Lightbox Ultimate – Shortcode for Anchor Image does not display the Anchor Image

[peter777]

I am trying to incude the “Vimeo Video Lightbox Overlay Popup” on a post. I have added the “Shortcode for Anchor Image”. I have replace the default Vimeo URL with the Vimeo URL I want and have added the source URL for the image I want to appear on the page. When I update and view my post the image does not appear, All I get is a double quote mark followed by the first word of the title. This text acts as a link and this link does op[en the video in a lightbox. But of course I would prefer to see the image and for the image to act as the video link.

The code I included is:

[wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video link=”http://vimeo.com/33734464″ width=870 height=500 description=”Transcendental Meditation in Action” source=”http://tmmeditationlondon.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/tm-in-action-300px.jpg” title=”Transcendental Meditation in Action”]

Can you post a link to the page containing the problem?

the ost address is http://www.t-m.org.uk/meditation-news/2011/12/transcendental-meditation-an-effective-antidote-to-rising-stress-levels-in-schools/#!prettyPhoto

Go to the bottom of the post and the video link is “Transcendental-Meditation-in-Action” . This should not be a text link, but an image link.

I think your theme might be messing things up here.

For instance, you appear to have a few javascript errors on this page:

Uncaught ReferenceError: Shadowbox is not defined

Hi, There is something wrong with the HTML source of the shortcode. If you use that shortcode it should look like the following:

<div class="lightbox_ultimate_anchor lightbox_ultimate_image_anchor ">

<a title="Transcendental Meditation in Action" href="http://vimeo.com/33734464?width=870&height=500" rel="wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto"><img src="http://tmmeditationlondon.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/tm-in-action-300px.jpg" alt="Transcendental Meditation in Action"/></a>

</div>

Whereas the one you are using looks like the following:

<div class="lightbox_ultimate_anchor lightbox_ultimate_image_anchor ">

<a title=""Transcendental-Meditation-in-Action"" href=""http://vimeo.com/33734464"?width=870&height=500" rel="wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto"><img src=""http://tmmeditationlondon.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/tm-in-action-300px.jpg"" alt=""Transcendental-Meditation-in-Action""/></a>

</div>

It’s converting all the double quotes (“) to “&quat;”.

Please switch to the “visual” editor and use the exact shortcode from here:

[wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video link="http://vimeo.com/33734464" width="870" height="500" description="Transcendental Meditation in Action" source="http://tmmeditationlondon.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/tm-in-action-300px.jpg" title="Transcendental Meditation in Action"]

Let me know how it goes.
