Eureka! I found out the problem!

So I did as you stated, esmi. I tried 2012 theme again and the lightbox was working on there.

I realized my custom theme did NOT have wp_head and wp_footer! The two most important hooks for plugins to work.

I put those hooks into my theme in the appropriate places, turned Lightbox Gallery plugin back on (turned off other lightbox plugins) and it worked) ??

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

Please read what I posted before.

The one I am USING as an example is part of my custom theme. But I just wanted to keep you in the loop that I have tried plugins and they have the same problem

I have tried all of them with the other lightbox plugins disabled so they do not conflict. Even with only one on and the other disabled, same problem

I tried both routes. They did not work for some reason. I did that custom lightbox from the site I posted in my original post. I’ve tried the lightbox plugins (prettyphoto, lightbox 2, lightbox gallery, etc). they all have the same problem:( the images dont open in a lightbox, they open in another img window

^^I wrote in the post prior that I do have 2012 and I tested it…

It comes out in it’s uncompressed, image size. No light box either

DO you mean “twenty twelve”? lol please wait while I see how it looks

Are you talking about switching the themes? I do not have a “2012” theme in the themes area….

I don’t quite understand what you mean by “2012 theme”? I built this theme by hand.

Here’s the HTML I put for the page:

<br />
<div id="page"><br />
  <div id="images"></p>
<p>   <ul class="gallery"></p>
<p>    <a href="https://www.kumarsapra.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Ujjwal-Sapra-2.jpg" rel="lightbox">

Yes, all of the plugins are deactivated before I started working on it.
