WP-Slimbox2 Plugin

Author: Greg Yingling (malcalevak)

A WordPress implementation of the stellar Slimbox2 script by Christophe Beyls (an enhanced clone of the Lightbox script) which utilizes the jQuery library to create an impressive image overlay with slide-out effects.

Almost, if not all, options are configurable from the administration panel. For more on the settings and what they do check out the Slimbox2 page.

Recent Changes in v1.0.2, my apologies for all the recent glitches:
1. Fixed IE Javascript issue.
2. Fixed potential XSS vulnerability and rare inability to update.
3. Addition of Turkish/Türkçe Translation.
4. Update of French/Français Translation.

Recent Changes in v1.0.1:
1. To accomodate some installs the global options variable was removed.
2. To repair a small issue regarding selectors, .closest was used instead of .parents, bumping the jQuery requirement to 1.3, in turn bumping the WP requirement to 2.8. (If you insist on using an older version of WP, you can either manually upgrade jQuery, or switch back to using .parents, and specifically choose the selector value you want to use).

Recent Changes in v1.0:
1. Addition of options to select caption source, render the caption as a hyperlink to the image, control autoload grouping element, and disable the effect on mobile phones.
2. Initialization is now encapsulated within a function (usable in Infinite Scroll plugin, etc)
3. All Javascript is now static, no more dynamic files.
4. All Javascript and CSS compressed using YUI Compressor.
