Intaglio: a WordPress/GreyBox Integration Plug-In

dave — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 23:09:30 +0000

Intaglio is a project dedicated to implementing Orangoo Labs’ GreyBox Project within WordPress. Greybox is a snazzy little bit of JavaScript which allows a savvy programmer to imbed other pages, or in this implementation, an image gallery, within an existing web page. Currently, the system is compatible only with WordPress 2.1.

JavaScript code allows links to be created which, rather than redirecting the browser or opening another window, create a modeless window within (and separated with an alpha screen) the existing parent page.

The intaglio implementation is designed to allow an image gallery within a WordPress context. WordPress allows posters to upload images associated with posts, and Intaglio allows simple insertion of a GreyBox-based browsable gallery into the page.

Example:

View Image Gallery

Current Status:

Version 0.1.0 (Feb 28, 2007)

Initial implementation allows creation of a text linked gallery, but requires the manual insertion of header javascript, and the manual install of the GreyBox packages.

Version 0.2.0 (Mar 3, 2007)

This implementation allows a single installation step, and allows WordPress to manage the insertion of both header script and css information, and the insertion of a gallery link with a thumbnail. WordPress is adding some strange HTML elements in the inserted text, and styles are not applying correctly. This will be changed in a future version.

Version 0.3.0 (upcoming)

Features include: a button-snap-like insertion mechanism in the RTF-toolbar, making it easier to insert a gallery.

Version 1.0.0 (upcoming)

Correct Stylesheet Application
RTF-toolbar integration
Clean HTML for the gallery link
Modification to upload process to allow the user to remove an image from those displayed in GreyBox
