Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 8:28 am

When you add an image block in Squarespace, you have the option to turn on the lightbox feature. This allows visitors to your site to view a larger version of your image by clicking on it. Lightboxes are a great way to showcase your photos and make them more interactive for your visitors.

To add a lightbox to your gallery, first add an image block to your page. Then, click on the image in the image block and select ‘Enable Lightbox’ from the drop-down menu.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that adding a lightbox to your gallery in Squarespace may result in your site loading more slowly.

Your image will now appear in a lightbox when clicked on. You can also add captions to your images by selecting ‘Edit Captions’ from the drop-down menu.

Lightboxes are a great way to make your images more interactive and engaging for your visitors. With just a few clicks, you can add this useful feature to your Squarespace site.
