This is just an update. As mentioned above, I use child themes in WP 3.5 in combination with the twenty twelve theme. I couldn’t figure out why easy fancybox or other lightboxes would not work. So I got to tinkering with the images in my posts.

I edited the image link to “link to image” This is the same setting as set to “media file” vrs (attachment page) when uploading an image.

So to sum it up, if your images are set to the attachment page in the upload section, the lightboxs won’t work. Set link to image so it calls from wp-content instead of your catagory/post page (whatever it’s called can’t remember) If it is NOT set to media (wp-content) then you only target another window when the image is clicked on. If the image link is set to the image/media file, the lightbox will display it. You can see how it works even with child themes and using tewnty twelve here:

It must be a custom theme thing. It’s not working and I’m using a custom child theme I made, instead of a new theme altogether. Easy fancybox won’t work.

I see. Geeze I can’t believe this mistake!

Thanks again. I’m sure I won’t forget this lesson:)

That Worked! I don’t understand why mine didn’t. I thought this /* */ was how it is supposed to be done.,. go figure

Thanks

My child theme is working properly. I want to use a new page template. Not post or catagory or anything else.

thanks

p.s I don’t want to create one from scratck. Just make some simple edits to page.php, rename and store in my child theme directory

Yea I had already thought of that. It didn’t work. I even installed wordpress into a new directory on my site and grabbed the twentytwelve page.php and renamed it, made the same edits and put in my child theme directory. That didn’t work either.

??

Oh yea. When I deactivate, everything with media insert works correctly.

It didn’t go anywhere. It has been renamed to text.
