Just in case anyone else comes here, I have discovered that this plugin is not compatible with [the] advanced custom fields [plugin]. The problem is what I listed above. Actually, it is not compatible with anything you have to run through the wordpress ‘do_content’ filter.

All shortcodes work except the ones where they have put javascript inline (which are the two shortcodes used to embed videos you self host). If you are not a developer, are using advanced custom fields (or possibly anything you need to run through to ‘do_content’ filter), and want to link to self hosted videos then this plugin will not work for you. [The “Advanced Custom Fields” plugin is not compatible with Lightbox Ultimate.]

Actually, I might have narrowed it down. We are using advanced custom fields and in order to get the field values from the wysiwyg field we have to do:

$field_data = get_sub_field('content');

$field_data = apply_filters('the_content', $field_data);

Is it possible that the apply_filters is messing up those two shortcodes? Again, all your other shortcodes work fine going through the same filters.

Sorry, forgot to answer your question above. We tried both shortcodes related to hosted videos:

wp_lightbox_mp4_video

wp_lightbox_flowplayer_video

[wp_lightbox_mp4_video link=”https://linktovideo” width=”640″ height=”480″ source=”https://linktocoverimage.jpg” img_attributes=”class=img-fluid”]

If you can send over an email we will be sure to get you credentials and the site info.

As a side note, the error in the console (and this only appears for mp4 or mlv videos using the lightbox or flowplayer option – not youtube, vimeo or any other third party) is:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token

the error is at line 237 on wp_lightbox_flowplayer_includes.php

We have a youtube video popping out in a lightbox on the same page using your plugin and it is working fine. It is just the options that relate to using a video on our server that are throwing the error.

Hello,

Thank you for your response. The code is pushed up and available. Since this is a public forum, would you mind sending an email to us so that we can get credentials to you?

The dev site is not publicly accessible.
