I was using the free version of Lightbox and it worked great. I just download Lightbox Ultimate and I can’t get anything to work. I tried copying your code exactly how t is in your PDF documentation and it does not work. Below are two links to show you what I am seeing.
[https://www.eliproject.org/connect-groups/] – Light Box Free – Works Perfectly
[https://www.eliproject.org/connect-groups-2/] – Light Box Ultimate – can’t figure out what is happening.
Now what I am trying to figure out is how to get the video to autoplay and to hide the title and player controls. This was very simple with the free version, but does not seem to function the same way with the ultimate version.
Hi, They are two different shortcodes. The “Shortcode Parameter Reference” section explains how can customize the parameters:
Which shortcode are you using for the video lightbox plugin?
I understand there are two different shortcodes. If I cope your exact code to embed a video with anchor text it does not work.
[wp_lightbox_ultimate_youtube_video_embed videoid=”YIW5oo-8NYw” playlist=””
width=”500″ height=”400″ hd=”0″ autoplay=”0″ display_control=”1″ fullscreen=”1″
autohide=”2″ theme=”dark” use_https=”” enable_privacy=”” show_logo=”1″
showinfo=”1″ auto_popup=”” direct_embed=”” anchor_type=”text” text=”click here to
open the youtube video” source=””]
You can see what I mean by visiting [https://www.eliproject.org/connect-groups-2/]
However your free version which I used the following short code for worked great, but I need the video to be responsive which the reason I upgraded.
<a class=”large radius button blue”[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=”RO_uYwnCROA&rel=0;show_logo=0;showinfo=0;show_logo=0;controls=0;fullscreen=1″ width=”640″ height=”480″ anchor=”Watch Video”]

prettyPhoto shortcode is also available in our Ultimate version. It works better than the video lightbox one:
The page URL that you shared is empty. Have you removed the shortcode? On a https site you need to specify
use_https="1"in the shortcode. Otherwise, YouTube will not allow your site to load the video. If you want to automatically play the video, you need to specifyautoplay="1". For example:[wp_lightbox_ultimate_youtube_video_embed videoid=”YIW5oo-8NYw” playlist=””
width=”500″ height=”400″ hd=”0″ autoplay=”1″ display_control=”1″ fullscreen=”1″
autohide=”2″ theme=”dark” use_https=”1″ enable_privacy=”” show_logo=”1″
showinfo=”1″ auto_popup=”” direct_embed=”” anchor_type=”text” text=”click here to
open the youtube video” source=””]
I have added the short code and the video works however it does not show the text in my button like the free version.
[https://www.eliproject.org/connect-groups/] – free version…works great
<a class=”large radius button blue”[video_lightbox_youtube video_id=”RO_uYwnCROA&rel=0;show_logo=0;showinfo=0;show_logo=0;controls=1;fullscreen=1″ width=”640″ height=”480″ anchor=”Watch Video”]
[https://www.eliproject.org/connect-groups-2/] – paid version, text shows to the right of the blue box.
