Hi Fellow warees,

I have a question in wordpress I am using plugin " Flexible Lightbox" and what I am trying to figure out is, if a page has say 3 sets of images on it, how can I tell lightbox to only open first set.... Then user clicks on second set and it only shows that set..

Hope you can understand what I am saying. I have tried using a "rel" tag in images but doesnt work.

If i have 9 images on a page, and say first 3 are "x" product i only want it to cycle through the 3 pics. Instead what it does now is cycles through the whole 9 images.

Any help would be great.

Looking at http://web-argument.com/wp-content/u...009/02/tag.jpg, it appears that the plugin uses the class attribute (e.g. <a class="lightbox"...), which you'd need to remove to exclude that image from being displayed in the Lightbox.

You'd need to go into the HTML of the page / post and remove the class, and see if that works. However, the plugin docs do state that it has a setting to automatically add the class=lightbox to images, so I'm not sure whether it'll simply try to re-add the necessary code again.

  Hi N7
  
  Appreciate your time in having a look... a thanks coming your way....
  
  After searching for a few hours I have tried a few different lightbox plugins and as naykantana says...jquery.
  
  I found a nifty plugin which I have just trialled and is actually easier than flexible lightbox plugin in the "rel" tag on any image you simply put " lightbox" and it shows up well. or in my case " lightbox-blah-blah" and then the images do indeed show up seperately.
  
  Had a quick look at your business theme, looks great. Do you do custom themes???
  
  As in my signature I do wordpress sites for clients, and although I customize existing templates I have had a few ask me lately about proper like psd to wp themes...
