Hi, sorry I don't understand, if there is no thumbnails frow which place it should be linked to detail window?

I am using a lightbox with the thumbnail slider. The goal is to go straight from the category to the lightbox; the thumbnails exist on the lightbox slideshow, so having a page of thumbnails is an unneeded step, an extra click, extra work for the user... names and descriptions associated with each thumbnail are not necessary.

However, I would also like picture descriptions and names to appear within the expanded image in the lightbox itself. that is the second goal.

But the most important step is getting rid of the thumbnail page!

thanks
Chris

Hi, this needs to be customized but as I don't know the changes you have made, I cannot say how
