Disable or Override simple colorbox for 1 image

Eek, that’s going to be a bit tricky I think.

You would need to use JavaScript to specifically disable it for that one image. I don’t know of an easy way to do that though unfortunately.

Thanks, I didn’t find an javascript with super clear instructions so I used “Options Optimizer,” a great tool.

I figured out a better way.
Options Optimizer worked inconsistently.

If you want to disable colorbox on a page I used the plugin Per Page Add to Head and hacked some code to get this. Works perfectly.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $("a").click(function(){
    $("a").removeClass("cboxElement");
  });
});
</script>

Thanks for reporting back with a solution ??

Your method will be loading jQuery twice on the same page. You probably found you needed to do that due to the one bundled with WordPress using non-conflict mode. You can work around that by removing the call to a fresh copy of jQuery and wrapping the code like this:

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
	$("a").click(function(){
		$("a").removeClass("cboxElement");
	});
});
</script>

I haven’t tested that ^. So if it doesn’t work, then I may have made a syntax error.

Thank you, My Javascript isn’t that strong so you really helped me out. I knew I shouldn’t have to “call” the ajax file but it didn’t work without it so your edit took care of it.
