    Dear SEA author,
    Thank you for your great job. I’m currently using your WordPress theme and I really enjoy it.
    I have a question regarding the lightbox behavior :

    At the moment, when a click is done on an image, the lightbox displays all the images from the current page.
    What I would like instead is for each image to act as a visual preview of a specific series/project, and when clicked, the lightbox would display only the images belonging to that particular project, even if not all of them are shown on the page.

    In other words, I’d like the visible images on the page to work like a visual menu, and the lightbox to cycle through only the images related to the selected project — not all images on the page.

    Is this something that is already supported by the theme or configurable? If not, is there a workaround or a compatible plugin you would recommend, or code?

    Hi there,

    Welcome to SeaTheme forum.
    Please edit the page, check if the “Lihgbox” option(under settings tab) is disabled.
    Normally, if you enable Lightbox in a module of the BM Content builder, the images can only be navigated(Next/Pre) in the same module.
    You can make the same project images in one moudle like Grid module.

    Hi!
    Thank you for your answer.
    I think I may not have explained it very clearly, so here’s a bit more detail:

    On my portfolio overview page, I display only one or a few images per project, using separate modules for each project (for example, a Grid module per series).
    What I would like is that when a user clicks on one of these images, the lightbox opens and displays all the images belonging to that specific project, not just the ones visible in that module or on that page.

    I don’t want the lightbox to show all images from the same page/module, I would like to show a larger gallery of images, corresponding to the full project/series that image belongs to, even if most of those images are not on the page.

    Is there a way to link a lightbox thumbnail to a full hidden gallery or project set? Or a recommended approach (custom post, shortcode, plugin, etc.) to achieve this behavior?

    Hi,
    Sorry, it’s impossible to display images outside the current page in the lightbox. Nor can it be achieved through simple code customization.
