Popular Lightbox Setups

Some popular lightbox configurations and how to build them in Webflow.

Featured Photos + View All Button

This UX consists of;

• A limited number of featured item thumbnails

• A button to view all images

• Clicking any of the thumbnails, or the button, invokes the lightbox which shows a much larger number of images

The implementation for this can take many approaches. Here we're going for a CMS-driven gallery where the entire gallery, including the featured items and captions, are sourced from a single multi-image field in the CMS.

Here we'll walk through the basics of the design approach, and how you can build this on your site.
