[Plugin: Easy FancyBox] Disable Fancybox on individual images

There is no way to disable FancyBox for only a few images while leaving automatic attachment ON for every other image… You will need to switch the Auto-enable option OFF ( Admin > Settings > Media ) and manually enable it for those images that you DO want FancyBox to work on.

This is done by giving all the links that you want to open in a FancyBox overlay, a class name specifically for FancyBox. Class names you can use are:

• “fancybox” for images
• “fancybox-swf” for Flash files
• “fancybox-youtube” or “fancybox-vimeo” for movie site pages
• “fancybox-pdf” for PDF files
• “fancybox-iframe” or “fancybox iframe” for web pages

To give you an example with class=”fancybox”:

<a href="/big.img" class="fancybox" rel="gallery" title="Image title"><img src="/thumbnail.img" alt="Image title" /></a>

Notice the rel=”gallery” ? If you have multiple images in your post and want to show them in a FancyBox gallery then you will need to give them all a similar rel name. The name choice is yours and you can group images in different gallery groups by using different rel names…

Thank you for the info, Ravan.

I do, indeed, want to have FancyBox load in 98% of cases. In the others, I have images I want to load full-screen so they can be viewed in detail.

So, I have a request for a future update. A similar plugin (but for Thickbox) does this: if an image has a specific class (“nothickbox”), then the filter isn’t invoked. That way the class can be added for the few exceptions.

If you added such as feature, your plugin would immediately be a 5-star in my book.

In any case, thank you for your work. My clients’ user experiences are greatly improved due to your plugin.

i will consider it for the next update ??

J, in the new version 1.3.4.6 there is class nofancybox for excluding individual links. ??

Yours is now definitely the best light/fancybox plugin.

Thank you very much!
