    I’ve tested Lightbox Ultimate on several sites and all seem to work fine…except of course on the one that I NEED it to work on.

    When I click on the image, it opens the complete video page in Vimeo instead of opening in a lightbox.

    I see only one line in the source that loads JQuery

    <script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.josh.org/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.7.1'></script>

    I don’t think it is my shortcode, because it works in several other sites without a problem.

    I have WordPress 3.3.2 and WP Lightbox Ultimate version 1.7.0. I’ve tested in Chrome (OSX) and IE (Windows).

    You can see my test page here.

    Hi, Does your theme have a footer? Some additional JavaScript codes are also required for the lightbox to work (The plugin includes them in the footer so they don’t affect your page load time). But I don’t see them anywhere on that page.

    Please take a look at the following article. It explains everything about using a properly coded WordPress Theme:

    THANK YOU.

    This solved half of my problem. As soon as I added the wp_footer hook, all of the libraries started working except PrettyPhoto.

    You’ll see that I have added the same video with three different Lightbox libraries. The client would really like to use PrettyPhoto.

    The shortcode is the same as is working on other sites.

    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video link=”http://vimeo.com/40195115&#8243; description=”Undaunted Trailer” source=”http://www.josh.org/wp-content/uploads/middleright2.jpg&#8221; title=”Undaunted Trailer”]

    You’ll see that it dims the page and tries to load the video, but never actually loads it.

    Thanks again.

    Hi, I don’t think you have that shortcode embedded anymore. Please embed that shortcode so I can see what happens when I click it.
