Use WP Lightbox 2 to display a single image?

    I have a very simple goal that’s proven very difficult to execute.

    I want to enlarge single photos on my WordPress page using WP Lightbox 2, but I don’t want them navigating to other photos with previous/next buttons.

    I noticed another member, “Sandstar,” posted this question about a year ago, but the topic has been closed to replies, and there is nothing on that thread.

    Does anyone know if this is possible? Or, is this display-one-photo-at-a-time application something you need to get the premium version of WP Lightbox 2 to pull off?

    Thanks.

    OMG, this is surprising!
    I’ve just spent the past half an hour trying to make this plug in to just that. It didn’t even occur to me that the developer hadn’t built such basic functionality into the plugin.
    I’ve had to look for another lightbox plugin to achieve it.

    Dear Vin,

    Contact us at [email protected], maybe we can help you.

    Hi

    I needed this functionality as well. To get around WP-Lightbox-2 placing images in a gallery, I used something like.

    rel="lightbox[<?php echo $uniqueIdentifier; ?>]"

    This essentially will create a 1 image lightbox gallery.

    Dear users, we will add this functionality on next update.

    Hope for you patience.

    Thanks for the code, but it’s not working for me when I plug it in on the page. Is there a specific place where I should insert it?

    grizzlyhawk2000:

    This is how I am using it within my project.

    <a href="<?php echo get_field('image', $advert->ID)['sizes']['large']; ?>" rel="lightbox[<?php echo $advert->ID; ?>]" ><img src="<?php echo get_field('image', $advert->ID)['sizes']['thumbnail']; ?>" /></a>

    Hard to say why it doesn’t work for you without seeing some code.
