This plugin transforms the Gutenberg gallery block into a lightbox with previous/next navigation. It was built to offer those who wish to present a series of images in lightbox/slider format with a simple, lightweight solution.
Installation
- Install the plugin through the Install Plugins interface or by uploading the
ggbl-lightboxfolder to your/wp-content/plugins/directory. - Activate the plugin.
- Make sure you select 「Media File」 in the Link To dropdown menu for your galleries
Why did you make this plugin?
I haven』t found a lightbox that is optimized for Gutenberg galleries. Many generate their own gallery formats or contain unneccesary options. I wanted to build one that was as minimal as possible, while offering a functional and elegant experience.
