How to implement photoswipe into wordpress custom theme?

I’m trying to implement photoswipe into my site but I’m not sure how to go about it for a wordpress site..

I’m using acf repeater to display all images in a grid. I’d like to display the photoswipe gallery when an image is clicked.

I’ve read the documentation for photoswipe, but I don’t understand how to use it with a repeater field.

Any help would be appreciated..

Answer

In my opinion, sack off photoswipe and use lightgallery.

Photoswipe is bloated and lightgallery does the same shiz with sweeter options.

If your outputting your repeater field images grid in semantic fashion then this will do the trick…

See jsfiddle example.

$('.grid').lightGallery({
  selector: '.lightgallery'
});

.grid {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

FIGURE {
  margin: 0;
  width: 25%;
  display: block;
  float: left;
  position: relative;
  overflow: hidden;
}

FIGURE A {
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
}

FIGURE A::after {
  content: '';
  display: block;
  padding-top: 100%;
}

FIGURE A IMG {
  height: 100%;
  position: absolute;
  left: 50%;
  top: 50%;
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
