Start slideshow and Close buttons

Hi, the slideshow control button is shown whenever grouping is enabled. Disabling grouping in SLB’s admin settings will hide the slideshow control button.

The close button should be properly-sized on mobile devices as long as your site’s theme is responsive. If the site’s theme is not responsive, then the lightbox’s layout cannot be optimized for mobile devices.

If you can provide a link to a page that exhibits the issue you are experiencing, I would be glad to take a closer look.

Hi,
Thank you for your answer.
My ‘problem’ is that this solution to ungroup the items also disables the option to loop through the items using the < >
I do want to group the items so that people can go through them using the < > in the lightbox (or on their keyboard), I just don’t want to display the button option to start the slideshow.

Thanks for the additional details. I’ll look into providing an option to enable/disable the slideshow functionality in a future update.

In the meantime, you can hide the button via CSS. Creating a separate theme (tutorial here) is recommended when making customizations, but adding the custom CSS to your own theme should also work (though future updates to the theme may use different CSS rules).

See here for a tutorial on customizing SLB’s theme styles.
