Cover image link for lightbox functionality

    Hi,

    I want to be able to have the cover image on book pages be clickable to open into a larger version via lightbox effect. I’ve successfully edited the single-book.php file to automatically add a link around the cover images to the original, full-size cover image (also adding a rel attribute to allow wp-video-lightbox to work) and it works beautifully. Unfortunately, since the PHP files get overwritten with plugin updates, my fix isn’t permanent.

    Would it be possible to have a feature added where we can choose to have a link to the original cover file included on the cover image for the book pages, so we can then activate a lightbox effect?

    Thanks, love the plugin by the way! 🙂

    Hello,

    Glad the plugin is helpful for you!

    Showing the cover in a lightbox is a feature that is included in the Additional Images extension: http://www.bookmanager.mooberrydreams.com/downloads/additional-images/

    Oh, thanks so much for bringing this to my attention! Looks like it might suit my needs.

    A couple questions:

    • Do you also offer a lifetime license option?

    • If I only have one cover image per book, will that still work, and will it display thumbnails below the cover even if there’s only one image? (I suppose I can hide the thumbnails via CSS).

    Thanks again for the info and the prompt reply. 🙂

    No, there is no lifetime license option at this time.

    If there is only one cover image, no thumbnails will be displayed.
