Slider gallery

Post by runningsoul »

Hi, Have been trying the mobile friendly templates, but there doesn't seem to be an image swipe option where we can drag images in a gallery left and right (or up and down). Is that something you've considered? Thanks.

Hi, Just found this and if something like this could be incorporated (with the EXIF etc title and caption options with each image) that would be fantastic. When viewed on a tablet or phone, the natural inclination is to swipe the pictures left and right, so this would improve the mobile options available in your software.

https://photoswipe.com/

This is exactly what we're looking for as includes image titles/captions with the swiping through photos in the gallery.

Thanks.

OK, thanks. I'll see if it's possible to incorporate this script into Extreme Thumbnail Generator.

OK, I successfully generated a photo gallery with PhotoSwipe 4 in Extreme Thumbnail Generator. It does look good. I'll create a couple of templates with this script now and release a new version.

Might anyone have an example with the "Swipe" feature I can look at?

Thanks

Yeah, I hate over-writing all my modded templates. Guess I should save them with a new name when I do that and then no more problems. :-)
