Put lightbox feature everywhere?
Using Jamroom
lornawebber:
I'm searching (in my ignorance I'm afraid) for information on how images are displayed in galleries. I've searched the JR documentation for information on Lightbox and come up empty, so forgive me if I am off topic - I really don't know if our site uses the lightbox and Ruth isn't available to ask, but this thread does seem relevant to my problem.
As an Admin on the pmp-art site, I'm getting lots of questions/complaints about how to control the size of image as displayed in galleries. Resizing the image (e.g. in the Image Editor) does not make it smaller when displayed. This is a feature that everyone wants.
On the pmp-art site, the display seems to use only the image pixel width, to work out how big to make the displayed size, it doesn't use the height, so you do often have to scroll a 'portrait format' photo. I attach an extreme example.. the screen shot is the entire visible screen.
Can you give me a pointer as to where to look? Sorry if this is a dim question. I'm new.
I've read the Forum posts here:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/design-and-skin-customization/8494/nova-skin-gallery-lightbox-not-resizing-to-browser-window
and here:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/25127/photo-lightbox-viewer-possible-to-link-to-image/search_string=lightbox
Both discussions are now closed, but don't say what the outcome was. Did you update the lightbox? Is there a way to click from an image to comment (that would be nice)?
This is not related to lightbox - this is the jrGallery/templates/item_detail.tpl file. Right now the system tries its best to "fit it" to the current page size, and this is done so the page will be responsive on a mobile device. If you change so it sets it to a specific height and/or width, then it's not likely to work properly across all devices.
Let me know if that helps.
