Hello,

I am using WP Video Lightbox version 1.9.4. I’ve updated wordpress to 5.8.3 and now I see 2 things (second may be a side effect of the first).

Plugin code looks like: [video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id="13562192" width="640" height="480" anchor="click here to open vimeo video"]

The result is that the lightbox does show from the anchor and the video does play, but after the anchor it displays some garbage:

click here to open vimeo video /* <![CDATA[ */ jQuery(document).ready(function($){ $(function(){ var width = $(window).innerWidth(); var setwidth = 640; var ratio = 0.75; var height = 480; var link = 'https://vimeo.com/258645556?width=640&height=480'; if(width */

(basically everything from <![CDATA on is junk)

The second issue is that only one video shortcode is visible per page/post. If I add a second shortcode it doesn’t display. I would bet this is a side effect from the above, something isn’t closed.

Currently this is on my dev site which isn’t accessible outside my firewall.

@sholt@create2thrive.com, Are you using a plugin to minify HTML? Please provide a link to the page where you are using the video lightbox shortcode.
