"multiple photos" content block - lightbox settings

cyrax83

Hi,
Where does the multiple photos content block get it's lightbox settings from? There aren't many customisations in the multiple photos lightbox setting, yet in gallery there are a large amount of ligthbox customisations.

I thought that it may inherit from the gallery settings, but it doesn't.

Is there no way to customise both the lightbox in "multiple photos" and the gallery lightbox to be the same?

I'm not sure what you're asking. The lightbox is the page that opens when you click on a single photo. Can you post links to the different pages you are referring to?

If you're looking for lightbox customization you might want to take a look at the customizations shown here - http://www.aaronmphotography.com/Customizations/Lightbox.

The Lightbox that opens from Multiple Photos is a slightly different Lightbox than the one opened from galleries. We've got some improvements to the lightbox coming in the future and we're going to make it easier to customize those settings. If you can hang tight, we'll make it easier and better!

Is there any update about this matter? I'm struggling to get my homepage right...

I have the multiple photos content block on my homepage. I select different photos, from all my galleries one, which i want to link to my gallery. This works great! BUT then the photo opens in a lightbox. Is it possible to open the gallery instead of the photo in a lightbox?

I hope i explained it clearly, and to hear something soon!

You should be able to open it in the gallery, though it'll most likely go directly to the photo and not to the beginning of the gallery. We haven't had a chance to work on these items just yet.
