What this hack does is add a nice CSS and Javascript lightbox effect
to your forums attachments. Attachments must be set to shown as thumb-
nails and not inline. Attachments can not be posted using the [attach]
id[/attach] bbCode at this time.

Working Demo(s): (Send me your URL once you get it working) http://www.fightrice.com/forums/showthread.php?t=124

Now Lets Get Started

1. Open your adminCP - Styles and Templates - Template Manager - Postbit
Templates - postbit OR postbit_legacy (only edit both if you use both)
At The Very Top Add

Code:

<!--LightBox By Dave At FightRice -->
<if condition="$show['thumbnailattachment']">
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/scriptaculous.js?load=effects"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/lightbox.js"></script>
<!-- / Light Box -->
<else />
<!-- Nothing To Load Here-->
</if>
<!-- /LightBox -->

Save and close

2. Next open postbit_attachmentthumbnail find <a after add

Code:

rel="lightbox[attachment]"

Save and close

3. Next Open the headinclude template Find

Code:

<!-- / CSS Stylesheet -->

Replace with

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="clientscript/vbulletin_css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<!-- / CSS Stylesheet -->

Save and close

Thats all for template edits:
Now upload the contents of the clientscript into your forums. You should end up with this structure
/forums/clientscript/vbulletin_css/lightbox.css
/forums/clientscript/ - All the .js files go inside this folder

Next Upload the images into the webroot.ex
http://www.yoursite.com/images/lightboximages.gif (note this isnt an actual image, its an example)

Thats all there should be

User Configuration Options below If you do not feel comfortable doing this, dont
its not neccasary. if you come up with a cool effect please share it.
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the clientscript/lightbox.js file these lines you can config to suite your needs
__________________________________________________ _________________________________

Code:

var fileLoadingImage = "/images/loading.gif";		
var fileBottomNavCloseImage = "/images/closelabel.gif";

var resizeSpeed = 7;	// controls the speed of the image resizing (1=slowest and 10=fastest)

var borderSize = 10;	//if you adjust the padding in the CSS, you will need to update this variable

__________________________________________________ _________________________________
clientscript/vbulletin_css/lightbox.css

THIS IS FOR THE IMAGE RESIZE VERSION - USE lightboxresize.zip DO NOT USE BOTH!

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\/
Dynamic Lightbox auto resize - and image overlay.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\/

If using a previous version of this hack, please remove all instances, delete all old files
and undo any templae edits. easy way is to simply follow the old instructions, and simply remove
things instead of add.

This lightbox will automatically resize images to your screen, and all for full size viewing.
Feel free to edit as you see fit.

First Step. open lightbox_plus.js at the very end find

Code:

// === PLEASE EDIT TO MATCH YOUR SITE ===
addEvent(window,"load",function() {
	var lightbox = new LightBox({
		loadingimg:'http://www.YOURSITE.com/images/loading.gif',
		expandimg:'http://www.YOURSITE.com/images/expand.gif',
		shrinkimg:'http://www.YOURSITE.com/images/shrink.gif',
		effectimg:'http://www.YOURSITE.com/images/zzoop.gif',
		effectpos:{x:-40,y:-20},
		effectclass:'effects',
		closeimg:'http://www.YOURSITE.com/images/close.gif'
	});
});

Replace all YOURSITE.com with the actual address you will keep everything. pretty simple.
Save and close.

Create the zzoop.gif image to match your site,

Upload lightbox_plus.js to the /yourforumlocation/clientscript folder

Upload lightbox.css into /yourforumlocation/clientscript/vbulletin_css folder

Upload all images into http://www.YOURSITE.com/images

*MAKE SURE ALL PREVIOUS INSTALLATIONS ARE REMOVED AT THIS POINT*
Login to AdminCP -> Styles Templates -> headinclude template

add at the very end.

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="clientscript/vbulletin_css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen,tv" />

Save and close

Next open the postbit_attachmentthumbnail

After <a add

Code:

rel="lightbox"

If you want the image overlay, also add (or if you changed the effectclass in lightbox_plus.js use what you changed it to)

Code:

class="effects"

Save, and close.

in the postbit_legacy or postbit, place this code at the very top

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/lightbox_plus.js"></script>

This should produce similar results to the last one, there is no next or previous buttons though.

Enjoy it.

ooo...just notice Ntfu2 is in there again, best leave it alone...

I have just clicked the image and it automatically goes to the next image
but it aint showing the buttons

EDIT: ok Ntfu2, cheers for all ya help m8, its much appreciated

bashy · #73 05-16-2006, 06:03 PM

Does anyone else find this in Firefox...
When you 1st view the image its just normal (as it was before)
then when you refresh the page it shows it as its meant with this hack?

This only applies to Firefox and is 100% in IE
Also the page is still pretty slow to load for me Ntfu2 (that thread you started)

babynino · #74 05-16-2006, 06:11 PM

This is awesome! perfect for a mac discussion forum with aqua-soft theme... It's just perfect! Will vote for hack of the year!

Thanks for porting this to vB.

Installed.

i have this issue. it's just that the js files take a second to load. if you wait (give it like 10 seconds to be generous) and THEN click, it should load the hack properly immediately

bashy · #76 05-16-2006, 06:45 PM

Ah so i see, me just being impatient

Cheers for that m8

It also does it in IE bashy. But it is a matter of being patient to allow the js to load...Be well -

Lady Divus <----Isnt patient either

Installed, thanks

Oddjob · #79 05-16-2006, 07:56 PM

Im kinda confused on how to update this from the one released yesterday.

Which template edits do i re-do?

The instructions are rather vague.

Dr.Viggy · #80 05-16-2006, 08:07 PM

Ntfu2 will be updating the instructions this evening to make everything clear and concise. hang in there for his update

Ntfu2 · #81 05-16-2006, 08:51 PM
