Sidebar Photoblog

Share your daily/family photos on your wordpress blog easily.

sidebar-photoblog2

There are several photoblog plugins for WordPress around the Internet. Most of them, think that you are a professional photographer that make lots of money via your camera every month but I don’t think so!

Sidebar Photoblog doesn’t use lots of server resource and hasn’t many confusing options. It uses WordPress functions to get maximom  compatibility and flexibility.

Sidebar Photoblog is simple, light and easy to use. It also has some nice effects and an archive page for your photos.

It’s first release so let me know if you found a bug or have any comment.

WordPress Sidebar Photoblog

Frequently Asked Questions

= How can I use it? =

Plugin automatically creates a category called ‘Sidebar Photoblog’ and a page as photo archive:’Browse Photos’. You can edit that category and page via WordPress but “[sphoto_archive]” should remain in the page content.

To insert your photos:

1) Click for new post and choose photoblog category (usally ‘Sidebar Photoblog’).

2) Upload your photo via WordPress Editor (don’t use ‘From URL’ tab).

3) Insert full size image into post and publish it.

That’s all!

It’s completely flexible you can upload several photos or add your own content.

= Any other thing? =

-You can customize padding, borders,etc using CSS (First disable style related options in widget settings).

-If your theme can’t show large photos properly change ‘Max Width’ in Settings->Media. You can also change thumbnail size and size of preview pop-up image(’Medium size’) over there.

    Hello, I have installed your sidebar photo blog and I love how it looks on my bog and works, although I now have a problem I was wondering if you could help me with. With the sidebar blog installed my next page link no longer works, it says page two in my address bar, but the articles are still from the current page so I am unable to access archived posts beyond the 10 that fits on a page. Have you come across this problem and do you know a fix?

    ممنون از پلاگین بسیار کارآمد و مفیدتان. من شروع به استفاده از این پلاگین کرده ام ولی یک مشکل اصلی و چند پیشنهاد دارم. مشکل اصلی من در تغییر اندازه ی تصاویر بندانگشتی (thumbnail) است. با تغییر تصویر بندانگشتی در ستون کناری تمام اندازه های تصاویر بندانگشتی در کل سایت تغییر می کند. آیا راهی هست که اندازه ی تصویر بندانگشتی در این پلاگ این را به طور مستقل از تنظیمات سایت تغییر داد؟
    پیشنهاداتم هم از این قرار است:
    ۱. افزودن صفحه ی تنظیمات برای تغییرات پلاگین
    ۲. مستقل کردن فایل CSS.
