Need to quickly explain a product or service? A pop-up box is a great way to do that.

Steps to Activate Popup (Lightbox) Functionality:
-
Choose a Layout with Lightbox Functionality
- Start by selecting a layout that supports popups (lightboxes). You can identify layouts with this functionality by looking for the "Learn More" link in the preview thumbnail of the collection items.
- Additionally, check the "Appearance" list for the term "Lightbox." If it appears, the layout supports popup functionality.
-
Verify Layouts Without Popup Functionality
- Some layouts may include a "Learn More" button but do not have popup (lightbox) functionality. If "Lightbox" is not present in the Appearance list, then the popup feature is unavailable for that layout.
-
Remove Any Linked Templates
- To enable the popup, you need to remove any templates linked to the collection item. When a template is applied, the "Learn More" button or link will direct users to a new page.
-
Add a Description to the Collection Item
- Ensure there is a "Description" added to the collection item. The presence of a description activates the popup, and the text will be displayed in the lightbox when users click "Learn More."
-
Confirm the Lightbox Activation
- Once the template is removed and a description is added, the "Learn More" button will trigger a popup, displaying the information in a lightbox instead of redirecting to a new page.
