Gallery in Silverlight for Wordpress
In a joint production of Regart.net and Microsoft, I participated with Boris Forconi, in developing a plugin for wordpress. The idea was to create a Silverlight gallery in wordpress using the API but by developing the gallery itself in Silverlight. It is partially based on the one made by Tim Heuer. Boris has occupied any part of PHP and Wordpress integration. For my part, I developed the Silverlight gallery. The goal is to provide a simple way to put pictures online nicely for Wordpress blogs as shown below:
Just write a tag like : [sl-gallery: ...]
You can set parameters as shown in the example below :
- width=400
- height=400
- leftArrow=true
//show/hide left arrow - rightArrow=true
//show/hide right arrow - pageNumbers=true
//affiche ou cache la pagination - thumbnails=true
//show/hide thumbnails - fill=uniform
/ / used to indicate a way of filling you can choose between:
/ / Uniform (homothetic part by filling ability)
/ / UniformToFill (filling with homothety)
/ / Fill (filling with deformation dimensions)
/ / None (preserves the original dimensions) - bgcolor
//set the background color - bgmode
// set the background mode(windowless)
The first good news is that it is possible to use a menu to set it all in 2 seconds. It adds to the administration of sections Wordpress. A small window appears when you click the button (see below).
The second good news is that we will quickly sources available on wordpress.com. This way you can completely change the visual side of the gallery Silverlight. In all cases, it dynamically retrieves images from the gallery Wordpress. You can download a first version here.

Deja qu’il y avais un plugin pour mettre de la vidéo SL sur Wordpress, mais si en plus il y à de quoi diffuser de petit diaporama, je n’ai plus d’excuse pour ne pas blogger ! :p
Bravo à tous, c’est une très bonne idée de l’avoir faite ^_^.
