Add the functionality for images, so that if an image is input into an item of content, but at a reduced size, if a user clicks on it, then the full size image is shown in a pop-up or Lightbox. This allows the user to view the full size image, whilst staying on the same page.

Stories

AS A SYSTEM I want to automatically transform all the images within the user entered rich text area into a lightbox modal SO THAT the user can cycle through all the relevant images on the page.

AS A USER I want to to be able to view a full size version of the image on a page, without leaving the page SO THAT it is quick and easy for me to look at the relevant image.

What are you trying to do that our product is not able to support?

Allows a smaller image within a page to be viewed full screen on click without opening a new page.

What is the reason that you need to be able to do this?

Adds richer content to pages, allows viewing of images of, e.g. posters, without having to download or leave the page you're currently on.

What is the impact of you not being able to do this?

Creates a disconnect for the user if they have to click a link which opens a new page to view an image or download a file, shunting them from the content they are viewing which may make it more difficult to read pages smoothly. Again, may lead to content not being read and increase bounce rates if users don't return to the original page.
