Decided it was time to update the theme. Now moved over to Brunelleschi 1.5.3 by Kit MacAllister. I’m all about letting the content speak for itself. I don’t like bright colors. I don’t like light fonts on dark backgrounds. The layout should be exactly the same, so hopefully no one will get lost.
As I was updating my theme and plugins, I realized that the lightbox wasn’t working on some of my posts. I also decided that I wanted to have the ability to use a modal lightbox for iFrame content. Now I have moved to Pirobox (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pirobox-extended-for-wp-v10/) from the jQuery lightbox plugin. I liked the flexibility and simplicity of Pirobox. It automatically detects images in posts and adds class=”pirobox_gall”. Additionally, I can add manually add it, in addition to attributes like rel=”iframe-650-450″ to a <a> tag for iFrames. Overall, I am please with how easy it was to add and how the finished product looks.
