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.
I found that first time ( after loading ) repositioning does wrong, because main thread work fast and second repositioning holds in the reposition_failsafe, but options with true nHeight is lost and the second fire repositionBoxes make wrong calculations.
To fix the issue, option for second call of repositionBoxes should be stored.
I am adding reposition_options as class variable:
reposition_failsafe: false, // failsafe
reposition_options: {}, // saved options
and save the option in the repositionBoxes function:
if ( this.repositioning )
{ // Already here
this.reposition_failsafe = true;
this.reposition_options = options;
return null;
}
this.repositioning = true;
and
if ( $.Lightbox.reposition_failsafe )
{ // Fire again
$.Lightbox.repositioning = $.Lightbox.reposition_failsafe = false;
$.Lightbox.repositionBoxes($.Lightbox.reposition_options);
}
Hi,
When the initial image opens up, it is low on the screen. Then it gets in the correct position again. Can this be fixed so it opens in the correct position.
Cheers,

I have the same problem
Hi — I’m wondering if there is a way to have the info that gets displayed at the bottom of the images appear without having to mouse over the image first. I am using that info to describe each painting in a gallery and I’d like to to load when the image loads and stay up the entire time time the user is clicking thru images in a galllery.
Thanks so much
AJ
great plugin, but it is causing my footer to jump up to header just for Internet Explorer 7. It is working Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 ok. My theme is Arthemia Premium, How can I fix that?
Probably there is some incompatibility with your theme CSS… just send me an address where I can check the problem and I’ll see if I can help you!
Pedro,
Love the plugin and it’s flexibility. Great work.
I am having the same issue as James and Marnix from above. When the lightbox initially opens, it opens toward the bottom of my browser window, and ’sticks’. After the first time, it opens and sizes correctly. Any ideas?
You can see this issue here.

Thanks for the plugin… and appreciate any help.

Instructions say that you can use to group and display multiple images but it doesn’t say what else to do. Does “album” refer to the name of the directory the pictures are in? do you add album as in “album-01.jpg” to the file name? How does lightbox-album tell the plugin which pictures to group?
The lightbox sometimes takes a a few seconds to load after the page itself loads, if I click on a photo before it loads lightbox, it loads the photo on a separate page. Is there a way to make Lighbox load first, before the page?
Is it possible to add a link in the description of the image? So when you’ve clicked on the thumbnail. it opens up the large image and then at the bottom in the description, can some of the text link to an external file?
