This is amazing, just wondering if you could add the animation feature to a card?

the date on the file inside of the zip file is 7/6/2022

the help button also does not work.

@kingsparta,

Your pics do not look like my extension. I double checked and the file in the store is the correct one.

It looks to me that you are using the Random Image extension created by Pablo not mine.

Feel free to contact me thru my website at https://webbuildertemplates.com/contact-us.html and provide me with your order number if you purchased my extension and need further help.

Thanks I Got It Now.

Ron,

I've just purchased this as it almost solves an issue I've had. One thing would (for me) make it perfect.

When displaying an image, you can add a link to it, one of which is a file. For me, that is a larger version of the image. But I only get the choice of displaying it in the same or a new browser window. It would be great if it could display it in a lightbox. Is that possible?

cheers

Another enhancement. Could you add an option to not go into dark mode when the page is changed? That way, the photos won't get inverted.

@Alan,

I'm back from vacation. Let me take a look at both questions you have and I'll get back to you here.

[crispy68]

@Alan,

Dark mode - I'm not sure of your layout, but for example, if the image (extension) is inside a layout grid, if you right click on the cell with the extension, choose Dark Color Scheme and make sure 'invert' is unchecked' it does prevent the images from inverting. If this is not your set up, can you provide me with a 1 page demo of your setup to play with?

Light box - I'm not sure this is possible with using extension manager. Even though lightbox is under the target option in WB, it is not used this way in ext builder and there is no option to add this that I'm aware of. It would probably take Pablo adding this as an option within Ext. Builder.

Each lightbox has its own unique code to make it work. Off the top of my head, there may be a workaround within Ext builder, but I would have to do some tinkering with the code and testing to see which lightboxes I could make work.

[alan_sh]

Ron,

Thanks for the quick response. Re dark mode: the demo page (html/css) is here https://webserve4-nas.synology.me/the-photo-dev3/

I would need to build a specific .wbs file for you to play with if that is what you want. Let me know and I'll do it.

The extension is inside a layout grid, but I cannot just have one 'cell' with no inversion - when I try that, the whole grid is affected - so all cells.

As for lightbox - it's a 'nice to have' in your own time. The dark mode is more important.

Ron, link to a sample.wbs file - https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/shlgx03x ... 0qtyi&dl=1

Give it 5 minutes from this post - I am on a VERY slow internet and it takes time...

Alan

[crispy68]

@Alan,

For now, you can enter the following CSS between the <head> tags:

Code: Select all

<style>
.darktheme #Extension2{filter:invert(100%);}
</style>

note: Since you already have <style> tags in your demo you only need to add the code between them with the rest.

Replace 'Extension2' above with the ID of the extension.

I will look at updating the extension shortly with this. As for the open in lightbox, until I get in there and mess around it may take an overhaul of the code to make it work. I'm not sure at this point.

Which lightboxes are you interested in it working for?

[alan_sh]

Ron,

That code works - thanks.

Fancybox is what I've used elsewhere.

regards

Alan

[alan_sh]

Ron,

Another enhancement suggestion, if you have time:

Caption:
Can we have a negative offset so that the caption appears below the image (when set to 'Bottom'). Or, have another option whioch is 'Below' (and I assume 'Above' as well) so the caption appears outside the image.

Because we can only have one colour for the caption, if you set the background alpha to 0, sometimes the caption cannot be seen. I want to set the background colour alpha to 0 because otherwise you lose a considerable amount of the picture. If the caption could appear below or above the image, I wouldn't need to set the alpha to 0.

Does that make sense?

Alan

[alan_sh]

Hi Ron,

Did you see my request above? And is it possible? I really want the caption below the image. Is there a better way to do it?

cheers

Alan

[alan_sh]

To anyone else who wants to use this extension, Ron has updated it so it can open images in a lightbox and works in Dark mode.

It is really good.

Alan
