    I’ve followed the instruction, but the video is not playing in the pop-up.

    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_image link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoNktlxrPz0″ description=”Black Rose Skater Dress” source=”https://www.wowceleb.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Play_button_4-5.png” title=”Black Rose Skater Dress”]

    I’m not able to change my theme, so if its a conflict causing this problem, what are the other options available?

    • YouTube says “CONTENT WARNING — This video is private.” Change the video permissions in YouTube.
    • If you really want to secure the video source, host it on Amazon S3 instead.

    YouTube doesn’t let you embed PRIVATE videos like you normally embed a normal YouTube video. If you want to embed YouTube video then you need to make that video public then the plugin will be able to embed it.

    @CPFan, You are using the wrong shortcode. Please replace it with the following:

    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoNktlxrPz0″ width=”480″ height=”360″ description=”Black Rose Skater Dress” source=”https://www.wowceleb.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Play_button_4-5.png” title=”Black Rose Skater Dress”]

    I believe it’s conflicting with one of the lightbox scripts included by WooCommerce (prettyPhoto). Can you please disable WooCommerce lightbox temporarily and see how it goes?
