**I’m having trouble with**  
my background is disabled for scrolling when the Lightbox is on but I would need it to scroll. it should look like the «Cookies» app from the Wix App market, where the cookies lightbox stays open but you can still scroll.

**Working in**  
Wix Studio Editor

I [posted in the thread](https://forum.wixstudio.com/t/disable-page-scroll-when-lightbox-is-active/70461/18) but I’m asking to see if there was a change to the lightbox behavior.

Looks like Wix lightboxes stop the page from scrolling by default. At the moment there isn’t a built-in way around it, so a feature request or custom code might be the only solution
