Efficient Lightbox Plugin for WordPress Images
WP Featherlight Disabled is a minimalistic lightbox plugin designed for WordPress, enhancing the display of images and galleries with high-performance, responsive jQuery functionality. When users click on images, a lightbox popup appears, fading out the background to focus on the content. Navigation through galleries is user-friendly, allowing for on-screen arrows, touchscreen swipes, or keyboard arrow keys. The plugin supports various image formats, including WEBP, ensuring a versatile experience for users.
To utilize the lightbox effect, users must select the 'Media File' option for thumbnails or use 'Custom Link' for direct image links. Activation is straightforward, requiring a simple checkbox in the post settings. This forked version of the original WP Featherlight plugin is ultra-lightweight, loading CSS and JS only when enabled, making it a practical choice for those seeking efficiency without sacrificing functionality.
