Lightbox for an image portfolio

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://native-demo.squarespace.com/images-native/

Hi all,

I created a page with multiple image blocks that works as an artist portfolio. I would like those images to be able to be displayed in a lightbox. My problem is that I am able to set up the lightbox for each individual image but I would like ALL of the images to be able to be displayed in just ONE lightbox. Here's an example:

Another example here:

I'm on the 7.0 Squarespace version. The page was created by selecting "new page," then I chose the "Images Layout/Vertical Masonry."

Does anybody know how to set up an image gallery with a single lightbox like in the sample website above?

Much appreciated

You can use a Gallery to do this instead of individual Image Blocks. This is how the Native sites you linked are configured.
