I recently learned that there’s a built-in “lightbox” function for the block editor, where you can click on images to expand them. Go ahead, try it on the picture below:

Isn’t that wild?! Who knew! This should be the default:

Through the magic of the Internet, now it can be!

Sets the Image block's default Link setting to "Enlarge on click" (core lightbox) in the Block Editor.

I took the lazy way and vibe coded this with Claude Code, so now all images on my blarg (and yours too if you’d like!) will expand by default.

This plugin comes with no warranty. I will not be able to help you with it. Use it at your own expense. If it deletes your site, code, house, whatever, that’s on you. Don’t download random things from the Internet and run them. Lesson learned. I am not held liable.

Go ahead, take this plugin, and do evil terrible things with it! Crush the skulls of your enemies!
