This WordPress Plugin adds a simple & lightweight Lightbox to the standard WordPress Gallery & Image Block. It detects if a post contains a Gallery or Image Block and then loads & initialize <a href="https://github.com/feimosi/baguetteBox.js" rel="nofollow ugc">baguetteBox.js</a>, a pure JavaScript Lightbox script without any dependencies and a modern minimal look.
There is no lock in effect. It does not add a new Block Editor/Gutenberg Block and relies solo on the standard WordPress Gallery and Image Block. You can deactivate this plugin at any time and your Gallery and Image Blocks will work as they’ve done before. Just without the lightbox.
Just one important thing to remember: You always have to select Link → Link to image file or Link images to media file (see screenshots below) for all of your Image & Gallery Blocks to work properly. If you choose None or Link to attachment page it will not work. But that’s fine if you don’t want the Lightbox for a specific Image or Gallery.
Take a look at the <a href="https://youtu.be/qfLOH22cUNM" rel="nofollow ugc">YouTube video from Jakson</a> where he reviews this plugin:

Notice: At the moment, just Blocks inside a post are supported. Not Blocks in a Widget. You can make it work but have to enqueue the necessary style & script yourself. See FAQ –> How to enqueue the necessary assets (script & style) for blocks outside of posts or for block types that are not supported by default?

Lightbox for Gallery & Image Block

Lightbox for Blocks


This is one of this plugins that improves WordPress with zero effort and a easy minimalistic approach that should be in the core.



Congratulations!


Brilliant and simple solution


My favourite lightweight lightbox viewer closed recently and I needed something to replace it.



This plugin is super lightweight, and has exactly the same admin interface, i.e. nothing to do, just install it and watch the magic happen on existing images and galleries. What's not to like.


A worthy successor to WP Featherlight

Adds a simple & lightweight Lightbox to the standard WordPress Gallery & Image Block. No lock in and no dependencies.

popups

Try it out on your free dummy site: Click here => <a href="https://demo.tastewp.com/mpu" rel="nofollow ugc">https://tastewp.com/plugins/pop-up-pop-up</a>. 
(this trick works for all plugins in the WP repo – just replace “wordpress” with “tastewp” in the URL)
Create stunning pop-ups in a breeze!
This plugin allows you (in combination with MyPopUps.com) to place cool-looking pop-ups on your site for various purposes:
<ul>
<li>Collect emails</li>
<li>Show discount codes</li>
<li>Get social likes & shares</li>
<li>Show cookie notices</li>
<li>Block ad-blockers</li>
</ul>
You can design the pop-ups to your liking thanks to the powerful builder on MyPopUps.
You can activate & disable the pop-ups directly inside this plugin (without having to leave your WP dashboard)!
Coming soon: define much more granular rules when & how the pop-ups should show (using WordPress parameters, inside this plugin).
Give it a shot! If you find any ways how to improve it, please let us know in the support forum, we’ll always try to respond quickly 🙂
Note: This plugin relies on the 3rd party service MyPopUps, which can be reached at https://mypopups.com. The pop-ups are created on MyPopUps and displayed on your website with the help of this plugin. Only when you click on the “Yes” button in the plugin a connection is established to MyPopUps (this is also mentioned on that button). For the confidential handling of your data, please have a look at MyPopUps’ GDPR-compliant privacy policy at https://mypopups.com/privacy as well at the terms of use at https://mypopups.com/terms. If you have any questions about those, please don’t hesitate to contact us here https://mypopups.com/contact-us. Thank you!

Pop-up


To use this plugin you must first make a popup (register?) at their website. So that's a no no. Another company trying to horde in on your server.
