The best lightbox on the market!

Bojan Deni? February 29, 2024

Thanks for the best lightbox-free plugin on the market for WordPress!

Simple, works straight away and responsive

devgirl May 10, 2023

I am very impressed with this plugin, it worked right out the box and looks great and works on mobile too. I liked that it doesn’t have a ton of extras that slow down the process and my website, I just wanted a good lightbox that worked easily! Thank you!

Yup, it works! Right out of the box.

It’s enabled by default and flat out works. Images now open is a small popup window and disappear with one click. Easy.

Very nice plugin!

Works very well!

Doesn’t support attachment links

jenwebb March 25, 2022

This plugin works for just displaying the image in a lightbox, but I’m looking for something that displays the attachment as a modal with title description etc

Did exactly what I needed – lightbox from text link

Most other plugins require you to use a shortcode. This one allows you to use normal HTML which is what I wanted ??
