Yview Thumbnails, Image Lightbox, and Youtube Player
Yview generates optimal thumbnails for images and blogs, and adds a fast, small, responsive, lightbox image viewer and Youtube player, with full-featured image metadata.
- Create optimal, progressive JPEG thumbnails that pass Google PageSpeed and Yslow compression tests (if Imagick is available on the server, or uses GD2 if not).
- Enable thumbnails separately, and of different sizes, on articles, and blog pages and front page.
- Integrate a custom responsive lightbox. The script is <4KB (<1KB compressed) and does not require or interfere with any other JavaScript libraries.The lightbox includes a custom hover cursor, semitransparent backdrop, loading animation, full image zoom animation on load, caption, and responsive layout that adjusts size if the image is larger than the viewport. The javascript code and images are stored in the media directory, as per Joomla 3.4's recommendations for best Google search results.
- Add HTML5 tags and attributes that pass all W3C tests, if desired. .
- Optionally add image microdata, page thumbnail, and OpenGraph metadata that is accepted by Google search, Bing search, Google+, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter (separately for image and blog pages, so it can be configured to work with any other metagenerators you have).
- Optionally remove the P tags put around IMG tags by Joomla's WYSIWIG editors.
- Includes an enhanced version of Yofiel's Ytube player.
