A/V lightboxes

CMS-driven A/V Lightboxes, where A and V can be specifically ordered.

Problems;

  • CMS does not have a gallery capability for videos

  • Videos must be / should be pre-loaded

  • YouTube related videos problem

Solutions;

Use WF designer to setup and create your lightboxes, then we unwire it and use a separate lightbox provider to solve for the missing functionality;

  • Better combination of video & image content

  • Captions on video & images

  • CMS groups

  • Wraparound, etc.
