    Hi, I loved your Video Lightbox plugin. I purchased Lightbox Ultimate with the intention of using it for a YouTube playlist, however, I haven’t had success in getting it to display like the basic Video Lightbox plugin with automatic video thumbnail. Is it possible? And if so, could you send me the shortcode?

    Here is the shortcode I used for the basic plugin – [video_lightbox_youtube video_id=”Ibz6CyvKH7k” width=”640″ height=”480″ auto_thumb=”1″]

    Many thanks!

    Hi, it’s actually a video lightbox shortcode. Please use the following shortcode which will work with Lightbox Ultimate plugin:

    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video link="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ibz6CyvKH7k" width="640" height="480" auto_thumb="1"]

    You can find all the Lightbox Ultimate shortcodes on our documentation page:

    Thanks! But how would I get it to work with a playlist? I tried these shortcodes, but neither work.

    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video link=”http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwpIhcP1Fqo7GS5kKN8QPB2Sk87WuRMxt” width=”640″ height=”480″ auto_thumb=”1″]

    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video video_id=”” playlist=”PLwpIhcP1Fqo7GS5kKN8QPB2Sk87WuRMxt” width=”640″ height=”480″ auto_thumb=”1″]

    If you wish to play a YouTube playlist in lightbox you will need to use our advanced YouTube shortcode:
