Adding Lightbox to portfolio page instead of project

Site URL: https://buffalo-azalea-5mzy.squarespace.com

Hi everyone!

I am currently a bit stuck trying to create some sort of portfolio page. I am using the portfolio template "Portfolio 1" in a grid shape, in Squarespace 7.1.

My goal is to have the same look and title on hover effect as is standard, but instead of refering to another page (a project page for instance) I would like it to open a lightbox when clicked. This lightbox may contain 2/3 images and a short description.

I also thought about another workaround, using a gallery section but adding the "title on hover" effect. However, the lightbox then would need to have some "Hidden" images that only show in Lightbox mode. Preferably the lightbox needs to be closed to view the next project.

So far I haven't succeeded trying to find the code and using it. I am fairly new to this!

Does anyone know how to do this? I would be super grateful!

Me too!

@Logotha @KimS You mean like this? (Clicking on image) https://turquoise-asparagus-ylha.squarespace.com/portfolio01?password=abc

Me too, like this! How can I do it?

@tuanphan Do you have a code for this?

Use Anything Lightbox Plugin.

Hi @tuanphan,

I've added the Anything Lightbox Plugin to my site -- how do I bypass the portfolio page links so they open a video lightbox instead of a portfolio project page?

I guess we can use JS to change some project links. However you can contact Plugin Author first, if they can't help, let me know, I will check carefully

@tuanphan Not sure if it's a question for the plugin author -- is there an easy fix so project links on a portfolio page can open a #lightbox- url instead of going to a project subpage?

Let me know if that makes sense. Thank you

Hi @tuanphan, any update if it is possible to do this with JS?

Try contacting Plugin Author first.
