a post

I’m just an ordinary post and here’s a gallery:

this gallery was created using RGG Pro. And it seems to work fine.

Version 1.3.2

Okay. It’s been a long time. Sorry for that. But I needed to do some work that actually makes money cause I was getting pretty poor. Now that that’s done I can spend some time on this plugin again. I figured out what was causing the plugin to not work in IE8 (used an unsupported javascript function) and I also figured out what was causing the errors in 1.3.1 (Forgot to take out some debugging code.)

So in short: there are no new features since version 1.3.1. Only bug fixes. But since almost nobody could use version 1.3.1 Here’s a list of those features again:

  • Changed character encoding for captions, to include special characters. With thanks to Niko.
  • The last row of the gallery is now always equal to the height of the previous row. This will generate prettier results if you use images with the same dimensions, like logo’s. Thanks to Brett for pushing me a bit on this one.
  • New parameter, orderby. Allows you to order images by title, publish date, or even randomly.
  • More new parameters added: order, id, size, include, exclude.
  • The image_size parameter is deprecated. It will still work, but it’s better to use size instead.

Version 1.3.1

NOTE: Apparently this version causes a lot of errors with other plugins. So I changed the stable version back to 1.3. I haven’t experienced any problems with it myself though, so if you want you can download version 1.3.1 from the SVN repository.

Hello again, it’s been a couple of weeks, so this next update is pretty huge. There are a bunch of new features, and also the internal workings of RGG have changes significantly. Please let me know if anything isn’t working as expected, because I haven’t found the time to test everything yet.

Changes:

  • Changed character encoding for captions, to include special characters. With thanks to Niko.
  • The last row of the gallery is now always equal to the height of the previous row. This will generate prettier results if you use images with the same dimensions, like logo’s. Thanks to Brett for pushing me a bit on this one.

  • The image_size parameter is deprecated. It will still work, but it’s better to use size instead.
  • Some bug fixes

Version 1.3

Pretty important update. I’m finally getting happy about the quality and stability of the grids. There’s still some work to do, but I think the update was important enough to get to a new minor version number. Still, it’s just a number, so don’t expect too much.

Updates include:

  • Fixed so many bugs I can’t remember which ones anymore.
  • Rewritten the entire ordering algorithm, so things are less likely to break when adding borders and padding.

version 1.2.2

I apologize for the double update today. But I had some spare time and there were a couple of things I desperately wanted to fix. Here they are:

* escaped the captions so double quotes can be added in the caption text.
* Added captions parameter to shortcode, so captions can be disabled.
* Some bug fixes

Enjoy!

Version 1.2

There were some problems with the plugin hijacking the native gallery in such a way that other plugins couldn’t fully access the gallery anymore. I fixed this, so now it possible to -for example- let your images point to custom links, thanks to plugins like WP Gallery Custom Links.

Check it!

Major update

Only 5 days after the initial realease of Responsive Gallery Grid I have decided to go out of beta and I’m proud to release RGG 1.1! (I couldn’t use 1.0 because I accidentally released my first beta version as such..)

So what’s new?
