Question

I am using Joomla and Seblod. I would like to create a gallery of thumbnails only, tiled next to one another and when clicked it will open each image into a lightbox (fancybox) and display larger image and description.

Problem I’m having is that when I try to display only the image thumbnails, I get the label “Image” or whatever I enter into Seblod. I just want plain image thumbnails, no text or any description but when clicked it opens them in the lightbox. I’m sure this is child’s play, but confusing for a a beginning Joomla user like myself.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

There is built-in Lightbox functionality in Seblod, but it takes a few steps to make it work. It is even better if you use a custom template, because then you can add regular PHP functions to process your photos.

In any case, to get started, look at the tutorial I wrote on this subject: http://www.seblod.com/support/documentation/seblod-2x/fields/typo/1710-create-a-simple-gallery-with-fieldx-field.html
