    Hi

    Using Rev for the first time. Installed Gallery and its working fine. I dont like the Gallerific plugin though. I want to use a Lightbox clone such as prettyPhoto so when a user clicks a thumbail it opens a popup. Usually I just add rel="prettyPhoto" to the image link but I can’t figure how to incorporate this with Gallery. Does it need to go in the Gallery snippet call? If so what’s the syntax needed? Or does it go somewhere else? I tried adding it to the galItemThumb chunk but it didn’t work.

    Any help would be super.

      You’re on the right track adding your rel to a template chunk. Did you set &thumbTpl to point to your thumbnail template? That’s basically how I did my galleries with Fancybox.
        Time is what keeps everything from happening all at once.

        gave up, ditched the gallery. went for a simpler, standard approach thats easier to control and understand for a noob.
        thanks anyway

          If you want to try to use Gallery again with your JS lightbox, maybe you could show us your Gallery call and template.

          I just added the Fancybox JS to my template header, create a thumb template with the rel="fancy-images" needed by Fancybox, added &thumbTpl=`[mythumbtemplate]` to my Gallery calls.
