Shiba Gallery 3.5

by ShibaShake 48 Comments

The Shiba Gallery Plugin allows you to display your WordPress galleries using a variety of Javascript libraries including Noobslide, TinySlideshow, SlimBox, Lytebox, Popeye, Picture Slides, and the WordPress native gallery.

You can display as many galleries as you want, and have different types of galleries within the same blog page.

Here is a detailed description of the Shiba Gallery Plugin.

New features for for Shiba Gallery 3.5 –

1. Link Argument

You now have the option to set your gallery links to file, attachment, or none.

  • link = “file” – Points gallery links to the source files.
  • link = “attachment” – Points gallery links to the image attachment page.
  • link = “none” – Just includes the title of the image with no link.

For example –

[gallery id="8686" frame="black" link="attachment" size="(220,220)"]

Artist-Picture1

Artist-Picture8

Artist-Picture21

Artist-Picture22

Artist-Picture7


link="attachment"


Artist-Picture1

Artist-Picture8

Artist-Picture21

Artist-Picture22

Artist-Picture7


link="none"

You may also assign a default link type to all your blog galleries and images. This is done through the new Shiba Gallery options menu in Media >> Shiba Gallery.

Look under Set Default Link, and pick the link type of your choice through a drop-down menu.

Once you are done with these settings, click on the Save Options button at the bottom of the page.

2. Expanded Caption Shortcode

The standard WordPress caption shortcode has been expanded to deal with images and galleries.

For example –

[caption align="alignleft" width="220" frame="green" caption="frame='green'"]
<img src="http://shibashake.com/wordpress-theme/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Artist_Picture_Thumb5.jpg"/>
[/caption]
frame='green'
frame='black'

You may now specify which frame to use for an image within the caption shortcode. Images that are not captioned (e.g. emoticons or gravatar images) will no longer be framed.

You may also use the caption shortcode with galleries.

For example –

[caption align="aligncenter" caption="This caption shortcode contains a gallery instead of an image."]
[gallery id="8686" size="large"]
[/caption]

Artist-Picture1

Artist-Picture8

Artist-Picture21

Artist-Picture22

Artist-Picture7


This caption shortcode contains a gallery instead of an image.

3. Lytebox

The Lytebox gallery by Markus F. Hay has been added back to the plugin as requested by Shelley.

SlimBox is more efficient than Lytebox but it does not resize images that are larger than the browser window whereas Lytebox does. Therefore, if you have really large images or odd-sized images that extend outside the browser window, then you may want to use Lytebox instead of SlimBox.

    I was showing someone my site, and to my dismay, the grid style galleries that I set up seems to have broken. I used Shiba on all of my gallery pages, and an image slider for the portfolio. Has Shiba been confirmed to NOT be compatible with wordpress 3.5.1 or should I try and roll back to 3.5?

      Ok, I checked out one of your gallery pages.
      – It looks like you are using an older version of the plugin. Please refer to the main plugin page for updates and most recent versions. Current version should be 4.0+.
      http://shibashake.com/wordpress-theme/shiba-gallery.zip
      – It looks like you are using multiple different gallery plugins. Therefore, there will be a high likelihood of conflict.

      In general, I find that it is best to test plugins and WP updates out on a test site first before deploying.

    I’ve read many great reviews about Shiba gallery and the versatility and ease of use it provides, but have yet to experience any of this. I am not new to web design by any means, I would call my skill level ‘intermediate.’ However, I have only recently started using WP and so there are many simple structures about the tools available that I have yet to explore or understand fully.

    The problem I’m having though, is I can’t find any actual instructions on setting up a gallery with Shiba, and the only reference I can find for it throughout my WP dashboard is within the ‘media’ section under the Shiba gallery area. But, in this area the only relevant options I see is an ability to set the default image, specify the type of gallery I wish to create, and a few default options.

    Nowhere, though, am I finding an actual ability to create a gallery through this plugin or references to control a gallery I have created. Basically, I’m stuck on step 2, and can’t find a good source of information on how to proceed. I imagine I could sift through the .js code and .php code and figure all of this out, but that sort of seems like it would eliminate the purpose of using the plugin. please help.

      Hello Brian,

      The plugin uses gallery shortcodes similar to what is used in WP native.
      http://codex.wordpress.org/Gallery_Shortcode

      It just expands the shortcode attributes that can be used. Here are the expanded attributes-

    Hi Shiba,
    your site and your wordpress theme is amazing. I love it!
    I’m using WordPress since a few days and your tutorials helped me a lot to create my site like I want. Now I want to use your gallery plugin with the noobslide_galleria. It works well, but I have a problem with the links to my images. I want that the images open in a new window, when you click on the link below. How can I handle this? Thanks.

      Always great to hear from you! Especially love that horse render.

      Re: Images in new window
      1. Look in shiba-gallery-helper.php.
      2. Search for the “get_attachment_link” function.
      3. Change all instances of target=”_top” to target=”_blank” within the function.

      Re: Genesis Skins –
      Genesis Skins is a new child theme I created on top of the Genesis Framework from StudioPress. You can check out the Genesis framework at studiopress.com. I plan to release my child theme at some point, but I still have a bunch of things I have to work through with it and bugs to fix. I just did many many updates on my site so I will be busy with that for a while. Might be some time before I release Genesis Skins. 😀

      Definitely take a look at the studiopress site. They have many cool looking child themes there.

      Re: Number of Columns –
      The Genesis Framework has several templates with 1, 2, or 3 columns. Their site has some nice examples of the various templates. So yes, that option is still available but through the template system.

        Thanks a lot, Shiba. You are amazing! 🙂
        Glad you like my horse render. Will do some more with the Mill Horse, if I have some time.

        I will take a look at studiopress.com. But I think, I will wait for your release. I really love your style and your ideas. Maybe sometimes I understand how I can use the gallerys for my posts. It’s a little bit difficult for me to understand all your explanations in english. o.O.

        But that’s not your fault. You do a great job. Thanks for support and your great theme! 🙂
        *hugs*

      You can change the CSS for the galleria-info container in the galleria.classic.css file. For example replace top:15px; with bottom:60px;

    Wondering if there is a way to dynamically create a gallery based on the image tags in your plugin. For example I could create a static link to search and return a gallery for all image with a certain tag. Similar to the wordpress tagging. I know you can filter to create a gallery but it would be a turn key for me if I could use your Media Library tags to dynamically create a gallery. Thanks, Charlie

      To do that you the attach option in WordPress native Media Library. You can attach in bulk.

      Shiba Media Library extends some of the native media options.

    Galleries with thumbnail are very popular these days, and the Tiny gallery doesn’t work really well.
    This one is a great jquery gallery to include in shiba. I would love to see this integrated with your plugin: http://www.pikachoose.com/

    Just a suggestion.

      Hmmm, haven’t tried coding something like this before. I would start by looking at how WP native does it for each post, and then just modify that code.
