Photoswipe Breaks Rotating Image Links on WP 5.1.1 Multisite

    Any image that is rotating can no longer be clicked on, it needs to be clicked twice to be able to go to its link. Any static images with links are just fine and be clicked on without problem.

    I have tested this with some other sites, and I see the problem is there as well:

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Can you please tell me a specific URL with an example for this? I did not find any linked rotating images on the landing pages of the given websites, only images which link to articles.

    Hi Arno,

    Just realized this is only a problem on Google Chrome, not Edge or Firefox.
    Yes, they are rotating images, linking to articles – that is where the problem is.
    Try click on the big image on the home page of:
    https://www.independenceharbor.com/
    On the desktop, you will have click twice.

    Lightbox with PhotoSwipe will only use links which link to an image. Links to anything else will just be ignored completely and Lightbox with PhotoSwipe has nothing to do at all with any problems there.

    You can verify this by disabling Lightbox with PhotoSwipe in the backend temporary and then check if clicking the image in Chrome works as expected. I believe nothing will change, since Lightbox with PhotoSwipe has nothing to do with this click action.

    Edit: the description says “All linked images in a post or page will be displayed using PhotoSwipe” – this means links to an image and not an image which is used as link.

    I think you are right, I should have done the uninstall first. It started happening soon after I installed your app, so i assumed it was connected.

    On another note, happy to make a donation if you can make your photo navigation arrows larger.

    I just released version 1.96 which should fix this problem.

    SORRY – wrong support thread.

    About the arrow sizes – as this is a change which not everybody would like to have: this would be another custom skin. Could you be more specific, what “larger” means compared to the current size?

    Yes, we would love a custom skin!
    Arrows that are about 10 times larger than current and placed halfway between the image and the edge would be great. Let me know about the cost.

    What is “10 times larger” exactly? Every side enlarged by factor 3, so the whole button takes about 10 times more space or every side enlarged by factor 10, so the whole button takes 100 times more space?

    Current:

    anything bigger than the small arrow will be better,
    so if the current arrow is 10px high, lets say then new one should be 50px high
