BP-Gallery Sidebar Widget

NOTE: This plugin works with BP Gallery RC2 and RC3.

I needed a sidebar solution to show links to bp-gallery galleries, so I wrote this widget. This widget selects from galleries of
type “photo”. The widget lets you specify the following parameters

• Maximum Galleries: the number of galleries to show.
• Gallery Order: choose from Random, Earliest, and Latest
• Thumbnail: choose cover, first, or random image to determine which image is used for a thumbail in the sidebar. Cover image is specified in bp-gallery.
• Thumbnail width/height: the HTML attributes width & height.
• Thumbnail padding: used for padding-right and padding-bottom for each thumbnail

Kudos

• Shout out to Brajesh Singh for creating the bp-gallery plugin
• Shout out to Mathias Geat, whose nextgen-gallery-sidebar widget code was a big help while I was writing this plugin.
