sumeetgupta Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Site URL: https://artmultiply.com/work Hi, I recently finished my website and was wondering if there's any way to view images on gallery page in full screen mode when mouse hovers over it like lightbox mode? https://artmultiply.com/work I have read this template does not support lightbox. Any alternate methods which may work? Thanks! Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) You have a great looking site. Not many have posted here who use Carson. In my opinion two of the most innovative templates that Squarespace offers are Carson (Temont Family) and Momentum. Neither have lightbox option when using gallery pages. The pages have a lot going on with full page hover opacity, animation, and image movement as opposed to lightbox. I don't think that is a bad trade. My older Avenue site does not have lightbox when using gallery pages either. Lightbox is available for both of us with gallery blocks of course. Light box feature Squarespace.

sumeetgupta Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 Thanks for your reply. Is there any alternate way to view images in full screen mode? These are all computer generated images and any viewer would love to see more details. Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) With that template, not in a gallery page. You can limit the images on the gallery page and make fewer bigger. Edited January 29, 2021 by derricksrandomviews Link to comment
creedon Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Perhaps LIghtbox Anything would work for your needs? I suggest contacting the author to see if will work for you.

sumeetgupta Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) Thanks for the suggestion. I think Lightbox Anything will work in this case. Will check it out!. I have one more issue, for some reason, videos are not showing on the mobile. Previously, they used to load up just fine on mobile. Lately i am only able to see a white screen. Have tried on different mobiles too..Same problem. https://artmultiply.com/ Website is working perfectly on desktop though. Thanks for your help.

derricksrandomviews Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) There is a big issue with video banners and videos on landing pages not working on mobile, that is why there is the opton of a fallback image in some templates and when using 7.0 landing pages.

sumeetgupta Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 This is really frustrating. I bought Vimeo PRO account especially for this feature and only to learn that Squarespace's banner videos are incompatible with mobile devices. Mobile fallback image does not support videos and if i upload .GIF's, they look very low res and choppy on mobile. Plus they are quite big in size compared with videos. Is there any solution?

derricksrandomviews Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) I am looking for one. I do know that Vimeo HD is not compatible with landing pages or page banners. Edited February 1, 2021 by derricksrandomviews Link to comment
sumeetgupta Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 Hi, I have uploaded couple of Vimeo videos on my gallery page. Is it possible to autoplay and loop videos without having to click on "play" button? Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Vimeo - Before copying the embed code, click + Show options. Check Autoplay this video, then copy and paste the code. Don't use a Squarespace custom thumbnail or autoplay is disabled. Link to comment
sumeetgupta Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 I have tried this method too. This works only on a new page. Does gallery page doesn't support it? Link to comment
