Creates polaroids of images on the fly for thumbnails in posts. Support for lightbox included. Built on modified Polaroid-o-nizer v0.7.2 sources.<\/p>\n\n
I wanted to mimic the Polaroid look that you can achieve with Google Picasa to add thumbnails to my posts. I found a plugin titled WP-Polaroidonizer that did what I wanted to some extent but it didn't have the right feel to it.<\/p>\n\n
The other problem I have with Polaroid-o-nizer and WP-Polaroidonizer is the lack of security. When I mention lack of security there is by default no way to restrict external sites and users from generating Polaroid pictures using your installation of Polaroid-o-nizer.<\/p>\n\n
The goal of this plugin was to use rel= style html img tags to transform a simple URL into a Lightbox URL in which there is a thumbnail image in your post which is linked to an image that can be loaded using Lightbox or any of the Lightbox clones\/alternatives.<\/p>\n\n
polaroid-on-the-fly<\/code> folder from the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n- Upload the new
polaroid-on-the-fly<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n- Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
Usage<\/h3>\n\n\nCreate an image link in your post in the following format:<\/p>\n\n
<\/p><\/li>\n
Be sure to include rel=\"polaroid\"<\/code> as this activates the plugin.<\/p><\/li>\n- If
alt=\"Picture[album]\"<\/code> is included the portion listed here as Picture will be displayed as the image title in Lightbox and the portion listed as [album]<\/code> will group multiple pictures into an album called album. The alt tag is not required and if used the [album]<\/code> portion is not required. Read the Lightbox usage for more details on Titles and albums.<\/li>\n- Be sure to place each html img tag on a separate line.<\/li>\n
- This plugin supports the following image formats: jpg, png, gif<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

\n- What Do The Error Messages Mean:<\/dt>\n
- <\/dd>\n
- Source image resolution below min (200x200px)<\/dt>\n
The image referenced in the image tag has a resolution less than 200x200 pixels.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- Source image resolution above max (2000x2000px)<\/dt>\n
The image referenced in the image tag has a resolution greater than 2000x2000 pixels.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- Source URL Incorrect of does not Exist<\/dt>\n
The URL of the image referenced in the image tag does not exist.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- Background color is invalid use RGB only<\/dt>\n
The background color specified on the options page is not a valid 24 bit RGB color. When written, RGB values in 24 bits per pixel (bpp), also known as Truecolor, are commonly specified using three integers between 0 and 255, each representing red, green and blue intensities, in that order. For example:\n* white is 255,255,255\n* black is 0,0,0\n* red is 255,0,0\n* green is 0,255,0\n* blue is 0,0,255<\/p><\/dd>\n
- Source image unknown file type (jpg,gif,png only)<\/dt>\n
You should never see this message. The regex used to find the img tag with rel=\"polaroid\" will only select img tags including jpg,gif and png. I figured hey why not create a useless image it may come in handy some day.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- PHP GD Module Not Found. Polaroid on the Fly will not work. See http:\/\/us.php.net\/gd for installation information.<\/dt>\n
You need to have the PHP GD Module Installed. This plugin requires the GD module to make the polaroid image. This plugin will not function without this module.<\/p><\/dd>\n
- PHP GD Module Found. However, it does not include support for GIF. You will not be able to use a GIF for the source image. See http:\/\/us.php.net\/gd for more information.<\/dt>\n
You have the PHP GD Module installed but the GD version does not support GIF images. This plugin will still work but you will not be able to use a GIF for the source image.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
