Problem with version 1.6.3 of Video Lightbox (free version)

[wordpressdesign]

Amin, click on any video on this page [http://weightlossinthenews.com/category/videos/]

they open in the usual nice popup lightbox. This site has WPLightbox 1.6.1

Click on any video on this page [http://weightlosstalk.net/category/videos/]

unfortunately they open in a new window at Youtube. This site has WPLightbox 1.6.3

Other than the WPLightbox version these two sites are identical (one is the clone of the other on the same hosting).

I am using the free version of Lightbox so this is basically an FYI, I am not asking to get this fixed (any time soon

Hello wordpressdesign, I have tested both URL above in FireFox 26.0 and they both work. What browser are you using?

Hello wordpressdesign a new version has been released. You might want to try the latest version which is compatible with WordPress 3.8.

Kind regards

Hello mbrsolution,

I am also using Firefox 26 on a Mac with OS X 10.8.3 and all videos from this page [http://weightlosstalk.net/category/videos/] open in a new window at Youtube (not in the usual lightbox on site). I updated Lightbox to 1.6.4 and also tried Safari and Chrome, no luck same behaviour.

The only way for me to play videos onsite in the lightbox is to use Lightbox 1.6.1 as installed here [http://weightlossinthenews.com/category/videos/]

Thank you for taking time to check this issue, I hope it will be solved soon.

@wordpressdesign, I don’t see any video lightbox code on that page. Have you enabled prettyPhoto library in the video lightbox settings (Settings->Video Lightbox->prettyPhoto)?

It’s working now! I was used to Video Lightbox not having any settings (AFAIK versions up to to 1.6.1 do not have any settings) so I did not check under Settings>VideoLightbox and I couldn’t imagine that once installed & activated the plugin is disabled by default. Thanks!
