Unfortunately not. I ended up writing my own plugin and using that instead. If you’d like I can send you a copy and then you could modify it however you need. Mine is pretty specific to the task at hand (didn’t think I’d be sharing it =) ) but you’re welcome to use it and modify it however you need. But if you improve on it, can you send me the improved version? =)
Never mind, just saw your email up above… Duh!!
so…. how do I get it to you?
I did get it working but it’s a fairly customized solution. I can provide it to you and you can take a look at the code and see if you could tweak it for your purposes. Basically what it does is take staff entries (posts with type = ‘staff’) and use them for showing up in the lightbox. I’m not sure if the ‘staff’ type is something from my theme or is a normal part of WordPress (I’m fairly new to the WordPress framework). There’s nothing proprietary in it, so it would be ok. =)
I’ve decided to build my own. I’m just testing it out now, but it’s pretty specific to the situation I’m in. It’s basically just using ColorBox straight from jQuery (not a modified version). I’ve set it up so that I can add any number of images and then when the user clicks on a link, their picture and bio information opens in the lightbox. I’ll probably modify it to be more general in a few days (on a tight deadline and have to get this done =) ). If you’d like, just post here (I get an email sent to me [I’m new to the forums so didn’t know that happened] ) and maybe we can figure out some way I can send you a copy (if you’d like).
I’ll add to this thread as well (saw it mentioned on your other question). I’m having the same issue. If I select 50 inline boxes, all is well. If I select 55, it will save settings up to 52 but not beyond (and in fact only partially – full width parameters not saved but I can save the width/height aspects on 53) and the admin formatting goes wonky (tabs do not show and are replaced by list of hyperlinks – everything displays on the page). Hope this can get fixed!

In reply to: [Lightbox Plus Colorbox] Having more than 5 inline lightbox settingsI give a +1 for this. Very strange, but selecting 55 in the dropdown – no saving, and the admin page goes wonky. If I put it back down to 50 and everything returns. I’m having another issue with the plugin and I’m wondering if the two are connected.
