Open several images in RL via one text link

That’s pretty simple.

Just add rel=”lightbox[gallery-1]” to all the image links and it will be treated as one gallery.

If you want another gallery on page just give the other set rel=”lightbox[gallery-2]” attribute, and so on.

Thanks thats simple. Overall it’s working fine but I still have one problem though. I have a bunch of text links to images (same gallery) in a sidebar text widget. Like this:
<a href="LinkToImage.jpg" rel="lightbox[gallery-2]">

Now I need to add one more link to the actual page (not in the sidebar). It has the same rel="lightbox[gallery-2] in the link as the other. But when I click that one it’s the only image to show up in the lightbox. Cant swipe to the other ones.

Now the weird thing is, if i don’t link to a image but link to # instead, like this:
<a href="#" rel="lightbox[gallery-2]">

then the first image won’t show (naturally because it’s not an image) BUT I can swipe to all the other images in that gallery: rel="lightbox[gallery-2]

This is driving me a but nuts.. any ideas why that might be?

Is your page/images Ajax loaded? Or is there any Lazy Load applied to these images?

Just guessing.

If there’s an Ajax involved you may try to enable Custom events in RL settings (and leave it’s default).

The only ajax I know of is that the comment section is ajax loaded, I deactivated that plugin but problem remain.
The Custom events has been enabled (ajaxComplete) all along and still is.

Weird… any second guesses? It’s so strange that it works fine with # but not with any actual image link.

Sorry, tried to help.

I’d had to look deeper into your site / theme / plugins code.

No worries, maybe I can figure it out on my own.
In that case I can write about it here. Thanks.

Hi,

I just want to be able to put several galleries in the same page, and tried to add rel=”lightbox[gallery-1]” rel=”lightbox[gallery-2]”,
but it doesn’t work.

when the last picture of gallery 1 is shown, the lightbox should stop.
but it doesn’t, and it goes on with the first picture of gallery 2.

could you help me?

@sek34, this should be working.

Can you post a link to your site?

can i send you the link in private message?

You can use our dedicated support forum, post a topic and use private reply option.

can’t post any topic on the forum……

so i post the link of my site here :

thanks

Why?

There are no separate galleries on this page.

Each has rel=”lightbox[gallery-crvp]” attribute so you have only one gallery.

i thought i was ok with the script…

what kind of script could i use to make different galleries?

You should do exactly what you posted above.

The lightbox attrribute seems in these images seems to be applied automatically – you have to do that manually, deponds on the way you populate a gallery.
