Topic: Non Gallery Lightbox Help!

Hi guys!

I am working on a site using SimpleCMS. Everything has gone great outside of a non gallery lightbox I am attempting to make editable for my client. Please take a look at http://classtailors.com/site/before-after.php to see the examples that I have put up. 

I would like for the user to be able to replace the image + lightbox popup without having the option to add more images. Is this possible?

Thank you for the help,

Hi Guys, is this type of function not possible at all?

Re: Non Gallery Lightbox Help!

Hi Brock, this currently isn't possible. The gallery feature is there to allow users to add and remove images as they please.

Out of curiosity, why would you want to prevent users from adding images to their gallery?

Re: Non Gallery Lightbox Help!

It not that I want a gallery at all.

For instance, if a client has a product that they would like to feature, the layout may go something like.

Picture (floated left)    Title   | Description under the title

Several clients would like the ability to add a pop up image to that picture that would allow for a larger display. This is a case wherein a client would perhaps not want to add a full gallery worth of images, but would find it advantageous to simply add one single image with a linked popup.

Good point - that makes perfect sense. We'll get this sorted for you over the next few days and drop you an email (and post here) once it's live.

We've just updated the system so you can edit the image without the options of adding/removing images, simply add "single-gallery" class to the DIV, e.g.

<div id="gallery" class="edit-gallery single-gallery clearfix">
    <a href="large-image.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="Optional Title">
        <img src="thumb-image.jpg" alt="Alt Text" width="200" height="150" />
    </a>
</div>
