In Kumu, you can embed content from external providers into a lightbox.
To show content in a lightbox, start by finding a link to the embeddable version of the external content. Once you have the link, just add add ?lightbox
to the end for the default lightbox, or add ?lightbox=full
for a nearly-fullscreen lightbox.
Add the completed link into one of the following places in your map:
- The Map Overview located in the side panel
- The text for any presentation slide
- The Description field in any profile
- Any custom field with its field type set to Text or URL
{% hint style="info" %}
Tip: Add the lightbox to a custom field named URL
with its type set to URL, and the lightbox will open when your element, connection, or loop is double-clicked.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %} Note: If you're looking to put a Youtube video in a lightbox, make sure to use the full URL. More info here. {% endhint %}
