Hi all
I'm trying to find a plugin/module that can generate a lightbox from a thumbnail image loaded in a module position ?
I've tried using Simple Image Gallery which worked great if used in an article, but wouldn't work if placed in a module position ?
I have a few modules with text and a thumbnail, I'd like for the user to be able to click the thumbnail and then see a larger image. Ideally in a lightbox format, rather than generating a new page.
Any suggestions ?
Cheers

Thanks for your reply however I understand it's not possible to get plugins to work in modules. Which is kinda-crazy given that Joomla is based around modules, but there we go !
www.rocketwerx.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=1898 - explains more.
This would infer that any other lightbox "application" would suffer from the same issue. Has anyone been able to load any form of gallery into a module position ?
Cheers
BTW - needs to be for Joomla 1.5.6

Ok found the fix real quick .. use the JCE image editor and set "Relationship page to target" to Lightbox in the Adv Settings tab.
Having one of those days !
