What is this?

This is a fluidbox integration for the Ghost.org Blogging Platform that I've developed. By adding a single line to the footer section in the Ghost Admin Panel, it adds additional functionality to the blogging platform. When you click on an image, either standalone or in a gallery, it will pop a modal to reveal a larger view of that image. It is customizable via a configuration object.

This is a classic ride.

Features

  • Both stand-alone and gallery images are clickable. This doesn't include images added via markdown mode.
  • Auto-dismiss on scroll
  • Ability to use image as back-drop
  • Ability to show captions in modal
  • Ability to navigate images with arrow keys.

How to use

Drop this line into your site-footer section in the ghost admin panel

  <script async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/coreysnyder04/fluidbox-ghost-blog-plugin@0.1.0/fluidbox-ghost-blog-plugin.min.js"></script>

Customization

Currently you can customize two different things by adding this above that script:

<script>
    window.fluidboxGhostConfig = {
      theme: 'image-backdrop', // Options: light, dark, image-backdrop, hsla(262, 100%, 82%, 0.6)
      showCaption: true, // Sets whether to capture the caption and show it below the image when expanded
    }
</script>

Versioning

Updates to Ghost Blogging Platform which change the HTML affecting images might break this integration. To combat this I will release versions which align with the versions of Ghost.
