I Wrote a WordPress Plugin
A while back I took Amy’s code for creating popup images and turned it into a little WordPress plugin. I’ve been cleaning up the code and making a more robust UI, and now I have released the Simple Popup Images plugin into the wild. Those of you with WordPress blogs and a need for popup photos and whatnot, enjoy.

Hi!
This plugin is hands down my favorite plug in for wordpress.
Unfortunately, when I updated to wordpress 2.1, it stopped working.
You can still click on the thumbnail, it will still open a new window the appropriate size, but it can’t find the picture (even though the pic is still on the server and you can access it).
You can see what I mean here:

Also, it looks like there’s no longer a popup image button when writing a post.
Is there any chance for an update?
Thanks!

I’m planning on updating the plugin for WP 2.1, but I haven’t installed WP 2.1 yet. The missing popup image button is a known bug that I need to fix for 2.1. It looks like your first error is happening because the popup.php script has moved somewhere else. Looking at the HTML source for http://www.alienredrum.com/blog/?p=345, I see that the script should be at http://www.alienredrum.com/blog/popup.php but if I try opening that page by itself I get a “page not found” error. Is your popup.php script really in that location, and if so, is its permissions set to be world-readable?
