Swipe gallery

Hey,
Thanks for the request! I’ll pass this onto the developer.
Cheers!

Magnific Lightbox was developed to allow for zooming in with touch gestures and that is why there is no swipe. (not developed my me).
I may add options for other lightbox libraries in the future, photoswipe for example handles swiping well.

Hey, to piggyback on this, I’m finding some minor incompatibility with the plugin I use to give me photoswipe capabilities. I think the swipe is essential for mobile users, so I run the “Lightbox with PhotoSwipe” plugin, and it generally plays well with the Kadence Blocks Advanced Gallery — I just have to keep the Kadence lightbox turned off or else I get two layers of lightboxes. But here’s the problem — you’ve improved your lightbox ability to show captions in the lightbox, which would be great, but it doesn’t tell my photoswipe plugin to include the captions. I can’t just turn of the photoswipe plugin because then your lightbox doesn’t have a swipe function. Can you enable swiping in your lightbox? Maybe you have it in your paid gallery plugin, but I’m talking about the basic Kadence Blocks plugin, which has been awesome so far.

Hey,
Having captions show in your lightbox is something your lightbox plugin would need to add. It’s not something I can add on my end for your lightbox plugin. So you might try reaching out to your plugin author for the lightbox plugin you use.

I do have it on my list to add another lightbox libraries then Magnific in the future but I have other things I’m developing then are currently in front of that in priority at the moment so I don’t yet have a timeframe for it.

All the best!

Thanks for the quick reply, Ben. I appreciate what you’ve developed — it’s an amazing set of tools. I’ll hope to see other lightboxes added in the future ?? And yeah, I did reach out to the other plugin creator, too.
