mAutoPopup for WordPress is a plugin that allows you to display full scale images directly just by inserting their related thumbnails into your posts or pages. As of its 2.x releases, WordPress enables users to display full scale images by inserting a link to the related file or to the dynamically generated page. mAutoPopup gets further by enabling you to display thoses images on the same page in a “popup” layer.

Version 0.4.3 is available for immediate download !

Note : mAutoPopup 0.4.1 and previous releases are not fully functionnal with WordPress 2.5
