Hi,
My Gallery page has a grid container with 12 images (every single image is linked with its own media id). I added an Overlay Panel (with 48 images, including those 12 from a page) and a Condition.
In the recent past, when I clicked on any of those 12 images, Lightbox plugin opened, showing all 48 images from Overlay Panel, one by one.
I realised now, Lightbox is not showing all 48 images from Overlay Panel anymore, but only those 12 from page. Could you help me sort it out, please?
thanks,

Hi there.
Correct me if I am wrong but as far as I can see you are using a lightbox plugin to open those images and not an overlay panel in which case you would have to consult with the plugin developer. If you are using a condition, how did you set it up?

Hi George,
Yes, correct, I use lightbox plugin. Not sure how it was set up (with or without a condition), but to my surprise, it was somehow working;) Let me know if it makes more sense to have access to my site so you can see the current setup.
Anyway, is there a way NOT to use a lightbox plugin at all and use GB overlay panel + carousel only? So let’s say I will have 12 static images on a page, and if any of those images are clicked, then an overlay panel with a carousel will open all 48 images?thanks

Ok, try and temporarily disable the lightbox plugin and see of the previous functionality has been reverted.
Let me know how it goes!

I disabled the lightbox plugin, cleared cache. Not working at all now.

Ok, so there is no connection with any GB overlay panels (you can enable the plugin if you want so that your gallery is functional). What exactly are you after? A popup overlay that loads the images like the current lightbox does with arrows left and right? That would look a bit funny because with each image clicked, the user would expect to see the related image in the overlay, instead the first image of a very long carousel would be visible initially. Are you sure this is what you want?

Been playing with it today on my local site. I think I won’t need a lightbox plugin at all.
I will add 6 static, unclickable images to the grid container and will add a button below the container. Button will open a pop-up overlay, which will look like a lightbox with arrows, a close X button, and all 48 images.
Does it make sense;) ? -
Yes, that makes sense and you can totally do that.
This video (from 8:12) shows how to add a close button for the overlay panel:
