I am pleased to announce the launch of the latest version of the jQuery plugin, gallerificPlus.

Following on from some fantastic comments and feedback from some users, I have added in the ability to set the image slideshow transitions to play as soon as the gallery is loaded.

By default, this is set to ‘true’ in the plugin. To disable the autoPlay, simply add one line to the gallery instantiation code within the HTML file, as below:

var gallery = $('#gallery').galleriffic('#navigation', {
delay:                          2000,
numThumbs:                12,
imageContainerSel:       '#slideshow',
controlsContainerSel:    '#controls',
titleContainerSel:          '#image-title',
descContainerSel:        '#image-desc',
downloadLinkSel:         '#download-link',
fixedNavigation:            true,
galleryKeyboardNav:     true,
autoPlay:                     false
});

There was also an issue with two of the selector classes within the plugin code that caused an incompatability issue with jQuery 1.3.2. This has also been addressed and now works with the previous jQuery versions as well as the latest.

The updated source code can be found on the gallerificPlus projects page.

    Awesome script, am using it but for some reason, sometimes the slideshot and lightbox freezes and stops working and you have to refresh a few times before it continue back working.

    By freezes I mean no effects or slides change, light box is not initiated. Any ideas? I tried adding a no cache to the page, but still nothing.

    Kindest Regards,

    Nice plug in!
    I have some problems including 2 galleries with galleriffic in the same jsp file, it seems that be a global data that avoid me to see the 2 galleries independet.
    Do you know something about this?
    thanks.

    Hello!
    This is a really great script :)
    I’d like to ask you a question…
    Is it possible (once deleted the slideshows) to call the lightbox by clicking on the tumbs?
    Thank you.

      Hi Mirella

      I’m still in the process of updating the current version of gallerificPlus to include several cross-browser issues and enhancements. The lightbox function, however, only ‘fires’ when clicking on the larger image, not the thumbnail images.

    hi matt

    is it possible to place the image text underneath the thumbnails rather than under the image? i was trying to pad it out but that didn’t work.

    if its possible can you please show me?

    cheers

      Hey Hugo – I can’t see why not :) I’m (still) working on the revised version of the plugin to fix some of the old issues and to incorporate the latest libraries. I’ll try and address this in that release.

        Hi Matt, I’m also using GallerificPlus and I’ve been waiting for your update :) I have some issue just like Mirella. :)
