Select “Gallery” from the list of categories
Choose one of the gallery templates and drag and drop it to the desired location

Choose gallery type

In the gallery settings, click on “Gallery type” to select the display type – lightbox or slideshow.

lightbox
The images are listed in tiles in a grid. Clicking on the image will open it up in an overlay over the page. You can then use the arrow keys to navigate back and forth.

slide show
Only one image is visible at a time and the arrows can be used to navigate back and forth or the images will play automatically (see View Options). The images cannot be enlarged by clicking. To do this, select the Lightbox type.
