Hi,

Did a search on this but can't find it, I'm just wondering if it's possible to have the full sized image come up in a pop-up. The reason I ask is that I have g2 embedded into Wordpress (thanks to the good people at http://wpg2.ozgreg.com/), and so it takes my theme which is set at 800 pixels wide. This means that any photo I place in my gallery can't be any bigger than 800 pixels wide without it destroying my sites layout.

Howver I'd like to be able to have higher quality images than that, so as you can see serving them as a pop-up would be perfect, from an intermediary image of say 640x480.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks a lot :)

if you're using Siriux layout with wordpress then you already have it showing resizes only with a download link for full size.. make a local singleBody.tpl that adds target="_blank" or whatever in that link.

The WP plugin has a template for g2 that includes a pop-up.

Is there any way that a link to the full version in a popup can be added to the standard matrix style g2?

I'd be surprised if more templates and themes weren't created once G2 is finalized. And its possible to put such a link in a Template

Anyone got a link to the instructions for how to do this in g2? I know how to do it in 1.5, and posted my modifications in the forum for that, but searching for terms like full size photo and popup give me thousands of results to go through, so a link would be very helpful. Thanks for the help.

Try limiting your search to G2 category.

I fear a slow connection and a large forum are not being my friends, does anyone else happen to remember thread title or anything else that would help me find it? (Or have a link to save me the searching :wink:)

Thanks
