WP-Slimbox2 Plugin

A WordPress implementation of the stellar Slimbox2 script by Christophe Beyls (an enhanced clone of the Lightbox script) which utilizes the jQuery library to create an impressive image overlay with slide-out effects.

Almost, if not all, options are configurable from the administration panel. For more on the settings and what they do check out the Slimbox2 page.

Support forums are generously hosted by Ryan Hellyer of PixoPoint, here.

Recent Changes in v1.1.3.1: 1. Changed index.php to UTF-8 without BOM encoding to resolve issues for some users. Recent Changes in v1.1.3: 1. Updated to Slimbox 2.05 to support WordPress 3.6 2. Removed unnecessary xfarbtastic.css
