    You are using the prettyPhoto shortcode but I don’t see the following function defined anywhere on that page:

    $("a[rel^='wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto']").prettyPhoto()

    Until this function is defined lightbox won’t get triggered. And this is happening because your theme doesn’t have the wp_footer() call.

    Please switch to the default WordPress theme (example: twenty ten) to see what I’m talking about.

    hi

    reg footer

    this is my footer.php code

    ======================<?php

    /**

    * Footer Template

    *

    * The footer template is generally used on every page of your site. Nearly all other

    * templates call it somewhere near the bottom of the file. It is used mostly as a closing

    * wrapper, which is opened with the header.php file. It also executes key functions needed

    * by the theme, child themes, and plugins.

    *

    * @package Hybrid

    * @subpackage Template

    */

    ?>

    <?php do_atomic( ‘after_container’ ); // hybrid_after_container ?>

    </div><!– #container –>

    <div id=”footer-container”>

    <?php do_atomic( ‘before_footer’ ); // hybrid_before_footer ?>

    <div id=”footer”>

    <?php //get_sidebar(‘Footer Widget’); //get the sidebar ?>

    <?php do_atomic( ‘footer’ ); // hybrid_footer ?>

    </div><!– #footer –>

    <?php do_atomic( ‘after_footer’ ); // hybrid_after_footer ?>

    </div><!– #footer-container –>

    </div><!– #body-container –>

    <?php do_atomic( ‘after_html’ ); // hybrid_after_html ?>

    <?php wp_footer(); // wp_footer ?>

    </body>

    </html>

    =============================

    hence i have a wp_footer()

    secondly,

    If i use any other popup like fancy box it generates this code

    uery(document).ready(function($){

    $(function(){

    $(‘div#wplu50b71b4063ce8’).hide();

    $(“a[rel=wp_lightbox_flowplayer_video_rel_wplu50b71b4063ce8]”).fancybox({

    ‘type’ : ‘inline’,

    ‘href’ : ‘#wplu50b71b4063ce8’,

    ‘scrolling’ : ‘no’,

    ‘showCloseButton’: 1,

    ‘transitionIn’ : ‘elastic’,

    ‘transitionOut’ : ‘elastic’,

    ‘titleShow’ : 1,

    ‘titlePosition’ : ‘outside’,

    ‘overlayOpacity’ : 0.3,

    onStart:function(){

    $(‘div#wplu50b71b4063ce8’).show();

    So if this also goes into footer, then this shouldnt come up as well. how is this one working fine where are prettyphoto doesnt work. i deactivated all my plugins to check if its messing.. but none!!!

    i dont know where to go from here…

    It’s because that code is coming from our new shortcode. It’s also specific to a single shortcode whereas the prettyPhoto code works for all the prettyPhoto shortcodes.

    Did you try switching to the twenty ten WordPress theme? That way we will know if something else is causing this issue.

    hi,

    I finally solved the issue. Disabled all the plugins and it worked. It was hybrid hook plugin which was causing the problem. Unexpected from a plugin create by justin. anyways justin & you helped me solve the issue.

    I thank you for the support.

    Just another small issue. I suddenly dont see the play button embedded on the images anymore. it used to be there.

    Not all of them. Your YouTube video (using prettyPhoto shortcode) is working fine. However, you are using a mp4 video in one of the prettyPhoto shortcodes. None of our prettyPhoto shortcodes can play mp4 video. You will have to use a different shortcode for that (MP4 Video Display section):

    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wp-affiliate-link-manager/wp-content/uploads/wp-lightbox-stuff/docs/wp-lightbox-ultimate-shortcodes-by-library-type.pdf

    In the documentation each shortcode has a title and a short description. This is so users know what type media that particular shortcode can pop up and how you can use different parameters to customize it.

    hi.

    thanks for reply.

    Yes as far as playing videos is concerned all are working fine. even mp4 is working fine. earlier when i had installed ultimate, i used to get a play button over the image so people wud know that there is a video hidden in there. but now it doesnt show. So until and unless you click on it, you wont know there is a video.

    I will look thru the link you provided me also in the mean time to find a solution for it.

    Lightbox Ultimate doesn’t have any option to show a play button on the anchor image. Did you use your own CSS to customize the image?

    You can easily customize it by specifying the class name in the shortcode:

    Hi with a minimum of fuss I had the Lightbox Ultimate player configured and working fine in WordPress from a .php theme template (using a call) page and also directly from a html page.

    However, as of yesterday now its not working and instead of the lightbox it delivers the click to the landing on the Vimeo page… [www.on24.com/careers] can you say if theres a script or something blocking/disabling playback? Thanks for the help.
