I've made an improvement to it. Have the plugin displaying random thumbnails from my photogallery (non-WordPress). I wanted to be able to click on the image (stored in a thumbnail folder) and have it open a full-sized version of the image, which was stored in another folder (images). I was able to insert a link that opens - via Lightbox - the full-sized image. See it in action at http://dkaye.com/coldcoffee (look in the upper left-hand corner). Here's the extra code I used (hopefully this displays properly in this comment, if not email me and I'll give it to you.): <code>echo '<a href="http://yoursite.com/images/'.substr($image_filename,6).'" title="'.substr($image_filename,6,-4).'" rel="nofollow"></a>'; </code> In this example, I stripped the characters from the thumb and redirected it to the images folder instead, and applied image class attributes to make it "pretty." Thanks, dKaye Keith – love the plugin, and use it in my blog. I’ve made an improvement to it. Have the plugin displaying random thumbnails from my photogallery (non-WordPress).

Here’s the extra code I used (hopefully this displays properly in this comment, if not email me and I’ll give it to you.):

echo '';

In this example, I stripped the characters from the thumb and redirected it to the images folder instead, and applied image class attributes to make it “pretty.”

Thanks,

You can download it and hack out the code for the plugin (providing you keep reference to the original of course :mrgreen: ) but otherwise I'm not sure what to suggest... @Jose – Unless your forum is a wordpress forum, this plugin won’t work.
