Tainacan Extra View Modes Plugin

A view modes plugin for Tainacan, which registers a list of 8 extra view modes that may be used to display your items list.

Tainacan is an open-source, powerful and flexible digital repository platform for WordPress.

This plugin expands the Tainacan plugin functionality by adding support to 8 extra view modes besides the default ones (Masonry, Cards, Records, Table and List). The view modes display your items list giving different style to each item:

Gallery

A masonry view mode that displays two metadata and opens a slider lightbox.

Mosaic

A simple and marginless mosaic of item thumbnails.

Frame

A centered aligned, framed thumbnails view, like gallery expositions.

Exhibition

A framed record view, where image and metadata are expanded on hover.

Albums

Thumbnails displayed as album covers with a disk inside.

Document

Records with stacked papers style, for displaying published research.

Books

A book cover view, made for library visualizations.

Polaroid

A framed picture view, similar to polaroid photographs.
