Easy SwipeBox

Swipebox is a great mobile-first image viewer. This plugin Just Works™, and it has an excellent admin panel exposing all the Swipebox settings.

If I had one feature requests, it's that I'd like photos to be grouped by post, instead of putting every image on the page into the same group. 

If you are currently using my old WP-jQuery Lightbox, strongly consider replacing it with Easy SwipeBox. It is better maintained, and provide a better experience on mobile devices. 

Thanks Leonardo for putting this together!

Great!

Easily enable the SwipeBox jQuery extension on all media links. Optimized for responsive layouts and touch devices.
