Hi Chazz,

Yes, it’s possible to create a gallery pop-up (lightbox effect) in the Crio SuperTheme and BoldGrid Post and Page Builder without navigating to another page. This allows visitors to click a link or image, and a gallery will pop up in a modal window. Here’s how you can achieve this using a lightbox plugin:

Using a lightbox plugin is the easiest way to create a pop-up gallery. The plugin will allow you to group images and videos into a gallery that opens in a modal pop-up.

1. Install a Lightbox Plugin

• Go to Dashboard → Plugins → Add New.
• Search for a lightbox plugin like Responsive Lightbox & Gallery or Simple Lightbox.
• Click Install and Activate the plugin.

2. Create a Gallery

• Go to Dashboard → Media → Add New Gallery (or Lightbox if using the Simple Lightbox plugin).
• Upload the images you want to showcase and create a new gallery.

3. Insert a Link that Triggers the Lightbox

• Use the BoldGrid Post and Page Builder to edit your page.
• Add a Text Link or Button Block where you want users to click to open the gallery.
• Link the button to the gallery URL or media URL of one of the images.
• • If you’re using Responsive Lightbox & Gallery, add the gallery shortcode like:
    [rl_gallery id="123"]


    Replace 123 with your gallery ID.

4. Enable Lightbox for Links

• Make sure the lightbox plugin is enabled for all image links. This setting is usually found in Settings → Lightbox.
• When clicked, the link will now trigger a lightbox pop-up displaying your gallery!

I really hope this helps!  Let us know if there’s anything else that we can answer for you.
