 * Hi, I enabled the lightbox for my gallery and expected to see a slideshow/play
   button, but it’s not there. Images open fine and navigation arrows work, just
   no slideshow control. 
   Is slideshow available only for certain lightbox types
   or gallery layouts? If it requires enabling a specific option, please tell me
   where it is.

 * Thanks for your question. Yes, the slideshow/play button can be enabled in the
   Lightbox Settings for the Fusion Grid gallery.
 * Please open your gallery settings and check the Lightbox Settings section. There
   you can enable:
   * Slideshow timer* Play/Pause button* Lightbox navigation controls
 * Once these options are enabled and the gallery is saved, the slideshow control
   should appear in the lightbox together with the navigation arrows. If you already
   enabled these settings but the button still doesn’t appear, please clear your
   cache and reload the page.
