Lytebox Plugin for Boltwire
Description
Plugin adds a function call that enables the use of the Lytebox system. Lytebox allows you to display a smaller image and link it to a larger image (or different content) when it is clicked on. When clicked on, the background will darken and the content will be displayed in a box at the size requested.
Download
Available from the Boltwire site in the Extensions section

After you have lytebox installed and you have installed this plugin, you can use lytebox on a page like:
lyteframe:Variables

| rel | lytebox lyteshow or lyteframe | Required |

| img | Must contain image to show before action | Required |

CleanURL's
If you use cleanURL, you will need to exclude the directory that lytebox is installed into.
I install it in the webroot /lytebox and have reorganized all of its content within that directory for portability. You may need to install it differently.
Installing Lytebox in a selfcontained directory
- Download lytebox zip file (Lytebox_v3.2.zip for example)
- Extract zip to website. Should create a directory called Lytebox_v.3.2)
- Rename directory to lytebox OR symbolic link the version named directory to lytebox
- Modify lytebox.css file in the lytebox directory so that all references to images is changed to /lytebox/images
