Renaming the Lightbox Feature – Asset Bank Help Centre

The Lightbox feature in Asset Bank allows you to collect and share assets.

If you would like to change the name of the Lightbox, throughout the site, then this can be done in the Admin > Content menu. You could choose to change it to something like 'Favourites', for example.

There are five snippets that you will need to update in Admin > Content. Use the search box on the right of the page to find and edit:

Term for the Lightbox
Plural Term for the Lightbox
Term for My Lightbox
Lowercase term for lightbox
Tab - Manage Lightboxex (sic)

Modifying these will update all the relevant references in Asset Bank to the Lightbox.

If you are making this change once you have users in your system with Lightboxes then it will not update the already created default lightbox for each user titled, 'My Lightbox'.

You can rename your default 'My Lightbox' in Lightbox > Manage Lightboxes > Edit.

If you host Asset Bank on-premise and would like to change this for all existing users yourself then please backup your database and run the below to find out the number of affected lightboxes:

SELECT count(*) FROM AssetBox WHERE Name="My Lightbox";

And then, to update the names (in this case to 'My Favourites') run:

UPDATE AssetBox SET Name="My Favourites" WHERE Name="My Lightbox";

The number of rows affected by the UPDATE should match the number returned by the SELECT
