Topic: Can you personalise target page for Home key?

The Home icon on Juicebox galleries successfully takes the user back to the default home page, which has normally met my needs. However, I now have a couple of new galleries where I wish to direct the user to different pages. Is there a facility for defining the target 'Home' page for each gallery?

Re: Can you personalise target page for Home key?

The 'Home' icon is the Back Button, displayed when backButtonPosition is set to either TOP or OVERLAY (and backButtonUseIcon is set to TRUE).

You can have the Back Button redirect to any web page you like by setting backButtonUrl (in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> Back Button' section).
The value for backButtonURL can be a relative path (relative to the web page containing the gallery's embedding code) or an absolute path (starting with either http:// or https://), for example:

backButtonUrl="http://www.example.com/index.html"

For reference, a list of all Back Button options can be found here.

I hope this helps.

Hi Steven,
Thanks for rapid response. I probably knew a couple of years ago that the Home icon was associated with the Back Button settings, but I had long forgotten this connection...

BTW, I'm getting a little worried about the lack of any updates to Juicebox since 2017. I would be happy to pay for Juicebox 2 to ensure that it keeps working in a safe and secure manner.

You're welcome!

Thank you for your continued support of Juicebox-Pro.
It has, indeed, been a while since the last release but please let me reassure you that Juicebox is still actively being developed and supported.
The next version will likely be a bug-fix release, rather than introducing new features. Work has started on the next version but progress is rather slow.
Unfortunately, I do not know when the next version will be released (there is no set release schedule) so any estimate I give you could turn out to be wholly inaccurate.
I hope this at least helps to reassure you that Juicebox is still alive and well!
