So this looks really good, and I need something like this:
but it doesn’t seem to work for me.
Following your instructions ,what I get is the image, twice,
vertically. Nothing more.
Any ideas what might be wrong?

Hi Ryan

Yes I completely agree with you that it is potentially dangerous to allow external images. but you know situation can demand that. i think it is safe to use when edit right is protected to a particular group and hence chance of misuse can be reduced. many many thanks for your suggestion and time to look at my changes. I really appreciate that.

regards

I’ve worked your changes into my code.

If you set:

$wgSmoothGalleryAllowExternal = true;

in LocalSettings.php, the plugin will allow you to use http:// and https:// external images.

It is important to realize that it could be potentially dangerous to allow external images though. I’ve set the default for that option to be false for this reason.

I’ll take a look at your changes and see if I can work them into my plugin. Having the ability to use external images would be nice. I can make an option for admins to enable/disable it.

Btw, your changes are based upon the current stable version of the SmoothGallery plugin. The current (beta) version has most of the SmoothGallery 2.0 options available.
