Thread: Image navigation in LightBox / Gallery

Hi there,

Firstly, congratulations and thanks on the incredibly easy to use and powerful software, and the superlative support videos and tutorials. It was far easier and quicker to create my first-ever website using BV than I could ever have imagined.

I'm putting some photo galleries into my site, and while I like the LightBox application, I would really like to have "Next Image>" and "<Previous Image" navigation available, rather than having to return to the gallery page each time. Is there an easy way to do this?

cheers

It's already on the light box. Just roll your mouse over the right side of the image and the "next" link will appear and roll your mouse over the left side of the image and the "previous" link will appear.

Oh wow - that's cool! I've been using it for a couple of weeks now, and I hadn't noticed that feature. In a way, I wish it was more obvious (prev and next buttons always visible below the image) as I've asked a few of my website users and not a single one of them had noticed the feature either - they had all been closing each image and opening the next one individually. But it's great to know it's there.

Thanks again.

Just put a note below the image that they can do that :)

I thought the same thing, just follow what Bethers said and you should be fine!

Hi, little bit more work? But the 2 below are freebies will work a lot faster if you are planning more than just one or 2 images on a page.

I looked at some of your webpages Bethers, and I saw some shapes that were very rough. Why don't you make them antialias?
