Lightbox Gallery free WordPress plugin

Importance:
From 0.7.1, the default view changed to Colorbox due to the license regulation by the plugin directory. If you would prefer the prior Lightbox to Colorbox, you need to get the script from the setting page.

The Lightbox Gallery plugin changes the view of galleries to the lightbox.

• Lightbox display of Gallery
• Tooltip view of caption of images
• Displays the associated metadata with images
• Divides Gallery into several pages
• Extends the default Gallery options
• Additional settings are set in the option page
• Switch to the Highslide JS display

You can also make regular images appear in a lightbox. See Faq.

How to use this plugin is basically the same as the way to add [gallery] which has been adopted
by over WordPress 2.5. Lightbox Gallery plugin automatically converted the default view of gallery
into the lightbox view. Photo captions are displayed as tooltips. Photo descriptions are displayed
when the lightbox pops up.

aperture, focal length, shutter speed, and created timestamp.

[gallery meta=”true”]

• class
