# How to lightboxify Squarespace Portfolio gallery

Aug 10

Written By Beyondspace

Following up on our recent proposal to enable lightbox functionality for Squarespace portfolio projects, I’m excited to announce that this feature is now live!

Other layout that supported by Lightbox Studio  so far:

- Slideshow Gallery blocks
- Slideshow Gallery sections
- Auto Layouts: Simple List, Banner Slideshow, Carousel

## Supported Portfolio layouts

Squarespace 7.1 Portfolio pages come with five different layouts, and Lightbox Studio now supports lightbox functionality for two of them:

- Grid: Simple
- Grid: Overlay

### How to Enable Lightbox for Your Portfolio

To turn your portfolio page into a lightbox gallery, follow these steps:

1. **Find Your Portfolio URL Path:**  
   Navigate to your portfolio page and get the URL path. For example, if your portfolio URL is `example.com/projects`, the value you need is `/projects`.
2. **Use the Lightbox Studio settings:**  
   Open the Lightbox Studio playground, input the `/projects` value into the provided field. If you have multiple portfolio pages, separate each path with a comma.

### Notes

- **Gallery Scanning:** Lightbox Studio will scan each project page for a gallery, either in block or section format.
- **Fallback to Project Page:** If gallery is found on the project page, users will be redirected to the actual project page instead of a lightbox.
- **Compatibility with Universal Filter:** The new feature has been thoroughly tested against the Universal Filter for portfolio pages to ensure smooth compatibility and functionality.

### Demostration

The new feature has been tested against different Squarespace websites, in case you need to test on your site, try the preview feature of Lightbox Studio

#### Demo 1:

Sculpture artist website with lightbox dark theme & multiline gallery captions

#### Demo 3:

Interior design website with light lightbox theme

#### Demo 2:

## Conclusion

This update brings seamless integration of the lightbox feature for Squarespace portfolio galleries, enhancing the user experience with compatibility across multiple layouts and filters. Keep an eye on more updates!
