Lightbox Gallery

Part of set Lightbox Gallery.
This resource allows you to create 'Lightbox' enabled image galleries within your Moodle course. As a course teacher, you are able to create, edit and delete galleries. Smallthumbnails will then be generated, which are used for the thumbnail view of the gallery.
Latest release:
3577 sites
1k downloads
100 fans
Current versions available: 11

Clicking on any of the thumbnails brings that image into focus, and allows you to scroll through the
gallery at your leisure. Using the Lightbox scripts creates nice transition effects when loading and
scrolling through the images.

    I'm Using Moodle Version 3.0 and moodle mobile version 3.2.0 with plugin Moodle Mobile additional features installed , but the resource "Lightbox Gallery" does not work on my mobile application .

    It represents an error message :-

    " Uh oh!

    Your organisation installed a plugin that is not yet supported .

    contact the site administrator and tell them you want to use this activity with the Moodle Mobile app."

    Hi Akram,

    Unfortunately I haven't had the time yet to add support for the mobile app to this plugin. It's on a list of things to do, but admittedly isn't very high on that list.

    As with all things Moodle - if anyone is keen to take a crack at an implementation for it, that'd be awesome.

    Hi everyone,

    I have just upgraded our site on a new server running Ubuntu 16, PHP7.0 and Moodle 3.1.

    We had the lightbox gallery plugin installed, I did the upgrade changing the git branch being used for this module to MOODLE_31_STABLE. Now when any admin tries to get to /admin pages we are getting an error 500.

    If we take the module folder away, the admin page returns but the only page we get is the "Plugins need attention" as if it were an upgrade, saying the module files are missing from disk... Once I put them back, the error 500 comes back.

    Permissions are OK, as the site runs fine without this module installed!

    I can't uninstall the module, as I can't get into the admin pages

    Any thoughts?

    Hi.

    I am trying this plugin in Moodle 3.3 and all appears Ok but this do not display any image.
    I get the next error in the console:
    "Error in source mapping: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data URL del recurso:
    https://xxxxxx/lib/requirejs.php/-1/core/first.js URL of the source mapping: popper.es5.js.map"

    Any help?
    Thanks

    Hi Agustin,
    The plugin doesnt use popper - so I'm guessing there's an issue with another plugin or change you have that is interferring with javascript on other pages.

    I'd like to be able to add video files, open the first slide automatically, and check whether students have viewed all images. Is it possible those features might be added in future versions?

    Thanks!

    There is a setting in Advanced section whether to Display full caption text. When set to No caption text is trimmed on both places - gallery and enlarged image. When set to Yes, full caption text is displayed both in the gallery and when image is enlarged. It will be great to have choice to display full caption text only when image is enlarged and not in the gallery so could look tidy.
