Pictures not appearing in Lightbox anymore
-
Hi,
All my images on my site are not opening up with Lightbox overlay anymore? They are going directly to the file location eg domain.com/images/picture.jpg
Is there a compatibility issue with the new update to WordPress?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance ??

I’m still looking. No errors showing up that would indicate it shouldn’t work.
Hi Dan,
I run into the same problem after updating the plugin (WP3.5, LBP2.5.5): https://pointofmoment.de/wordpress/
at my research I found an additional part in the tag of images: rel=”attachment wp-att-425″ (see code at the buttom)
maybe this helps to localize the problemall posts before 12th january shows the images with lightbox, all from the 12th not
html of image before the 12th:
<img class=”alignnone size-medium wp-image-398″ title=”Eiskunst im Wesenitztal” alt=”” src=”https://pointofmoment.de/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/IMG_0708-300×200.jpg” width=”300″ height=”200″ />html of image beginning with 12th:
<img class=”alignnone size-medium wp-image-425″ alt=”Hutberg mit Schnee” src=”https://pointofmoment.de/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/IMG454-300×120.jpg” width=”300″ height=”120″ />best regards
UweCan you try this version: https://downloads.www.ads-software.com/plugin/lightbox-plus.2.5.6-beta.zip
Hi Dan,
I’ve deleted version 2.5.5 and installed the beta from your zip-file, but there is no change in displaying the images. I tested an other browser too (standard here is firefox and I tested with opera too) to avoid caching failure
best regards
Uwefor testing purpose I removed the additional ‘ rel=”attachment wp-att-426″‘ from the second image at the post from the 12th of january, but this also doesn’t effect the display
Ok, appreciate the information. Let me see what else I can think of.
I have the same problem at https://www.malu-design.de
Can u check it and give me a feedback, whats the reason for the error?!
Thanks
RAyYour Sharedaddy buttons also have a problem.
In your Dawanda widget try remove this
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
Widget will work as correct jQuery file is already loaded. Comes with WordPress. If it does not work their slider script is broken or not usable with current WordPress. If site was almost blank then jQuery might not be loaded already but is on your site.
Problem is they tell you to do this, here https://de.dawanda.com/cms/c/de/Verkauferportal/38-FAQ/386-WerbeWerkzeug-Widget#Wie-kann-ich-mir-das-DaWanda-Widget-auf-meiner-Wordpress-Webseite-auf-meinem-eigenen-Server-einrichten but is wrong. They have no clue of WordPress. Loading 2 jQuery files is dumb. Different versions or loading one via a widget does not help.
Also you have Fancybox loaded. Dont know if that is a problem or not. I would think a big yes. Since you use Eleganttheme I doubt there are options to disable. Not even sure it does anything actively but should it be a problem you can disable manually, somehow. Should probably check their forum.
May be there is issue related to Lightbox Plus but you should fix these first.
Hi tzdk – Thank you for your help! The Problem was exactely the Dawanda Widget and the code, you quoted. After removing, everythink works fine..
Cheers
RayI aslo have the same problem.
Latest version of WordPress and Lightbox Plus (2.5.5)Any help on this would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance ??
This thread is going places ??
Your problem is this https://cdn.designfather.com/wp-content/themes/open/js/jquery.tools.min.js Name hints file consist of jQuery.tools stuff and it does but oops, also includes jQuery 1.3.2 and then all bets are off. You can see in JS error console that Lightbox Plus think jQuery is 1.3.2 and so its .delegate https://api.jquery.com/delegate/ does not compute as it was added in 1.4.2
Also has some “jquery.event.wheel.js” thing. Besides of course jQuery tools script. That is another jQuery library thing used for tabs etc.
I see theme is from Themeforest so you should be able to contact dev. and ask for a fix? You cant because he removed theme? (I cant find it!) Well, then find another. May be from someone who updates their premium stuff? Idea of bundling is pretty good as an optimizing tweak, less http request, but not for mission critical scripts like this. No need to say jQuery 1.8.3 is ALSO loading. This bundle script is not identified or can act as a genuine jQuery = mess. And besides it is dirt old and probably wont work with lots of newer plugins, Lightbox Plus is one of them.
If you can fiddle with theme code you can fix this with no dev. Brute force is simply to edit out the ancient jQuery. That would be hmm the first 2 lines under
* File generated: Fri Sep 18 05:25:32 EDT 2009
both starting with
(function()
Next problem could be jQuery tools as that is also very old. https://jquerytools.org/release-notes/version-1.1.1.html from 2009 so if compatible with jQuery 1.8.3 or not I dont know.
If I am not blind and dev. really has removed theme you cant re-download it so make backup before doing anything. And perhaps start looking for new theme. Since this is crazy outdated other things probably are less than great. Time to die…
Dev is still selling there https://themeforest.net/user/Maximus/portfolio so you can always ask if he can help. Oh, they have own forum and there is one for “Open” theme https://support.themedemo.net/forum/open
Hi Dan,
I’ve found the reason for my problem: it comes from the new media manager in WP3.5. As default at the insert of a new image, the link will be set to the side of this image instead of the image itself (see screenshot, sorry, it is a german side with german letterings ?? ).
hope this helps others
best regards
Uwehey dan,
it’s definitely the new wordpress update, I rolled back to 3.4 and its working fine. something in 3.5 is causing it not to work

Ok, real quick. The new media manager (WP 3.5) may default to different options. I’ve used it inserted images with it and made sure the link was to the media file. LBP works like normal.
Newest version of ColorBox should correct old jQuery compatibility issues, though it also doesn’t seem to play nice with LBP right now.
Unfortunately I have influenza right now and am not capable of much. I am trying to get a release out by Monday though which I think will solve a number of issue. Not sure if that’s going to happen though because of the flu.
All that said I haven’t forgotten about all this.
Also @tzdk thanks for all the extra troubleshooting for everyone.
