I'm making a gallery and I'm using magnific popup to create it, however I have a hover event on the images that show an icon to suggest it can be viewed so I had to make it an absolute position. However, it stops the image from being clickable hence I can't open the the gallery carousel. I tried using a z-index: 1 to fix this but it didn't work. Here is my code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.seller-gallery').magnificPopup({
delegate: 'a',
type: 'image',
tLoading: 'Loading image #%curr%...',
mainClass: 'mfp-img-mobile',
gallery: {
enabled: true,
navigateByImgClick: true,
preload: [0, 1] // Will preload 0 - before current, and 1 after the current image
},
image: {
tError: '<a href="%url%">The image #%curr%</a> could not be loaded.',
titleSrc: function(item) {
return item.el.attr('title') + '<small>by Marsel Van Oosten</small>';
}
}
});
});.grid-gallery {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);
gap: 1rem;
}
.gallery-item {
cursor: pointer;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
.gallery-item a {
pointer-events: all;
}
.gallery-item:hover .gallery-item-info,
.gallery-item:focus .gallery-item-info {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
.gallery-item-info {
display: none;
}
.gallery-item-info span {
display: inline-block;
}
.img-fluid {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;

</div>To fix your issue add pointer-events: none to the .gallery-item-info element you display over the top of the content. This will mean that it accepts no mouse input, so the event will pass through to the underlying content.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.seller-gallery').magnificPopup({
delegate: 'a',
type: 'image',
tLoading: 'Loading image #%curr%...',
mainClass: 'mfp-img-mobile',
gallery: {
enabled: true,
navigateByImgClick: true,
preload: [0, 1] // Will preload 0 - before current, and 1 after the current image
},
image: {
tError: '<a href="%url%">The image #%curr%</a> could not be loaded.',
titleSrc: function(item) {
return item.el.attr('title') + '<small>by Marsel Van Oosten</small>';
}
}
