I just purchased the Lightbox Ultimate and as soon as I activate it I get the loading icon in the middle of all of my web pages. The only way I can get it to go away is to deactivate the plugin.
May 12, 2017 at 2:18 am #75661wpCommerceModeratorHi, Do you have any other lightbox plugin activated on your site? Please provide a link to the page in question so I can take a look.
May 12, 2017 at 11:44 am #75662dcroweMemberYes, I have the free version of WP Video Lightbox but I still get the icon even when it is deactivated. I am hesitant to leave Lightbox Ultimate activated as the icon is on all pages and can be distracting to users. I do have Easy Fancybox installed and activated but I have the Enable Fancybox unchecked in Lightbox Ultimate. I’ve also deactivated Easy Fancybox plugin and I still get the icon.
May 13, 2017 at 11:06 am #75663wpCommerceModeratorPlease provide a link to the page in question so I can take a closer look.
May 13, 2017 at 2:33 pm #75664dcroweMemberOkay, if I deactivate Easy Fancybox, NextGEN gallery and WP Video Lightbox, I don’t get the loading icon. The settings in Lightbox Ultimate don’t seem to have any effect on this. I can have them checked or unchecked and I still have the problem.
[https://westviewdance.ca] is the site but I cannot leave the Lightbox Ultimate activated because it impacts all of the pages not just pages which have video on them.
May 13, 2017 at 5:58 pm #75665dcroweMemberI’ve also found that when I activate Lightbox Ultimate, none of my pop-ups that I use with Easy fancybox work (even ones that have a table or text in them). This makes it difficult to leave Lightbox Ultimate activated for any length of time.
Is it possible to arrange a mutually agreeable time as to when I can activate it so that you are able to look at it in a short time period?
May 14, 2017 at 4:51 am #75666wpCommerceModeratorThanks. Your easy fancybox plugin is using a very older version of fancybox (at least 6 years old). So you cannot keep that plugin activated with Lightbox ultimate.

I’m not sure if the NextGEN gallery is also using fancybox. It so it needs to be disabled as well.
Which Lightbox Ultimate shortcode are you using?
May 14, 2017 at 11:27 am #75667dcroweMemberI’m trying to use this shortcode
[wp_lightbox_anchor_text_mp4_video link=”http://www.example.com/h264-encoded-video.mp4″
width=”640″ height=”480″ title=”title goes here” text=”click here to open the video” autoplay=”false”]
So can you suggest another fancybox which can display maps and tables in a fancybox which will work with Lightbox Ultimate?
May 14, 2017 at 12:49 pm #75668dcroweMemberI guess I should have done a little more digging. I see that I can use Ultimate lightbox to do what I need by using an Inline HTML Display shortcode.
May 15, 2017 at 5:09 am #75669wpCommerceModeratorOur MP4 and inline shortcodes require fancybox. Were you able to disable the library in the conflicting plugin? With our inline shortcode you should be able to display any custom content in lightbox.
May 15, 2017 at 2:50 pm #75670dcroweMemberWell – Yes and No. I was using Easy Fancybox for inline display of Google maps and tables. The only way that I can get Ultimate Lightbox to work was to deactivate Easy Fancybox. I was hoping that I could use Ultimate Lightbox to take over this work and it did, partly. I can use the Ultimate Lightbox Inline shortcodes to display tables and text but I also want to be able to display a Google map (WP Google Map Pro) in a fancybox which I can’t seem to get Ultimate Lightbox to do. I have some code to make this possible using Easy Fancybox but that code doesn’t work with Ultimate Lightbox.
May 16, 2017 at 4:36 am #75671wpCommerceModeratorYou are using a WordPress plugin to integrate Google maps with Easy fancybox? Why don’t you directly use the iframe embed code for Google maps?
May 16, 2017 at 6:14 pm #75672dcroweMemberOkay, I got the map to display in the fancybox in the way that I want but I can’t see how to make the text anchor show up at the end of a line. It wants to drop down and be on the line below.
example:
123 anystreet, anytown (See Map)
I want the (See Map) to be the Text that triggers the fancybox to display.
May 17, 2017 at 9:25 am #75673wpCommerceModeratorWhat is your inline shortcode? Please provide a link to the exact page so I can take a look.
May 17, 2017 at 3:38 pm #75674dcroweMemberI finally got it to work. Here is what I did.
‘<div style=”display: inline; text-align: center; font-size: 38px;”>101 MacDonald Road, Oak Bluff, MB [wp_lightbox_ultimate_inline_content_embed div_id=”map1″ anchor_type=”text” text=” (See Map)” source=”” auto_popup=”false”]</div>
<div id=”map1″ style=”width: 700px; height: 620px; font-size: 10px; display: none;”>[wpgmza id=”1″] Maps courtesy of WP Google Maps
<a href="https://www.wpgmaps.com">https://www.wpgmaps.com</a>
</div>’I also modified the custom css file with the following:
‘/* The following CSS class will add styling to the lightbox shortcodes with the “anchor text” only*/
.lightbox_ultimate_text_anchor
{
display:inline;
}’
The question is do I need to have the “display: inline” in both the custom css file as well as in the shortcode? Or do I need them at all?
