Snippet: Disable Touch Motions on Lightbox

Updated: June 17, 2023

By default the included lightbox script in the theme (Fancybox 3) includes touch motion support for swiping between photos. If you wish to disable touch support you can via the following code.

/**
 * Disable Touch Motions on Lightbox.
 *
 * @link https://total.wpexplorer.com/docs/snippets/disable-touch-motions-on-lightbox/
 */
add_filter( 'totaltheme/lightbox/l10n', function( $settings ) {
	$settings['touch'] = false;
	return $settings;
} );

All PHP snippets should be added via child theme's functions.php file or via a plugin (we recommend WPCode)
