collective.prettyphoto 0.4.3

prettyPhoto integration for Plone.

Introduction

prettyPhoto is a jQuery based lightbox clone. Not only does it support images, it also add support for videos, flash, YouTube, iFrames and ajax.

It’s a full blown media lightbox. The setup is easy and quick, plus the script is compatible in every major browser.

The original implementation can be found here: http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/

This plugin has been tested and is known to work in the following browsers:

• Firefox 3.0+

• Google Chrome 10.0+

• Internet Explorer 6.0+

• Safari 3.1.1+

• Opera 9+

collective.prettyphoto integrates prettyPhoto 3.1.2 into Plone.

Installing

This package requires Plone 3.x or later (tested on 3.3.5 and 4.0.7).

Installing without buildout

Install this package in either your system path packages or in the lib/python directory of your Zope instance. You can do this using either easy_install or via the setup.py script.

Installing with buildout

If you are using buildout to manage your instance installing collective.prettyphoto is even simpler. You can install collective.prettyphoto by adding it to the eggs line for your instance:

[instance]
eggs = collective.prettyphoto

After updating the configuration you need to run the ‘’bin/buildout’’, which will take care of updating your system.

Usage

collective.prettyphoto adds a new view for Topics, Folders and Large Plone Folders: Thumbnail view (prettyPhoto).

To use prettyPhoto for inline elements just add ‘prettyPhoto’ from the styles menu (Kupu and TinyMCE) to the link.
