I am trying to: create an image slider with lightbox with repearting image fields

Dear,

I already found this: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/generate-slide-on-my-slider/ and this works without a light box.
but I was wondering if it is also possible via an other option to create a slider with repeating image custom fields with a lightbox.

Look forward to your response

Hi Merle,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Do you mean if you click on an image it will open the image in a light box and then you can still see it slide in that lightbox?

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Shane

Dear Shane,

Yes that is what I mean.

Look forward to your response.

ps. I also found something that had to do with views but that was about featured posts in combination with views.

Hi Merle,

Thanks for the clarity.

Unfortunately not, there might be plugins that are able to do this, however it might just be displaying the single image in a light box.

Thanks,
Shane

Dear Shane
Thanks for your reply. Are there any other options than flex slider to create an image slider on a single custom post page?

Best regards Merle

Hi Merle,

Currently the flexslider is the best option, as it allows you to build the slider manually using HTML.

However doing some searching I was able to stumble upon this.

hidden link

However you will need to integrate the javascript that comes with this into wordpress for it work.

Thanks,
Shane

Dear Shane,

Thank you. I look it up and I only see single images in a gallery with the ability of a lightbox. Do you think it is possible with this to combine it with a slider?

Best regard Merle

Hi, Shane is on holiday this week so I'm checking in on his open support tickets. I looked at the example Shane provided and there is a section called "Inline buttons and fade effect" that includes a gallery with paginated images. The effect in this gallery is "fade", but you could use "slide" instead, according to their documentation here: http://tosrus.frebsite.nl/configuration.php

Is this more like what you are expecting? If not, please tell me more details about what you would like to achieve.

Dear Christian,

I will try that too thanks!
But I also tried another type of the flexslider from woothemes:
hidden link
Unfortunutaly I do not get the control nav thumbnails shown. I get like my uploaded picture flexslider.png.

This is my code:

HTML:
<div class="flexslider">
<ul class="slides">
[wpv-for-each field="wpcf-foto-paard"]

[types field='foto-paard' title='%%TITLE%%' alt='%%ALT%%' align='none' size='large' resize='proportional' separator=', '][/types]

[/wpv-for-each]

</div>

JS:
// Can also be used with $(document).ready()
$(window).load(function() {
$('.flexslider').flexslider({
animation: "slide",
controlNav: "thumbnails"
});
});

the normal basic slider from woothemes worked.

Look forward to your response.

Okay, I will need to see this in a browser to be able to make additional recommendations. Is your site online somewhere I can preview? If login credentials are needed, please provide them in the private fields here.
