I would like to disable lightbox so that I can use an image as a link. Instead of clicking on the image to go to a different page or file, it pops up lightbox. How can I disable the lightbox feature and let the image work as a visual link instead?

Hi Jules,

did you try to disable this in the default blog settings of striking?

Best regards,

I did. I had graphics that were links -- click on the graphic, go to the page it linked to. Not all were in blogs -- most were on pages. Now, clicking on the graphic goes nowhere, but opens up an empty lightbox. Is there something to add to the <img src> tags?

Hi julesvern97 ,

There should be a class you can assign to the link or image, i can't remember which one. "no-lightbox" that should fix it i believe.

did anyone happen to figure this out? just ran into this problem trying to add a link to a facebook page using the 16px facebook icon.

EDIT: nevermind, paulieb81's fix works. add class="no-lightbox" into your

tag

Closing this thread as the image shortcode includes both disabling the lightbox, and link, and link target attributes, so any user inserting an image using the shortcode simply has to toggle lightbox off, and add the link (ie the url destination) and the link target (open up a new page, open in same page, etc) to obtain the effect both users above were requesting.
