When should I use ampersands (&) and the question mark (?) in Lightboxify URLs?
In Lightboxify URLs, the question mark (?) is used to start the query string, which contains the parameters for the Lightboxify functionality. The ampersands (&) are used to separate multiple parameters within the query string.
Example Format:
URL Structure: /source-gallery?lightboxify=true&lightboxify-mode=gallery&lightboxify-theme=dark#gallery-block-id
The ? begins the query string.
The & separates each parameter (e.g., lightboxify=true, lightboxify-mode=gallery, lightboxify-theme=dark).
This format ensures that all the parameters are correctly passed to enable the lightbox with the specified attributes. For more details, you can refer to the Lightboxify URLs FAQ.
