I uploaded the latest version this afternoon and sudde3nly the lightbox feature is not working. It worked yesterday. Can you tell me why? Can I uninstall the update somehow until this issue is resolved? Thx
I’ve got this problem too!! Lightboxes don’t works on new release of pinboard theme!!
Same problem here…yesterday it worked, updated today and Lightbox is INOP. I have no knowledge of programming, what can a non-programmer do to repair this?
I appear to have solved the problem by uploading the jQuery Colorbox plugin version 4.6. Hope this helps.
I tried binty2207’s fix, and now I’ve got some pages where pics open in a lightbox and two pages where they do not….???
Ticked the box in settings for use colorbox automatically. My WordPress is in German but this is the setting (if you read German):
Automatisch die Colorbox-CSS-Klasse für Bilder in Beiträgen und Seite einfügen. Fügt die Klasse auch für Galerien ein. Alle Bilder innerhalb eines Beitrags oder einer Seite werden automatisch gruppiert.
I am not sure if lightbox then works for pictures in sidebars. I don@t have any. Would suggest experimenting with settings. Good luck
Here is an update, looks like lightbox is working, I already had binty’s suggested box ticked, I also ticked the box for colorbox for all images not in etc…..
I don’t know exactly what worked, maybe just letting it sit for a couple hours from my initial colorbox plugin install….but it is currently working.
A big thank you to Binty, and onedesigns for having this forum, I love the internet!
I had the same problem and followed binty’s advice and downloaded the jQuery Colorbox plugin. On the colorbox settings page I ticked ‘Automate jQuery Colorbox for all images in pages, posts and galleries:’ and nothing else. Everything works fine now!
Thanks binty for posting the solution. This has been a huge help 🙂
I’m having the same problem as of 6/9/13. Galleries that worked in 1.0.7 have stopped working in 1.0.8. and the above mentioned jQuery Colorbox plugin setting is not working for me. Whereas before my images opened in popup carousel, now each image opens up to a new dedicated webpage.
And now several hours later…
OK, this appears to a be an issue that several people using a variety of themes have experienced since WP updated to 3.5.1.
Here’s how I resolved the the issue in Pinboard 1.0.8 using a combination of the advice binty2207 suggested above and a code fix I found here:
1. In Pinboard’s General Settings, I unchecked: Open image links in a lightbox
2. I installed jQuery Colorbox, Version 4.6
3. The jQuery Colorbox settings are divided into two fields, The top half is the only field you have to concern yourself with. In that field, at the very top of the page, I checked:Automate jQuery Colorbox for all images in pages, posts and galleries.
[I also checked the following, but these have no affect on functionality:
Check: Remove the link to the developers site from the WordPress meta-box.
Check: Disables the warning that is displayed if the plugin is activated but the auto-colorbox feature for all images is turned off.]4. Next, go to the broken gallery and examine the code with the text editor. You are going to make a modification to the code directly within the post or page.
If you see something like this:
[gallery link="post" ids="246,247,244,245,243"]Change ‘post’ to file, so that it reads:
[gallery link="file" ids="246,247,244,245,243"]If you see something like this:
[gallery columns="4" ids="246,247,244,245,243"]Then add link=”file” after gallery, so that it reads:
[gallery link="file" columns="4" ids="246,247,244,245,243"](In case it’s not obvious, those numbers are unique to the images in your gallery, so don’t insert them into your gallery. You’re gallery will have its own ids.)
Now update the post, go to page and and see if this fix works for you, too.
