Load Widgets In A Lightbox

Use #wk-ID to load widgets like slideshows or galleries in a lightbox. For example: Widgetkit Slideshow

<a data-lightbox="width:945;height:637;" href="#wk-2">Lightbox</a>

How to use

Use the HTML5 custom data attribute data-lightbox to activate the lightbox. You can set various lightbox parameters to the data attribute. For example:

<a data-lightbox="width:1000;height:600;" href="http://www.wikipedia.org">Lightbox</a>

Here is a list of the most common parameters:

  • titlePosition - How should the title show up? (float, outside, inside or over)
  • transitionIn - Set a opening transition. (fade, elastic, or none)
  • transitionOut - Set a closing transition (fade, elastic, or none)
  • overlayShow - Set to true or false
  • scrolling - Set to yes or no
  • width - Set a width in pixel
  • height - Set a height in pixel
  • padding - Set a padding in pixel

Reveal Lightbox

Use the [modal_box] shortcode to show a popup box with overlay. The [modal_box] shortcode can also be linked with these module positions: reveal-a, reveal-b and reveal-c. By using one of these positions as your target, the modal box will show a popup of the modules that have be placed in these positions and assigned to the corresponding menu.

target Description
reveal-a show modal box for modules in reveal-a position
reveal-b show modal box for modules in reveal-b position
reveal-c show modal box for modules in reveal-c position

For each module linked to reveal-a, reveal-b or reveal-c, you can use Module Class Suffix to style it just like a normal module. The target parameter can also be the id of a content section.

Size modifier

To adjust the size (width) of the modal box, add modal-small or modal-large to the Module Class Suffix of the module.

Trigger a modal box from link


reveal-a   reveal-b   reveal-c
markup
[modal_box link target="reveal-a"]reveal-a[/modal_box] 
[modal_box link target="reveal-b"]reveal-b[/modal_box] 
[modal_box link target="reveal-c"]reveal-c[/modal_box]

Toggle modal box from buttons


reveal-a   reveal-b   reveal-c

markup
[modal_box button style="color" target="reveal-a"]reveal-a[/modal_box]
[modal_box button style="color" target="reveal-b"]reveal-b[/modal_box]
[modal_box button style="color" target="reveal-c"]reveal-c[/modal_box]

Toggle modal box for inline content


The [modal_box] shortcode can also be used for inline content by using the following sytnax:

markup
<!-- create a link that will trigger the pop-up modal box -->
[modal_box link target="mycontent"]my link[/modal_box] 

<!-- create the content of the modal box -->
[modal_box content target="mycontent" style="mod-color"]
...
[/modal_box]

The Widgetkit Spotlight allows you to add an overlay to your images which fades or moves in on mouse hover. The overlay can be an image or HTML content. The default magnifier spotlight is a perfect match to be used with a lightbox.

  • Build on the latest jQuery version

Examples

If no custom overlay is set the default spotlight fades in an overlay with an magnifier image. If you define a custom overlay you can choose between different animations - fade, bottom, top, right and left.

How to use

Use the HTML5 custom data attribute data-spotlight to activate the spotlight.

<a data-spotlight="on" href="/mypage.html">
  <img src="/image.jpg" width="180" height="120" alt="" />
</a>

To create a custom overlay use a div element with the CSS class overlay. You can set the effect parameter to the data attribute. For example:

<a data-spotlight="effect:bottom;" href="/mypage.html">
  <img src="/image.jpg" width="180" height="120" alt="" />
  <span class="overlay">Custom Overlay</span>
</a>

You can set the effect parameter to fade, bottom, top, right and left.
