Hi Mike, actually I dont want to large image to be as large as possible, just larger than the thumbnails, in a 3/5 layout. Your solution looks great. Thanks! See private details in case you want to try on test page on my site.

RobFebruary 20, 2026 at 3:48 am in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1495252Hi Mike, sorry for the delay in responding. Since this is just a standard Enfold element on a standard wordpress site, I’m not sure why you need access to my site? I am happy to provide it, but there’s nothing special about my Enfold that should impact this, right?
Thanks!
RobFebruary 14, 2026 at 6:56 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1495079Hi Mike! Yes, that is the layout I was going for, but as you saw we ran into some problems, and then also I found out that lazy load has not yet been added to the performance settings of gallery element, and since we are having some bandwidth issues, I returned to Masonry block. I actually would prefer the “hero” photo of Gallery on top with thumbnails below, and the hero to be sticky as user scrolls through thumbnails because sometimes there can be 60-90 photos in one gallery. I would also need to figure out how to lazy load it…
Thanks!

Can you let me know which country you are in? (feel free to leave in private content)I want to make sure you can access it!

RobFebruary 9, 2026 at 1:48 am in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494867It was in 1/1 temporarily earlier today as I tried to get the code to work but it has always been in 1/5, 3/5, 1/5 mode.
thanks for trying, I will see if the mods have any ideas.

February 8, 2026 at 8:36 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494860This one is worse, unfortunately.
The entire screen inlcluding the sticky menu at top is now in a 3/5 container it appears.February 8, 2026 at 8:05 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494857should i make images smaller? yes side would be great!
February 8, 2026 at 7:20 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494852It was already set to activate animation on page load.
February 8, 2026 at 7:18 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494851I’ll try that – in the meantime WP Engine just unblocked Germany (and the rest of Europe, so the mods here should be happy…)
February 8, 2026 at 5:25 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494843If yo ucan give the ray ID from the cloudflare error (at bottom) we can fix.
Re the image, here you go… basically the thumbnails are against the bottom of the screen and dont start to display nicely until user hovers. We are 99% there, just need some padding between bottom of thumbnails and bottom of page.
February 8, 2026 at 5:15 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494841Also Guenni can you paste the ray ID from the bottom of the cloudflare error so we can investigate?
February 8, 2026 at 4:56 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494837Sorry Guenni, WP Engine seems to insist on geoblocking my website even though i have told them to disable it. Can you try again? You can also see the behavior on your preview page. The thumbnails are right against the bottom of the container / page. it would be great if the container had some padding around it just under the thumbnails.
Thank you!
RobFebruary 8, 2026 at 4:39 pm in reply to: Make preview image on top of Gallery element sticky as user scrolls thumbnails? #1494832Wow Guenni, that is a lovely piece of code!! Thank you!! Enfold should consider adding this to core functionality as it is a huge upgrade to the Gallery element.
One question – how do I adjust the preview photo size and/or how much room the thumbnails have at the bottom of the sticky container?
Gallery with your css is now live on this page, towards the bottom:

Thank you!
RobJanuary 10, 2026 at 8:20 pm in reply to: Videos (Youtube/Vimeo) no longer opening in lightbox #1493804sure thing, thanks Mike.
January 10, 2026 at 5:15 pm in reply to: Videos (Youtube/Vimeo) no longer opening in lightbox #1493799Hey Mike, thanks for checking it out. That is very strange. I’m on Chrome, Win 11. A bit more in private content.
Strange as I use this same chrome profile on other devices and don’t have this issue. Sounds like a non Enfold issue so I’ll take it from here.

January 9, 2026 at 5:47 am in reply to: Videos (Youtube/Vimeo) no longer opening in lightbox #1493751Hi Ismael, I have worked in the past with WP Engine to turn off the geo blocking but I guess it is still there even though they say they removed it. Sorry. Is Mike still a US based mod, maybe he could see it, or you could use VPN to spoof an USA IP address?
Basically, for users this is not an issue because the site works fine as long as you’re not logged in as admin. As admin it is annoying to have the cookie notice pop up constantly.
Please let me know what I can do to help you help me.

RobJanuary 8, 2026 at 5:21 pm in reply to: Videos (Youtube/Vimeo) no longer opening in lightbox #1493729Solved: I figured out this is only happening when I’m logged in as an admin. Something about the cookie consent not persisting as every time I load a page I have to click “ok” on the cookie consent banner to dismiss it. Works fine in incognito and when not logged in.
Any ideas as to why the cookie banner won’t persist when logged in as an admin on chrome?
I’ll check it out – thanks.
Hi 007, good to see you after all these years.
Yes, it does amount to that. Ironically, these pages do have excellent SEO – but they are huge and at some point that will change, and WP Engine is threating me with bandwidth overages. One of them was posted in a large newspaper and our traffic – and bandwidth – went crazy. I would love to use “load more” in the gallery, but when you do that, the “slide show” only shows the items that were initially loaded. I would love to do a “load more” one page in, which should not be such a big deal, but again that functionality does not seem to exist (surprising). i have found “lazy load” to be buggy and problematic.Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
RobThanks but unfortunately it is a webpage for property for sale, so there are no subpages. Are you able to access the page now?
Thanks,
RobHey Ismael! I apologize I misunderstood the feedback from my client. He was asking for it to show the entire slide show even if those photos have not been yet loaded By clicking load more. So for example a gallery with 50 photos But only three visible because loadmore has not yet been clicked if you clicked on one of the photos before clicking load more it would show the entire 50 instead of just the first three in the slide show.
Is there any way to do this? Thanks!!
May 22, 2025 at 7:19 am in reply to: Reopening ticket to closed thread re fixed backgrounds on ipad not displaying #1484561Ismael, well done! I think you solved it!!!! Thank you so much for your perseverence on this one! The images look great on the ipad in both landscape and portrait. (In portrait I actually switch to photos scaled for mobile.)
Can we leave this thread open for a week so I can keep testing?
Thank you so much!!!!!

May 20, 2025 at 11:46 pm in reply to: Reopening ticket to closed thread re fixed backgrounds on ipad not displaying #1484503Hi Ismael,
Thanks for your patience and hard work on this! The latest code snippet above definitely helped and there are no longer the huge “zoomed in” images on the fixed images on iPad Safari. Is there any way you can access a VPN so you can see the page?
One thing that’s funny is that the images now display, but they are just a little smaller than the other images (that are set to scroll, not fixed) and so there’s a little white border next to them. Definitely better but if there’s a slight tweak to get them to stretch we would be 100%.Thanks,

OK thanks… it’s that same page I’m working on with you on the iPad issue…
https://www.thomashenthorne.com/125-belvedere-ave-belvedere-ca/
It’s a huge page with self-hosted video. Photos are compressed as is self hosted video (can’t move to Vimeo hosted wallpaper background yet) but it’s still 5 MB or so. Most of the people viewing the page likely just watch the video and then bounce, so would be great if I could add a “load more” banner to reduce the payload of loading all those images.
Open to any suggestions!
Best,
RobMay 16, 2025 at 6:45 am in reply to: Reopening ticket to closed thread re fixed backgrounds on ipad not displaying #1484318Hi Ismael,
Are you getting a cloudflare error? I have turned off Geoblocking there but I think WP Engine has some geoblock rules in place because we had a bot attack a few months ago.I’m on a trip without my iPad so I can’t check this weekend but please keep this thread open and I’ll test it as soon as I can.
Best,
Rob -
