    Hello,

    I’m using the Esplanade WP theme and it’s great. I’ve also installed the Lightbox Plus plugin for images and galleries. I’ve turned off “Lightbox” under theme options and individual images work just fine with the plugin.

    Where I run into trouble is when I want to create a gallery and display them in the lightbox format. I’ve followed the directions of the plugin but the images still open up individually as a link.

    I tested a different plugin specifically for creating a lightbox gallery and it ran into the same problems that I was having before I turned off “Lightbox” in the theme options, the lightbox from the theme and from the plugin are fighting each other.

    I found this topic in the support section of OneDesigns (http://www.onedesigns.com/support/topic/gallery) and followed the instructions there but to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?

    Cheers,
    Dylan

    If you’re using a custom plugin it’s the plugin’s fault the lightbox is not loading, not the theme’s. Usually this happens when 2 JavaScript libraries conflict. Check the source code to see if it loads 2 instances of jQuery for example.
