    Hi,
    How would I go about creating a slide show with captions that would pop up from a link assigned to an icon element? I have researched the heck out of this. I know how to link within the element itself however, what I can not figure out is where do I put these pictures and captions and then make it into a popup box when I click on the Icon.

    Hi lflask!

    Within the theme the only thing that would be able to support anything close to that would be the prettyPhoto lightbox script but the whole slideshow with captions would need to be custom coded.

    As an example, the theme pulls together the photos in galleries into a lightbox like on this page when you click on an image: http://kriesi.at/themes/enfold/shortcodes/gallery/

    But you would need to build the code for the link custom into a code element using the demos here: http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/

    The non-code route would be to find a plugin that does what you are looking for instead which there is most likely one that fits your needs out there somewhere.

    Regards,
    Devin

    Thank you very much. I’m glad to know that it wasn’t something super simple I was overlooking.
