Is that what you had in mind? * If not, you may be thinking of a **lightbox** – a dimmed overlay that appears _on top of the page_ at a controlled size, without the browser going fullscreen. That’s a different (and very popular) UX pattern, used by galleries like Flickr and SmugMug. Here’s a live example of what it looks like: [lightGallery demo](https://www.lightgalleryjs.com/demos/thumbnails/#lg=nature&slide=9). * The lightbox behavior is not yet supported in the plugin, but I’m actively considering it based on user feedback. If that’s the direction you’re thinking of, I’d love to hear more about your ideal experience – for example, should it open with prev/ next navigation between all photos, or just show the single clicked image? Any real-world gallery sites you like as a reference would help tremendously. * Best regards, Jan * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] Error: Unable to Load Album](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-unable-to-load-album/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [3 days, 5 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-unable-to-load-album/#post-18903848) * Hi Mike, * It’s been a week by now and there was no any follow up from you.

I added this warning to the plugin guide: **⚠️ IMPORTANT LIMITATION: Google Photos limits descriptions to 100 characters. Longer descriptions are truncated. Use info-wrap=”true” to allow wrapping if you have longer descriptions, but be aware of this hard limit from Google.**Thank you for reporting!Best regardsJan * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] EXCELLENT, BUT one suggestion](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-but-one-suggestion/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [2 weeks, 4 days ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-but-one-suggestion/#post-18890782) * Hola [@luisbenitez777](https://wordpress.org/support/users/luisbenitez777/) , * I am truly grateful for feedback like yours.

I am not fully convinced by the idea of collapsing all samples, because the previews provide a clear visual hint and help “sell” the individual features, but I will definitely consider possible changes. * And… YES… gladly, you will find a small “thank you” in the upcoming version’s readme file 😉 * Have a wonderful weekend, Jan * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] Feature request – Image description tag?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-image-description-tag/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [3 weeks, 6 days ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-image-description-tag/#post-18881392) * Just for the record, line moved in 2.1.5 version 🙂 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] Low-Res / Restricted Display in Fullscreen mode?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/low-res-restricted-display-in-fullscreen-mode/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [3 weeks, 6 days ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/low-res-restricted-display-in-fullscreen-mode/page/2/#post-18881390) * Hi Naveen, * Thank you, that is very helpful. * Your message confirms that shortcode rendering on your actual site pages is fine and that the issue is isolated to the Guide page itself. That distinction is extremely important to me!!! * I have quickly reworked the Guide page so that the previews are no longer loaded eagerly all at once. Instead, they are now loaded progressively, which should make the page much lighter and keep it responsive much earlier. I have just released this as version 2.1.5. * Once you have had a chance to try it, I would really appreciate your feedback on how it behaves on your site: - Does the Guide page load faster now on your site? - Does scrolling through the examples feel responsive? - Is the Clear Cache area now accessible without the previous bottleneck? - Based on your feedback, I will decide whether any further restructuring is needed in future versions. * Compared to version 1.0, when only slider mode was supported, the number of features has grown significantly, so splitting the Guide into multiple pages or tabs may make sense not only from a performance perspective, but also from a UX perspective. * Best regards, Jan * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] Show download-button and link-button only on full screen](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-download-button-and-link-button-only-on-full-screen/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [3 weeks, 6 days ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-download-button-and-link-button-only-on-full-screen/page/2/#post-18881378) * Hey Peter, * I haven’t heard from you. Is the latest version working for you well in this aspect? On my tests it was very close if not identical to 2.0.3 version which I remember was the behavior you wished for. * Curious about your feedback, Jan * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] Low-Res / Restricted Display in Fullscreen mode?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/low-res-restricted-display-in-fullscreen-mode/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [4 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/low-res-restricted-display-in-fullscreen-mode/page/2/#post-18881228) * Hi Naveen, * Thank you for the follow-up. * The Guide page itself is indeed quite heavy. It currently renders around 60 live samples, so even though it works fine on a clean WordPress setup and on mine 3 environments, I believe it may become problematic on some real sites, depending on the hosting, installed plugins, or the general admin-side load. I will try to find a smarter way to render that page so it does not have to do so much work at once. * In the meantime, the most useful test would be this: Could you create a small otherwise empty test page on your own site and place just one or two [jzsa-album] shortcodes there? Then please check whether those shortcodes themselves show any noticeable performance problems on the front end. That will help us separate“ the Guide page is too heavy” from “shortcode rendering on this site is slow in general.” So far, this would be the first complaint about the plugin’s performance, but I do not want to underestimate it in any way. * If you want to build your sample in a way that is closer to your site’s final goal, you can also start a TasteWP or similar site within a few minutes, as I did last time. There, the Guide page works as fast as on my own WordPress instances, so it could be a quick way for you to go through the samples and documentation there. * This is a hobby project, so I likely will not have the next release ready before the weekend. At the moment, I expect the next version to become available sometime during the weekend. * Best regards, Jan * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Shared Albums for Google Photos (by JanZeman)] Feature request – Image description tag?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-image-description-tag/) * Plugin Author [Jan Zeman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janzeman/) * (@janzeman) * [4 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-image-description-tag/#post-18881179) * Great. I will consider it for the upcoming release. Thank you for the feedback!
