Hi.
I have included a gallery into the template page and, to reduce the page size, I created two fields: one with the thumbnail size and the other with full-size.
I also called the lightbox feature, used by my WP theme, and added a class to resize the images in two columns.
The code I'm using is this one:
<center>[wpv-for-each field="wpcf-ig-images"]
[types field='ig-images' size='full' class='columnwidth' alt="[wpv-post-title]" title="[wpv-post-title]"][/types]
[/wpv-for-each]</center>
It works OK. As expected, when I click on an image, it opens the respective full-size image.
The problem is that lightbox doesn't have the same features that Elementor has (zoom, share, maximize, etc). Because of that, when I open an image and rotate the mobile device, the image doesn't fill the empty space, as it happens on any other page not using Toolset.
Is there any way to force Toolset images to use Elementor Lightbox?
I tried to insert the Toolset gallery into an Elementor page but it didn't work either.

You can see the difference live, opening an image on these two websites

2) Toolset Website: hidden link
Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.
I've performed some tests with Elementor, but couldn't make the lightbox work outside the Elementor builder's environment. You can consult their official support team to see if that is possible.
There are third-party lightbox plugins available like "ARI Fancy Lightbox", which offer similar lightbox features. However, for advanced features like social sharing, you may have to update to their Pro version.

Here are some guides which review some of the popular lightbox plugins:

I hope this helps.

Since Elementor Lightbox is already working on my website, I thought there was a way to call it for a Toolset gallery.
I understand now that this is not possible. However, it was unexpected to me to see that even on an Elementor page, the Elementor Lightbox doesn't work if I'm embedding a Toolset gallery.
I will keep things the way they are now.
Thank you.
