# How do I open items in a lightbox instead of the post page?

**Block settings → Click Action → Popup**.

Media items open their image. Posts open their featured image, or their video for the Video format, and posts without a featured image keep linking to the post.

See [Click Action](https://www.visualportfolio.com/docs/gallery-blocks/items-click-action/).
