## Description

#### NextGEN Gallery ColorBoxer

NextGEN Gallery ColorBoxer automatically integrates the cool ColorBox lightbox effect
with your NextGEN galleries, and only loads ColorBox’s scripts and styles when a
gallery shortcode is present, improving your site’s page load speed.

Note: For optimization of NextGEN Gallery’s scripts and styles, please see [NextGEN Gallery Optimizer](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery-optimizer/)

#### Key features:

 2. Only loads ColorBox’s scripts and styles when a gallery shortcode is present.

the bat, including:

 1. ColorBox not working in IE6
 2. Conflicts with the jQuery $ selector in ColorBox’s invocation code

#### Requirements:

 1. WordPress version 3.1 or later
 2. NextGEN Gallery version 1.6.2 or later

## FAQ

  Is this plugin compatible with minification/caching tools?

Yes. However the small, already minified ColorBox script must be excluded from combining/
minification or it won’t function. This is true of any lightbox script.

For WP Minify, simply add /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery-colorboxer/colorbox/
js/jquery.colorbox-min.js in its js file exclusion options and clear the cache.

For W3 Total Cache, do nothing. It doesn’t auto-discover, so as long as you don’t
manually add the script, it won’t be included.

  What version of NextGEN Gallery is this plugin compatible with?

Any version since 1.6.2
