What it does
Sliders are good at fitting many images into a small space, but that same compact size can make detailed photos hard to appreciate. This addon solves that by letting slider images open in a lightbox overlay. Visitors see the picture at a larger size without the rest of the page competing for attention, and they can switch to native browser fullscreen for an edge to edge view on larger displays.
The addon works inside your existing Soliloquy sliders, so you turn the lightbox on or off from the Soliloquy interface rather than building a separate gallery. You can adjust styling and animation options to fit your site's design, and visitors can move between multiple images within a single lightbox. It suits portfolios, photo galleries and any site where images carry the content.
Best for
- Photographers and creatives using Soliloquy sliders for portfolios
- Sites with photo galleries built inside Soliloquy sliders
- Agencies adding larger image views to client sliders
Features
Native browser fullscreen
Uses the browser's own fullscreen mode so lightbox images can fill the screen edge to edge, giving visitors a distraction-free view of your photos.

Simple on and off toggle
Enable or disable the lightbox for a slider with a few clicks in the Soliloquy plugin interface, making it easy to use only where it fits.
Gallery navigation

Responsive display
The lightbox adapts to different screen sizes, so images and galleries display properly on desktops, tablets and smartphones.
