Lightbox

rm

Hi Armin,
Hope you are well.
I'm curious to see if there is any development with a lightbox plugin, like the one for LayTheme? This would be really great.
Or are there other lightbox plugins similar to yours you can recommend that would work with gridder?

Many thanks!

Hey rm!
Sorry for the late reply.

Oh there are no plans for that yet!
Personally I like this lightbox

Thanks for the lightbox suggestion Armin. I'm wondering how I can create a filter to output the images that will have a class or whatever is needed to open the lightbox? Also, to use the layload filter you have on the documentation, will it need to run as a separate filter to the lighbox one or can it be together? Thanks so much!

Hey!

Not sure if the lightbox plugin is compatible with lazyloading. I think it isn't.

function lightbox_image_element($img, $element, $obj){
$attid = $element->attid;
$full_src = wp_get_attachment_url( $attid );
return '<a class="image-link" href="'.$full_src.'">'.$img.'</a>';
}
add_filter( 'lg_frontend_img', 'lightbox_image_element', 10, 3 );

Then in your javascript:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.image-link').magnificPopup({type:'image'});
});

Of course you need to include all files of Magnific Popup as described here:
