How to Customize Blogger's Lightbox 10 comments For those of you who have chosen to use the Blogger's Lightbox View for displaying pictures when clicking on them, you have the option to change its style in a whole different way. You will be able to change the black color of the screen, the border or shadow of the images and the color of the thumbnails background. We can customize the Blogger Lightbox entirely on our taste. Demo Take a look at the screenshots below: Before: After: After adding our CSS code, the entire look of the modal window will be changed: the background color, the bar showing the thumbnails, the border of images, the text within it, transparency and the close button. All we have to do is to overwrite the default styles and change them with ours. How to Change the Blogger's Lightbox Background and Style Step 1.Go to Template, click on the Edit HTML button (also click on the Proceed button if needed) Step 2.Click anywhere inside the code area and search using CTRL + F the following tag: Step 3.Just above thetag, add the following code: Note: - The text in green explains to which part the code belongs to and it doesn't need to be modified For example, the portion below/ * Background Color * /can change the background color or even the LightBox background color with an image - for this, change this line by replacing the red text with the url address of your image: background-image: url(image-url) !important;- Below is the opacity: if you add a lower value (0.8) the background will become more transparent. - To change the icon for the close button, you have to replace the text in red from/* Close Button */with the URL of your image. (you can host image at tinypic or upload it into a blogger draft and then Copy the Link Location - read this tutorialfor more info) - To change the text color of images, replace the#555555value from/* Index Info (number of images) */ - We can also change the look of the border around our pictures like we can make them more round, add a shadow, etc... but remember this is CSS3 and older versions of Internet Explorer will not show any changes.

I was very happy with my beautiful new lightbox for a while. But for a few weeks now it doesn't work. On click, the image opens at its webadress. I tried in Google chrome, IE and M. Firefox. The lightbox doesn't work anymore. Could You help? I really want it back. My blog is: http://comoridelicioas e.blogspot.ro/ Thank You very much. Reply Replies Admin 3/31/2013 Hi Rita, You should wait until the page has finished loading because the browser tries to read the style meanwhile. Please re-check it again, it works fine from here.

Reply Oemar 12/27/2013 nice share, i'will try, and i have see the demo on your blog right ? Can you add button share or another link when lightbox active ? btw great thanks post this post :) Reply Robert 2/12/2014 Hi, I'm trying insert caption(s) in my lightbox; Any suggestions? Reply Anonymous 3/02/2014 Many thanks for this nice and useful information. Is there any way to scale-up images ? I mean, if image is larger than screen resolution, lightbox scales down to fit it to the browser. But if image is small, LightBox doesn't scale it up to the maximum size to touch browser window boundaries. How can we do this? (I tried putting width:100%; height:100%; but no luck) Reply Add comment Comment as: Sign out Notify mePublishPreview Privacy Policy| Disclaimer| Terms of Service| Sitemap Back to Top DMCA PROTECTED Search Search Follow on Facebook Helplogger Like 2,784 people like Helplogger .
