Smarter Cleaner Gallery

Jan 13, 2010 WordPress 8 comments

Justin Tadlock’s Cleaner Gallery plugin fixes the semantics of the WordPress built-in gallery feature by placing all of the gallery related CSS in an external file instead of the inline CSS produced by WordPress core.

However, the problem is that this CSS file is loaded on every page request. Therefore, until WordPress supports combining all CSS files into one, here is a quick way to hide this CSS file on all pages that don’t contain a gallery (line 128 of cleaner-gallery.php):

Note: this will add cleaner-gallery.css only on single post and page views (not indexes or archives).

add_action('wp_head', 'cleaner_gallery_head', 0);
function cleaner_gallery_head() {
	global $post;
	if (strstr($post->post_content, '[gallery'))
		wp_enqueue_style( 'cleaner-gallery', CLEANER_GALLERY_URL . '/cleaner-gallery.css', false, 0.7, 'all' );
}

Hopefully, Justin can incorporate this into the next release of this handy plugin.

Web Infinity

Web has that enormous feeling of infinity — every word and though never lost or erased once it’s up there on the web. Incredible, isn’t it, that feeling of never loosing something you hold dear.
