    rokbox help!

    Posted 15 years 11 months ago
    • I am confused on how to use it. I have the versatility template. I have added the rokbox system and content plugins.

      I have it semi-working. I have inserted my <a rel="rokbox" http="..."></a> and can get my content to show up, but the box is not big enough. How do I change the size?

      where does this snippet go? {rokbox...}link{/rokbox}

    • Can someone please show me exactly how to code RokBox. The doc is confusing with the a rel and the the info on how to set it up. I've tried different approaches trying to understand, but can't get RokBox to work. It shows the images I have set as a thumb when I use the syntax provided minus (a rel, etc), but only links to the image in browser window alone. How is the rel incorporated?

    • Angelica,

      There is two different ways to use RokBox; the first is with code like this: <a rel="rokbox" http="..."></a> that you enter with the HTML Editor.

      To increase your size there is two ways to do that. The first is through the parameters in the RokBox module. You can set the default size to your preferred dimensions. They are the first two parameters in the picture below.

      The second way is to include it in your rel="rokbox" part like this: <a rel="rokbox [700 500]" http="..."></a> where 700 is the width and 500 is the height.

      You can also put in Titles and descriptions that will show up on the RokBox when it is opened by including another parameter in your link code. The code is this: title="Example :: RocketWerx Official Home Page" and it would go in your link code like this: <a rel="rokbox [700 500]" title="Example :: RocketWerx Official Home Page" http="..."></a>

      So now you will have a box that is 700px by 500px, with a title of Example and a description of RocketWerx Official Home Page

      Now the second way to code is to use the WYSIWYG editor and to put this code, {rokbox...}link{/rokbox}, directly in it. You will not notice that it is working until you apply it and view the actual page. The way you would specify the width, height and other parameters is a little different.

      It would look like this instead: {rokbox size=|700 500| title=|Example :: RocketWerx Official Home Page| } http="..." {/rokbox}

      There are many more parameters that can be included, but hopefully this will give you a good start.
