Photo galleries and carousels
You can create a lightbox gallery from the page file attachments by adding the tag 'add_photo_gallery' to a basic page.
The images from the 'Files' section of the page will then be added to a thumbnail grid underneath any page content.
On clicking a thumbnail it will open in a lightbox to show a larger version of the image.
If you want to add a short caption to an image you can add append the string '_caption' to the file name followed by the required text, replacing any spaces with underscores, e.g. DSC02761_caption_Two_women_with_glasses_on_their_heads.jpg.
The underscores will then be swapped for spaces when displayed on the front end.
You can create a carousel gallery from the page file attachments by adding the tag 'add_photo_carousel' to a basic page.
The images from the 'Files' section of the page will then be added as a carousel under any page content.

- Add the tag 'photo_gallery' to the FAQ.
- Add 'Questions' to your FAQ, each of which will represent a photo in your gallery.
- For each 'Question' add the photo to the 'Files' section and give the image an appropriate headline. You can add extra detail and captions in the question content section.
Each 'Question' from your image FAQ will then be displayed in a lightbox gallery on your parent basic page.
