Lightbox not working

Wulf · February 18th, 2012, 01:05 PM

It used to work fine but it stopped working. When you click on an image, it opens the full image in the next page (not a seperate popup window).

All settings appear to be right:

Use lightbox integration? Yes
Width to trigger lightbox integration (if enabled)? 1280
Height to trigger lightbox integration (if enabled)? 1024

Save and display medium and large images? Yes

I recently re-uploaded all the files from the latest PP 8 Gold version (was running a RC) but I am (almost) sure lightbox was working fine after that.

I was looking at this thread but couldn't reply there:

Interesting there are two examples of PP8 sites with lightbox working. Maybe a java conflict on your site? You using any mods hacks?

Nothing I can think of. Haven't made any changes recently besides re-uploading the latest PP files.

Found the problem. My error..

I had to update the relative paths for the Close and Loading images in the lightbox.js file again after uploading the new files and there was a typo.

vvar fileLoadingImage = "http://saabworld.net/gallery/images/loading.gif";
var fileBottomNavCloseImage = "http://saabworld.net/gallery/images/closelabel.gif";

All is good again. Thanks for checking. As soon as you mentioned Java, the little lightbulb turned on above my head.

So yes a java conflict your java was corrupt. That makes sense why it was not working.

Does the path have to be the full path, right now mine says /images/loading.gif and /images/closelabel.gif.... It is not finding the images...

Hello

I have the same Problem.
After upgrading to the latest PP8.11 Lightbox stopped working.

I can`t find this two Code Lines for the Images in my lightbox.js ?
Did you change the Code ?

Settings in AdminCP did not change after Upgrade.

Any Idea ???
Check my Site here.

regards
Michael

The lines are there although different. I would have to see your issue as lightbox does work.

Well, for example check this Picture. Before the update Lightbox worked with it, now it opens in a window.

try this file and see

Sorry, this (older?) .js File does also not work.

It took now serveral hours for testing: I`m fed off with this Crap..
For me as Costumer it`s not possible to understand why a Feature like Lightbox isn`t working anymore after an simple Software Update.

Chuck, you may say that you are not supporting such Third-Party-Things like Lightbox: Then it might be better to keep it totally out of your Software !

Little angry, but best regards!

You need to make sure you download the latest software and upload all the files except the 2 config files and follow any upgrade steps depending on what version you are actually running.

We released 8.12
