    Hello, I would prefer to have buttons like the ones called “ugly browsing buttons” in the slideshow settings, but I want them in my normal photo lightboxes. I want them to stay near the edges of the screen and not adjust to the image proportions like the current navigation bar does. I would also like to be able to upload a custom icon for the buttons, or maybe just some more customisation options. Any chance this could get added? Thanks

    In Basic settings -> Lightbox -> I -> Item 19: Click on background you can select Browse (left/right) Maybe usefull for you.

    The icons are all .svg images and not used as such, but completely coded. This is to enable a lot of customization. The option ‘use gif/png (no svg)’ is being phased out and is currently only applicable to the spinner.

    If you supply me (a set of) icon(s) in .svg format i may implement it as a alternative set. You can mail me: opajaap at opajaap dot nl

    That setting is pretty close to what I want, but without icons or any other visual indication I think it’s not obvious enough (a large part of those who will use my website are older and not so good with technology so I want to make things clear and easy to use).

    I also like using the setting that exits when clicking on background, so if I had buttons on the side it would basically be like having the functionality of both settings at once.

    I also think that positioning the exit button in the top right and making it a little larger would also be better, at least for me.

    I’ll see if I can find some good svg icons, thanks.

    Adding arrows to the background will be considered

    You can do a lot with custom css. For example:

    #wppa-ovl-prev-btn svg, #wppa-pctl-prev-0 svg{
    	position:fixed !important;
    	top:50%;
    	left:0;
    	width:48px !important;
    	height:48px !important;
    }
    #wppa-ovl-next-btn svg, #wppa-pctl-next-0 svg{
    	position:fixed !important;
    	top:50%;
    	right:0;
    	width:48px !important;
    	height:48px !important;
    }
    #wppa-exit-btn-2 svg{
    	position:fixed !important;
    	top:0;
    	right:0;
    	width:48px !important;
    	height:48px !important;
    }

    Thanks. Is there any easy way to add buttons like that with CSS, instead of moving the existing buttons? It would be great if I could have that layout and still keep the original navigation bar intact too, if possible.

    Thank you! I just checked it out and it’s pretty much exactly what I wanted, the only thing that’s missing is some visual feedback when clicking the buttons, such as slightly shrinking and/or changing transparency on click. I assume this is possible with custom CSS so I will try it myself
