  • WordPress and Piwigo? Yes please!

    So I just discovered the PiwigoPress plugin for WordPress.
    While it’s obsolete and the widget no longer works, the “short code” feature still does. Unfortunately it’s not very well documented, but it is possible to add pictures to an article which link back to not only the picture, but also the album which that picture is part of.
    Yayy.

    Trawling through the source code, it seems the following is possible:

    [PiwigoPress id=<pic> lnktype=albumpicture url='http://gallery.lemmurg.com/']
    idPiwigo picture id(s)eg.
    id=1 – picture id 1
    id=1-5 – all pictures with ids 1 through 5
    id=1,3,4 – pictures with ids 1, 3, and 4
    lnktypepicture (default, link to picture only)
    album (?)
    albumpicture (link to picture with album)
    eg lnktype=albumpicture
