Gallery Captions HOVER Squarespace 7.1 Please help!

Hi Pandagal

Your site is not accessible

@Pandagal Is this the effect you're after? If so this could should get you started

 

/* Add this code to Design -> Custom CSS */

.gallery-caption {
    position: absolute !important;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
    width: 102%;
    text-align:center;
    opacity: 0;
    transition: all .3s ease;
    background-color: white;
    height: 100%;
}

.gallery-masonry-item:hover .gallery-caption {
    opacity: 1;
    transition: all .3s ease;
}

.gallery-caption-wrapper {
    display: flex;
    place-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
}

This is brilliant! Thank you so much. Is it possible to make the white in the picture opaque? Slightly see through? If that makes sense! Thanks again.

Did you ever find an answer for this? I'm having the same problem.

@RyanDejaegher
 

Are you able to provide the CSS for Gallery Grid: Simple rather than masonary?

Many thanks!

Hey @kristenblowfield apologies for the delay in response. Do you have a link to your site that you can share?

Hi @RyanDejaegher

Is it possible to maintain the lightbox on click? with either Gallery: Masonry or Gallery Grid: Simple?

Many thanks

To keep lightbox on click, add this to Gallery Page Settings > Advanced > Header

<style>
  .gallery-caption {
    pointer-events: none;
}
</style>

Can I do custom CSS with a personal plan or do I need a business plan?

I want the use the effect @Pandagal demonstrates above

Thank you

How do you change the size and font type of the captions when hover over?

I am trying for this effect on my site here https://laurawhiteuhlir.com/design. I tried using the code you suggested, but no luck. Any insight?

Thanks!

I guess you need to add image caption first, then we can tweak the above code

(above for SS 7.1, your site is 7.0)

Thanks!

Hi, this is fantastic. I have one additional question. Is there a way to maintain the 'clickthrough' link for the image in the gallery with this effect? It seems that the 'caption' block appears above the image, and thus prevents someone from clicking on the image itself to clickthrough.

Thanks!

@RyanDejaegher Hi there you seem to know all about gallery captions.

Also new to 7.1. - I want to change the style of gallery reel caption.
I also hate the big gap between the image+caption and the arrows, how to reduce?
Thanks so much,

Tara
