# Vertical Lightbox Content Unit

The Vertical Lightbox Unit provides a sleek and immersive way to showcase vertical video content while also supporting horizontal videos for added flexibility. When a video is clicked, it opens in a fullscreen, vertically scrollable popup overlay.

#### **Options:**

- **Content Unit name**: Assign a name of your content unit.

- **Script ad tag (Display/Outstream)**: Insert your ad tag or outstream script to serve ads between videos.
- **Frequency**: Set how often the banner ad appears. For example, value of “2” means an ad is shown after every two videos.
- **Choose player**: Select desired player from the drop-down list.
- **Choose playlist**: Select desired playlist from the drop-down list.

#### **Monetization**

Choose between a **Display Banner Ad Tag** or an **Outstream** for monetization. Simply paste your preferred ad script and set the **frequency** to determine how often the banner ad appears (e.g., after how many videos or swipes the ad will be served).

### **Display Ad Banner**

To add a display banner ad, simply paste your desired ad tag into the **Script Ad Tag** field. Your tag script should look like this:

\<script async src="https://securepubads.g.doubleclick.net/tag/js/gpt.js"\>\</script\>

\<div id="gpt-passback"\>

    \<script\>

        window.googletag = window.googletag || {cmd: \[\]};

        googletag.cmd.push(function() {

            googletag.defineSlot('/your\_banner', \[\[300, 250\]\], 'gpt-passback').addService(googletag.pubads());

            googletag.enableServices();

            googletag.display('gpt-passback');

        });

    \</script\>

\</div\>

 

We recommend making the banner responsive and using the following sizes: 300x250, 320x50, 300x600, etc.

**Important**:

Some publishers use the following CSS (or similar), which overruns our JavaScript and prevents the ad from bursting out of the iframe:

.article\_\_html iframe {

    max-width: 100% !important;    

    min-width: auto !important;

    width: 100% !important;

}

To ensure proper ad behavior, you need to apply the following exception:

.article\_\_html iframe:not(.bplr-shorts-placeholder-card-ad iframe) {

    max-width: 100% !important;

    min-width: auto !important;

    width: 100% !important;

}

On your website, it should look like this:

### **Outstream**

If you decide to use an outstream ad, we recommend utilizing our **Outstream In-content Ad Unit** and setting a fixed ad unit player size. The recommended sizes are: 300x250, 320x50, 300x600 etc. Alternatively, if you prefer to use an aspect ratio, we suggest a 9:16 ratio for optimal display.

On your website, it should look like this:
