Does Lighbox integration require additional files?

adultphotos4u · April 29th, 2008, 12:38 AM

Hi everyone,

From the past few days I am trying to make the lightbox work but don't know why it would always popup a new window.

I have set the following options:

Show Photo Options:
Use popup window for BIG images? - Yes
Use lightbox integration? - Yes
Width to trigger lightbox integration (if enabled)? - 500 (also tried 800, 900, 1000)
Height to trigger lightbox integration (if enabled)? - 500 (also tried 800, 900, 1000)

Upload Photo Options:
Max allowable image width in pixels - 2400
Max allowable image height in pixels - 1600
Trigger medium graphic height and width - 500 (also tried 800, 1000)

I also ran a Check DB with all the options enabled except watermark. But still no good.

I also did a search in the forums and everywhere I found the reference to the settings but no reference to if any additional resources are required.

I will highly appreciate if someone can share how they have been able to get to lighbox?

Ok, looks like its working but not sure what wrong happens with it. Sometimes it displays a light box, sometimes a popup window, sometimes in a blank page and sometimes in the same page.

Any clues...?

Try using 1500 1500

Basically if you dont have the lightbox triggers high enough to use on a big photo it will be the popup window not lightbox.

Thats the problem if you set it to 500 your saying all images under that size use lightbox

hense my comment to try 900 or 1500

I am having a bit of trouble too.

I have used 2000 2000 and 200 200...
Nothing makes the lightbox code kick in.

well I dont have any issues in 6.23 with it. You can send us an email through the contact us link with admin login and url if you want us to look at it

Chuck..

It's me! :-) You have admin right already...

Chuck S · November 28th, 2009, 10:08 AM

LOL its you? I dont remember peoples sites off the top of my head since I deal with lots of customers. I guess I will have to go through threads. Reason I say 6.23 because I dont think 7.0 has lightbox.

Hmm...
Aquia Creek Photo Album - Aquia Creek Gallery

If you say 7.0 doesn't have lightbox - that's cool...
It is an option in the admin, however...

yeah I asked Michael why he removed it in 7.0. Now I believe you have uncovered a bug personally $useimagelink is not defined if bigpopup is turned off which is a problem and it should defined. Try editing showphoto.php and find this. This will also add back lightbox

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

replace it with

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

I have tested this addition and seems to work just fine

Missing files...

Chuck those fixes actually did correct the light box functionality.
However I noticed a few images missing with 404 errors when the lightbox activated.

Starting from root

/images/loading.gif
/images/closelabel.gif

and strange call to:
/gallery/stylesheets/images/blank.gif?

I have uploaded the pictures here

You can modify your lightbox.js file and place full urls to those images.
