    I am trying to simply link a few pictures on my page to a lightbox image gallery. I have figured out how to use the ImageBrowser to do basically what I want, but I don’t want a border, “Picture 1 of 4”, title, or <arrows> around my picture on the page (I don’t care about the lightbox gallery that comes up). Any ideas?

    Thanks

    @jcamac – By removing the navigation arrows you will essentially be eliminating the functionality of the ImageBrowser display. Perhaps you would prefer to use the Basic Slideshow?

    Otherwise, a combination of a custom template for the ImageBrowser and some custom CSS should get you to where you want.

    Thanks!

    Thank you for responding. I have tried the slideshow and it is not really what I am looking for. Here is my URL: http://hangingbquarterhorses.com/?page_id=15

    I really want the lightbox photo gallery to pop up when the image posted on the page is selected. It is not a priority to make sure the image browser on the page will allow a user to scroll, just that the lightbox gallery will allow them to go through the gallery.

    Thanks in advance.

    @jcamac – You might look at a different option of inserting a gallery that just displays a single thumbnail (this may require generating thumbnails of a similar size to what you are currently displaying).

    Give this shortcode a try:
    [ngg_images gallery_ids=1 display_type=photocrati-nextgen_basic_thumbnails disable_pagination=1 images_per_page=1 show_all_in_lightbox=1]

    You can add width and height parameters but you might get pixelation depending on the quality and default size of your current thumbnails. It should produce a better image if you specifically re-size the thumbnails of the gallery you are displaying to a larger size.

    – Cais.
