The Fashionable Theme has the jQuery lightBox plugin by Leandro Vieira built in. To open a post image in a lightbox the image must have set the “lightbox” CSS class.

It is very simple to add a class to an image in WordPress. Just follow the steps bellow:

Go to editor and click on the “Edit image” icon > Select Advanced Setting Tab > Append “lightbox” to CSS class input > Click Update > Save your post > That’s it!

We also made a short video tutorial that will show you how to open images in a lightbox when using our free wordpress Fashionable Theme.

One of the main things we have in mind when we’re developing themes at Themesbell is the layout flexibility, which allows a theme to serve for multiple purposes and to be very customizable (colors, backgrounds, images).

The Fashionable Theme is a great example where we use “Layout flexibility”, this means that you can easily have a single-column, 2 columns or 3 columns layout without changing any code.

To remove a column just drag&drop it in the right of the black line in the admin area. To bring it back, just drag it in the left of the black line. It’s easy! You can also change the column order with drag&drop. Do you want the content column in the middle? Drag it there!

Below is a short video tutorial of how layout flexibility works
