Adding an image link popup window resized to fit image?

Let me advertise my Sticky Image plugin (again). It has many features to help image uploading, including this one. Maybe it satisfies your needs.

I tried it but it didn’t work–but I was probably trying to use it for something else than what it was intended for. I basically have my own websie structure with different image folders for different categories–all already have thumbnails available. I simply want to insert a thumbnail into a blog entry, link that to a popup window that resizes to the size of the larger image.

I have another problem right now–images and text cling to each other and I can’t get them to space apart or form new lines. I tied to do the “Wrapping Text around Images” tutorial, and it’s not surprising that I failed to get it to work as I know nothing about coding and is guessing my way through it all.

In Sticky Image you need to upload all images again, that’s true. But that could be worth it. You should read the README.TXT exactly, as you need to slightly edit two files in wp-admin-folder. Nothing complicated, but elsewise your uploads won’t work.

Sticky Image probably does what you want, but I can only guess. It takes the image, resizes it (configurable), puts a thumbnail into the entry (text floating around), links it and opens a window with correct size (javascript) when you click on the thumbnail. You can also enter a text to each image, which is displayed underneath.

Sounds exactly like the things you wanted.

I really do need the images in their proper directories though, as I have thousands of pictures all sorted in different directories, and they need to remain organized.

Currently, I’m just generating java scripts from Dreamweaver, then cut & paste them into WordPress. Seems to work–although it’s a bit tedius.

Then – currently – I cannot help you, but I’m thinking of a new feature in Sticky Image now, where you put a remote (server-side) filename for image & thumbnail into the post-form and things get formatted then the way Sticky Image usually does…
