The caption option for lytebox controls what appears in the popup image window (that is the default behavior). To add captions next to the thumbnails, you can probably edit shiba-slimbox.php, and add whatever captions html to the render function.

I’m using lytebox and trying to get titles of the image to show up underneath each image. Can’t seem to get it to work using the caption shortcode. What could I be doing wrong? Do captions show up with the lytebox using that shortcode, or do I have to do something different?

Thank you!

is it possible to set the image title/caption to the post that it was attached to ?

If you include a post, page, or gallery, the image title/caption will be set to the title of the post. You can also include a short excerpt of the post by setting the gallery caption to description.

do u have to create a seperate page for each lot of images if you want to use pagination ?

I just use the standard WordPress nextpage marker. For example –

[gallery category="109" type="native" post_type="post" order="DESC" caption="title" numberposts="15"]

<!–nextpage–>
[gallery category="109" type="native" post_type="post" order="DESC" caption="title" numberposts="15" page="2"]

do u have to create a seperate page for each lot of images if you want to use pagination ?

Have a good one!

Hello Marco,

Try doing the following –

global $shiba_gallery; 
echo $shiba_gallery->parse_gallery_shortcode("", array('id' => "10"));

I tested this in a page template and it works on my setup. Let me know if you have problems.

Great work, and thanks for shearing!
I was trying to output a gallery with php code too, using the function you suggested (below you can find the code), but the problem is that in this way the page miss the footer shortcode, therefore the gallery that shows up in the page is not animated, I tried then to echo the_shiba gallery_footer function but I wasn’t able to make it function, what I did wrong?

if (class_exists(“Shiba_Gallery”)) {
$instance = new Shiba_Gallery();
}
if (isset($instance)) {
echo $instance->parse_gallery_shortcode(”, $instance->options[‘default_gallery’]);
}

And than after the content:

if (isset($instance)) {
echo $instance->shiba_gallery_footer();
}

Thanks a lot in advance,

Marco

The function returns the gallery HTML string which will include all the image URLs etc. So you can do –

echo parse_gallery_shortcode($output, $attr);

OR

$output = parse_gallery_shortcode($output, $attr);
/* Further process $output */

Thanks. I’m going to try this. So $output could produce URLs of attached pictures, for example?
