Title/description invisible in the Gallery Block but visible in the lightbox

Recommended Posts

Hi @MonikaBu that should be the default if you've turned on Lightbox. What are you seeing currently? Can you share your website URL so we can have a look?

Wow, thank you very much for the quick response @melody495.
Yeah, I thought so too, but take a look at the images attached. My website isn't public yet, but if the pictures don't help you, I can publish my site.

Ah, this is a gallery section. There is no built-in way to do this in Squarespace unfortunately. 

You'll need code injection to achieve this. This requires the business plan or above. 

There area few threads on the forum regarding this, but have a look at this one

Hi there,

I'm having trouble achieving the following:
How can I make the title/description invisible in the Gallery Block but visible again in the lightbox?
Is there a code or plugin available for this?

You are using Gallery Grid sections, and captions are not available for these types of layouts, I have few options for your

- Use Grid Gallery block instead, check Classic Gallery block plugin, it's free available

- Use Lightbox Studio, the plugin display the captions in Gallery section lightbox and has a dedicated settings to turn off the caption on the main Gallery, check the demostration below
