Ultimate Lightbox problems when using eStore.

[robhafley]

I use the default eStore lightbox to display my products and it works great (fancy 2). In another (non store) area of my site I am trying to display some other items using Ultimate Lightbox because I love the different settings, but when I enable the fancybox, lightbox special, or prettyphoto in the plugin’s library setting it conflicts with my store products and causes the product thumbnail to pop up in TWO different lightboxes. Any workaround for this?

Can you please post a link to the page where you are having the issue?

I’ll post a link as soon as I get some things configured because I haven’t published my site yet but I did go back to recheck my settings and I found that the problem only occurs when “lightbox special” is enabled…not in the others as I posted earlier.

I think it’s because Lightbox Special is using the same “rel” attribute that eStore uses to trigger the popup effect. Can you please keep the “Enable Lightbox effect on Images” option unchecked from eStore General Settings? That way they won’t conflict with each other.

I found another option that seems to work. I removed the “jquery.lightbox-0.5.pack.js” file from the eStore plugin library and the store now uses the Ultimate Lightbox “WP Lightbox Special” which looks better to me that the default lightbox in eStore. I’m sure there’s a better way to accomplish this but it does work.

Nice to hear that you got it working

Hi there,

I dont seem to be able to find the place to post a separate thread. Only a reply to an existing one. I am trialing the lightbox ‘light’ version and i can’t see the thumbnail, only the play button – even though I’ve entered the correct shortcode (I think!):

[video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id=88339548 width=400 height=225 auto_thumb=”1″]

Any clues as to what i am doing wrong? Thanks

@Louisa, is it a private video?

[Louisa]

No, it’s hidden from Vimeo but anyone with the link can see it. thanks,

Louisa

Does it work if you uncheck the “hide this video from vimeo.com” option? Please provide a link to the page in question so I can take a look.
