Using Lightbox Plus | Video Tutorial

Sadly, the developers rarely help on this forum. When I find a developer who helps and actually responds, I immediately send him some money and let him or her know that I will be telling all my friends and everyone on every forum. And I do!!

THE SECOND that I find a replacement for Lightbox they will not see me for the smoke. Their help is nonexistent.

think I am missing the point… followed the video but the image is just shown as a regular link to the image, no light box at all. Also could not find where lightbox settings are… baffled

I have a unique situation and am hoping someone can help. I need to launch several different sets of images from a single page. I need these to be on a link the “Click here to view…”. I am able to get the lightbox to open up, but it has all my images and not just the ones I want for that particular “click here”. Does any of this make any sense? What makes all of this so difficult is that I have to launch the lightbox from within an html field in a Gravity Forms form. I’ve been to https://www.jacklmoore.com/colorbox/, viewed the source of this page and tried my best to compare the source from his page to what’s in my wordpress site. To me, the differences in the css only look cosmetic, like different heights and widths and things like that. I compared the js, but am not as adept at js as css. But, still doesn’t look all that different. I’ve added `<script type=”text/javascript”>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(“.groupDesigns”).colorbox({rel:’groupDesigns’});
$(“.groupFont3”).colorbox({rel:’groupFont3′});
$(“.groupFontT”).colorbox({rel:’groupFontT’});
$(“.groupBreedLogos”).colorbox({rel:’groupBreedLogos’});
});
</script>` to the header and that made the lighbox work, but picks up all the images and not just the ones I want like in the example. URL to the site is https://dancingbayembroidery.com/store/store/saddle-pads/roma-minquilt-dressage/ and to get to the area of the form, check Left (Mounting) side and then from Type of Personalization, select either 3 Letter Monogram or Design.

Any ideas how to make this work. I know it’s possible because he does it on his example pages.

I found some great tutorials about Lightbox Plus on youtube. Search Philip Gledhill lightbox plus or go to this link. They are really good and easy to follow. Unfortunately, my situation is unique and though they helped me some, didn’t answer all my questions.
