    Hi –

    Is it possible to click on a button shortcode and open a PDF in a lightbox?

    Is it possible to click on text and open a PDF in a lightbox?

    If so, how?

    Is Foobox the default lightbox for X-Theme, or something else?

    Thanks!

    Hello There,

    Thanks for writing in!

    To click on a button and open a pdf in a lightbox, please insert a text element and insert this code:

    
[x_button class="btn-lightbox" shape="square" size="large" float="none" href="example.com/filename.pdf" info="none" lightbox_video="true"]Click me[lightbox selector=".btn-lightbox"][/x_button]

    To click on a text and opens up a pdf in a lightbox, please insert a text element and have this code:

    
<a class="link-lightbox" href="example.com/filename.pdf" title="Open the pdf">Click me [lightbox selector=".link-lightbox"]</a>

    The default lightbox use in X theme is the iLightbox.

    Hope this helps.
