WP Lightbox – FancyBox play button doesn't work with Vimeo

[natcreat]

Hi,

I am trying to use FancyBox with Vimeo popup video from an embedded image, but it’s not working.

Here’s the situation:

1. When I have only one video embedded on the page, everything works: The popup player appears and clicking the play button plays the video.

2. When there is more than one video embedded on the page, hovering my cursor over the play button of a player displays the tool tip “Previous.” The left navigation arrow also displays in the player window. That’s just not right!

3. Clicking the player’s play button causes Fancybox to switch to another Facnybox-embedded video on the page.

4. Additionally, hovering my cursor anywhere over the player window displays the words Run script “;” at the bottom left of my Mac’s window.

5. I inspected the element’s code related to the player’s play button and here is the corresponding HTML :

<a title="Previous" href=";"><span></span></a>

Obviously, Fancybox thinks it needs to run a script. Again, this is just not right!

Strangely, there are no Fancybox settings in the Library Settings area of the WP Lightbox Ultimate v2.1.0 plugin, so I don’t have a clue how to affect anything regarding Fancybox.

I’m running WordPress 3.9.1. Here’s a link to my video test page: [http://debimartin.com/video-test]

Please help. I just want an embedded video player that is responsive — and that works the way it’s supposed to. This lightbox just doesn’t work as is.

Thanks.

The HTML code I referred to in Item 5. was stripped out from my original post .

Here it is again with a back tick (`) instead of each bracket.

a title="Previous" class="fancybox-nav fancybox-prev" href="javascript:;"span/span/a

Hi, both shortcodes are linked to a vimeo video with the same rel attribute, which is why Fancybox is automatically adding a navigation arrow. You should still be able to hide it by applying the following tweak:
