About
As the name shows, this is just WordPress’s version of the jQuery Lightbox Plugin written by balupton, perfectly working with WordPress 2.2 or up, and fully compatible with K2!
Instructions
Just download the plugin, unzip the files to the wp-content\plugins folder and activate the plugin in WordPress options.
Then, every time you want to use the Lightbox effect, just place a link to the image, and add the rel=”lightbox” attribute to it, in order to activate the effect when the link is clicked. You can also use rel=”lightbox-album” replacing album by a any keyword to group some pictures on an album!
Sample
Click the image bellow!
HTML code sample:
<a href="image.png" title="Image Title" rel="lightbox"><img src="image_thumbnail.png" alt="Image Title" /></a>
Regards
Original version of jQuery Lightbox Plugin developed by Balupton.

Answers to a few things people have been looking for:
A. How do you remove the text in the upper-right corner
B. How do you make the bottom text always show instead of just on hover
C. How do you remove the download link
Step 1. (for A, B, and C). Open the jquery-lightbox.php file and at line 25 change jquery.lightbox.min.js to jquery.lightbox.js then on line 26 change jquery.lightbox.plugin.min.js to jquery.lightbox.plugin.js
Step 2 (for A). Go to lines 634 and 635 and change the word from true to null.
Step 3 (for B). Go to lines 636 and 637 and change ‘auto’ to true. Unlike step 2 there are single quote marks on each side of the word auto. Make sure you remove them as well or it won’t work.
Step 4. (for C). Go to line 632 and change the word true to null.
I want to offer my sincerest thanks to you Pedro and all who have contributed to this project. It really is the perfect enhancement to NextGen Gallery.
Sorry. I forgot something. The file you are editing for steps 2,3,4 is jquery-lightbox.js
Great info, Michael! Thank you!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ve searched high and low trying to figure out how to have the info auto show all the time. It never dawned on me to try true without the quotes! Thanks again!
Hey! Great plugin. Suggestions/problems and questions:
1) Pictures in my older posts contain images in [caption] blocks, automatically created by the WordPress editor. Now I added the rel=”lightbox”:
[caption ...... caption="caption string"][/caption]
Is it possible to let the plugin automaticcaly extract the “caption string” either from the caption or from the img tag and put it as title of the download link or as a caption below the image?
2) I don’t like the “Untitled” default. Perhaps one should just omit the whole title string in this case? If there is no title available, but the download link should be existing, then the link should have a name as e.g. “download”. In essence, there is no need to put the word “Untitled” anywhere.
3) After changing the .js content — how to minimize it again to .min.js? Which tool do I have to use for this?
4) What is the meaning of the options `show_info` and `show_extended_info`?
5) I would like to be able to completely deactivate the bar at the bottom of the image, which dynamically changes in dependence of mouse movement. Therefore, I tried to use the following options:
download_link: false,
show_helper_text: false,
show_linkback: false,
show_info: false,
show_extended_info: false,
but the bar is still appearing. Could you add an option to deactivate it?
6) I played around with the `speed` option and decreased it from 400 to 10, because I would like to have a faster “popping up” effect. But my feeling is that it did not change the effect speed; it is as “slow” as before.
This is what came to my mind after playing around with the plugins for some minutes.. sorry if I missed something!
All the best,
Jan-Philip Gehrcke
I have tried to install this plugin to my car pictures blog but i couldnt find a way to use it.. I hope some one can translate it for turkish otherwise i wouldnt use it
I have jquery loading as part of my custom theme/template, and I don’t need lightbox to load a second instance or jquery. How can I make it so this plugin doesn’t load jquery?
Greetings Brian, that should only happen if you’re using an earlier version than WordPress 2.8; please check the your WP version and if the problem continues, add a support ticket at http://getsatisfaction.com/balupton/products/balupton_jquery_lightbox please!
