Closing lightbox image with click on the image instead of the 'x' button

Hi,

is it possible to close the lightbox image with a click on the image instead of the 'x' button?

kind regards

Hi,

sorry but there is no possibility to do that. You would have to either click the X or outside the image field.

thanks

I edited \wp-content\themes\betheme\js\scripts.js and in every call to init magnificPopup I added the option closeOnContentClick : true - and that allows to close lightbox images with a click on the image.

$( 'a[rel^="lightbox"][data-type="image"]' ).magnificPopup({
	autoFocusLast	: attr.autoFocusLast,
	removalDelay	: attr.removalDelay,
	closeOnContentClick : true,
	type			: 'image',
	image			: attr.image	
});
