    I am checking out FooGallery before deciding which gallery software to use and have hit a problem.

    I am trying to activate FooBox Free and even though it appears to download and can be activated, it does not appear as a lightbox option.

    I may be doing something wrong but cannot seem to find out what.

    Any pointers welcome as the lightbox is critical to what I want to do.

    Thanks.
    Tony

  • A couple things to try.

    1. Make sure that FooBox Free shows as activated in the normal plugins listing and also in the FooGallery –> Extension listing.

    2. Edit the FooGallery you already made before activating FooBox and simply click “Update”.

    After that, you should see FooBox as an option in the Lightbox dropdown choice.

    Thanks Adam.

    I have solved this by installing the plugin as I would normally, then activated it and hey presto!

    I think the auto install/ activate is not working for me even though it suggested is was:

    ====
    The extension FooBox FREE was successfully downloaded and can now be activated. Activate immediately

    The extension FooBox FREE was successfully activated
    ====

    Did you manage to solve your problem torghoundy?

    I think all I did was install Foobox free from WordPress and activate it.

    Will be doing all again tonight so hopefully it will all work!

    No it did not worked and I used this plugin:

    OK

    I managed to install it all last night without a problem. For information: I just installed the two plugins from WordPress and activated them.

    I will have a look at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/lightbox-plus/ although Foobox seems to provide what I was looking for.
