Is it possible to insert a thumbnail of a flickr set and display the entire set in the lightbox? Now it shows only the first picture.

Hi,

In order for lightbox to show the other images in the set, they first need to be available on the current page. You can then hide the other images using CSS. See the "Grouping images" section of http://drupal.org/node/144488 In particular the bit about the lightbox_hide_image class. Presently this is only available in dev versions, but an official release will be made in next week or two.

See comment #3 of #232104: How to navigate image_fields, where a similar request was asked in relation to views and imagefields.

Cheers,
Stella

Ah okay. I was hoping for a way to make a BUEditor button that would insert, for instance, [flickr-photoset:id=72157594262419167,size=m] and that would display all the images in the set in a lightbox.. *sigh* drupal and usability.. ^^

Perhaps you should contact the flickr module maintainers to see if (a) they have a way of adding all images in a photoset to a page and (b) a way of assigning images in that photoset a class name - then you could hide them with css. However, it may not be a good idea to load all the images in a photoset as there could be a large number of them, and might affect performance.

Cheers,
Stella
