a guy at ivertech who calls himself Fat Jack wrote an article about b2evolution plugins that help in advanced blogging. In that article he mentions 2 of the plugins I've written, the Gallery2 Plugin and the Lightbox plugin. Though the lightbox plugin will need to be decommissioned and/or rewritten because it depends on prototype and the new versions of b2evolution are including jquery, it's cool that someone is mentioning them in an article on the internets. Even if his name is Fat Jack (well I wanted it to be a person but it's the name of a hosting service apparently).

The next version of the lightbox plugin for b2evolution has been released ! !

The Lightbox plugin allows you to create posts with links to pictures and display them using Lightbox or Lightbox2. You can view an example of the lightbox plugin above. This release added support for Lightbox2 and some bugs regarding matching of urls in the [lightbox] render string. Matching of urls should be more forgiving especially with relative urls.

Lightbox2 is not enabled on this site but you can see examples of it's use on the Lightbox2 homepage.
