lightbox not working

Same problem here! Not happy!

Why are you installing IW Magnific Popup? Maxgalleria 3.11 has the magnific popup library include in it and there are no instructions to install IW Magnific Popup. After updating to the new version you should check the new settings that are available for galleries and make adjustments as needed.

Please deactivate the IW Magnific Popup plugin.

If the popup is not working for your site after updating please post a link to your gallery so we can try to determine what is going on with the javascript libraries currently running at your site.

Hi Alan,
Thanks for your reply. The MaxGalleria message that is included at the top of WP when you update says this:

Attention: Maxgalleria 3.1 now uses Magnific Popup for lightboxes. Please check you galleries after upgrading. The Image Carousel Add-on requires updating to use with this new version.

Perhaps that message needs to be clearer, with a link to instructions on where this is included, or what changes need to be made to our settings. I haven’t been able to see where this is in your plugin, so assumed it was an external plugin that I needed to use (and there happens to be one very similar). I used to use Responsive Lightbox which is an external plugin.

Can you direct me to where in your plugin the options are to include this? I’ve deactivated, but my galleries still don’t have any advance to next image options. I’m not using image carousel on this site.

Thank you!

germars,

The lightbox is working ok. Now to get the arrows I have gone into Galleries->Settings and checked Gallery Enabled (Displays previous and next navigation arrows). and to make it easy to close the lightbox I have checked Close Content on Click Enabled and Close on Background Click Enabled. Because I changes Settings all galleries using the lightbox will have these same settings unless you override them in the option tab of a particular gallery.

If this solves your issue thanks in advance for marking this thread as ‘Resolved’ so we know your question has been answered and for giving us and our plugin a rating at Maxgalleria Reviews

Hi Alan,

Thank you for that. I appreciate your help. Perhaps for future updates (or if you can change the message) it would be good to have this change somewhere in the message or a link on your site. The mention of the lightbox just confused me. (maybe only me)

thanks again, I will certainly close this thread and give a good rating!

Hi Alan, I will write you a private message.
