My host is Bluehost, It came with a backup plugin for the first year, but would only backup to themselves, not offsite. So, hence I’m looking for an alternative. I’m really after a point & click service. I think I’d do more damage than good trying to use code scripts!
After a few hours of trial and error i finally got working what i needed to… I found a plugin called Simple Lightbox. As you recommended, i use the link to media option.. So now when i open the image i get the left/right arrows etc.
