Creating a customisable gallery

  • Hi, I have been researching ways to implement a CMS gallery with thumbnails and the current image selected displayed on the same page, is this possible with the nextgen plugin? I don’t want it to open in a lightbox, but instead above or at the side of the thumbnails, like this but I don’t need the carousel effect. I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction of a plugin, or template, or both.

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    I had this very same idea, and found that the Author of the NextGen Gallery provided a very useful sample here of building your own custom view for the gallery. I was able to build a few small plugins which implement some widely used jQuery Gallery plugins to achieve this, so you can control the look and feel, as well as not implementing a lightbox if you wish.

    You can basically create your own small plugin, install it and activate it along side the NextGen Gallery plugin. The link above should get you started though.

    Good luck,
    Harry
