Lightbox on mobile

[qua7]

Hi everyone,
as far as I remember lightbox used to work on mobile the same way it worked on desktop: you could navigate to next or previous image by clicking (or touching in the case of mobile). Now navigation only workes by swiping in mobile. Is my memory misleading me - or is this a bug?

hey i think its a great idea and if you update the lightbox addon now, this should work, cause i just released an update

not sure if that used to work before too

[qua7]

thank you, Armin. I just updated the addon, but for me it still does not work on mobile.

I don't think that I use any caching plugin.
I emptied the cache in Safari, it now works on iphone but not on ipad.

ah, whats your ios version or safari version on your ipad?
i looked at my code now, and it seems like it should work theoretically

[qua7]

ios 18, so it should be the newest safari version. But it still does not work.
sorry for late reply.

[arminunruh]

ok i will install ios18 now and test it.

hey! i installed ios18 and it works for me!
on safari! u tap on an image. then the lightbox opens. u tap on left or right screen and then it goes left or right

[qua7]

hm, tapping still does not work on Safari on iPad. Only a swiping movement works.
Tapping works on Safari on iphone though.
