Lightbox – Display external page not responsive

[sraghun]

We are using WP Lightbox Ultimate on a site, and displaying videos using the display_external_page option for the shortcode (see example below). You can find an example of the video on [http://makingitbetter-cms.tv/making-it-better-initiative/] (click on the big picture).

We have noticed that using the shortcode in this method is not responsive. We are using it to display videos from Bits on the Run. Is there any way to make this responsive? We really need to have videos resize properly, especially for iPhones and tablets.

Here is the shortcode for the video in the example:

[wp_lightbox_display_external_page link=”/botr/botr.php?v=9qrx6Cwu” width=”656″ height=”496″ title=”CMS Shared Vision” source=”http://makingitbetter-cms.tv/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/shared_vision.jpg”%5D

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hi, we have recently made some changes to the external page display shortcode. Please install a fresh copy of Lightbox Ultimate and see how it goes:

I’ve installed the newest version of WP Lightbox Ultimate. From what I can tell, display_external_page now uses the Fancybox library, correct?

In addition, it seems that the box itself will now resize, but not the content, which is clipped. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Hi, yes we have upgraded the library. Well, the shortcode was made to display any external page in lightbox. But in your case you are trying to resize something that’s inside the page. And the plugin is not aware of whatever is inside it.

However, if the video inside the page is responsive there is a good chance that it will also resize dynamically along with the page. What embed code are you using?
