I want to show a single picture from a gallery (formatted in a way to make it look like an album), and when a user clicks on it, I want it to show all pictures in the pretty photo lightbox.
I was thinking maybe this could be done by doing a slider, grid, masonry, etc– and then using css to show only 1 photo.
I was looking at using Nextgen, but with them, too, there is not a simple way to go directly to the lightbox from an album.
Hi,
Can you post the link to the page where you have this gallery please?

Create the galleries with the Gallery element in a different Page, then post the link here.

Great! Thanks!
You are welcome, always glad to help :)

Hi Josue,
I just a noticed an issue with this solution. If I have 3 images in the gallery, then doing this cover photo will add a 4th in the lightbox. I figured out I can delete the image from the gallery and all will work okay, but is there a way to have this cover image trigger the lightbox, but not add a picture to it?
Hi,
I need an administrator account to see the page you linked.
Cheers!

That should work fine, but if you are planning to have multiple albums/galleries in the same page i think it may need some adjusting, have you tried it in that environment?

Ok, done :)
