Litebox autoplay/slideshow for XF Gallery

[Alpha1]

A function in photopost that my users like is the function to hit the autoplay/slideshow button and just watch all the images go by. It would be nice to see that in XMG as well.

 

[Sim]

Yes, my users would love this - it is not unusual for us to get 100 new photos a day uploaded, and members like sitting back and looking at them all.

 

[Skylined]

I like the idea.

 

[RobinHood]

Yes, quite, this would be perfect for all those adult forum media galleries I happen to stumble upon. Where it's not alway convenient to have to click from one image to the next

 

[JoelR]

Yes to slideshow.

 

[RvG]

+1 from me

 

[Summit]

It would be great to have a play button on an album, even handier if there was a full screen mode too.

Pretty old suggestion, but still valid.

We are currently in the process of converting a larger forum from WoltLab to XenForo and I am pretty sure we'll get complaints from users as they will miss the slideshow

Guess we'll hae to implement this ourselves (for now).

It's going to be hard without any kind of lightbox in the current version.

XFMG really needs a feature upgrade. 5 years later I still would like to see this implemented. It would be a nice feature to have.

 

[Jim Fox]

As much as I like Xenforo, it boggles my mind that such simple and common sense requests like this can never be implemented. I am not sure why Xenforo and it's components are not actively being improved on and new features being added. That's the way you keep customers and bring new customers in.

Having said that, the core forum does ship with lightGallery http://sachinchoolur.github.io/lightGallery/

A little off topic from the OP suggestion, but one of the lightbox demos has sidebar comments (via Facebook comments plugin). Unfortunately it doesn't appear to work correctly on narrow displays, as the sidebar consumes the entire viewport.

lightGallery: comment box

It is easy to integrate third party comment boxes in lightgallery plugins. Here you will see how to integrate facebook comments in lightgallery
