[DEPRECATED] CMB Field Type: Gallery

IMPORTANT - this project is no longer supported

CMB2's file_list provides similar functionality and is probably the way to go.

I've written a quick tool to convert existing data from the pw_gallery to file_list format.

Description

Gallery field type for CMB2.

Running an older version of CMB? Check the previous releases.

Installation

You can install this field type as you would a WordPress plugin:

1. Download the plugin
2. Place the plugin folder in your /wp-content/plugins/ directory
3. Activate the plugin in the Plugin dashboard

Alternatively, you can place the plugin folder in with your theme/plugin. After you call CMB:

require_once 'init.php';

Add another line to include the cmb-field-gallery.php file. Something like:

require_once 'cmb-field-gallery/cmb-field-gallery.php';

Usage

pw_gallery - Save a list of attachment IDs. Example:

array(
    'name' => 'Gallery Images',
    'desc' => 'Upload and manage gallery images',
    'button' => 'Manage gallery', // Optionally set button label
    'id'   => $prefix . 'gallery_images',
    'type' => 'pw_gallery',
    'sanitization_cb' => 'pw_gallery_field_sanitise',
),

Screenshots

To-do

• Add a clear gallery button
• Thumbnail previews

Example front-end output

<?php $gallery_images = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_cmb_gallery_images', true ); ?>
<?php if ( ! empty( $gallery_images ) ) : ?>
    <ul>
        <?php foreach ( $gallery_images as $gallery_image ) : ?>
            <li><?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $gallery_image, 'thumbnail' ); ?></li>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
    </ul>
<?php endif; ?>
