Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[Sjolie]

Yes I did, only because it is a live site with a lot of traffic. I didn't want to hurt sales.

Didn't know if there was any known issues with this type of problem.

I'll take a screen shot of code and images real quick as broken

[Sjolie]

code didn't say anything different from what it does now.

per chance is this a paid for template? many have their own scripting that does not play well with lightbox.

if that is the case you may need to use jqlightbox from rubikon--I thinnk I posted the link several posts before this one.

now sure

I'll take a look at the post, thank you for your replies. It looks awesome for the images its on. I plan to do every effort to fix it.

good work.

Hi Sjolie,
I looked at the code for your site, and it is already loading jQuery which ZLB uses as well so the fact that its getting loaded twice could be your issue.

as a test fix, you could try to open [includes/classes/zen_lightbox/slimbox.php] and comment out the line that loads ZLB's copy of jQuery.
you would need to change the line towards the top
from

echo '<script type …… 

to

echo //'<script type …… 

note the '//' is what you are adding.

hopefully this will help.

Thank you for the reply Daniel,


I did as you suggested, and when I load it up... the entire site doesn't load... except for the background image.

I also tried darkangel's suggestion of the other script without any success.


I would be interested in freelance work for those who are experienced with this addon. We truly want to get it to work properly.

my apologies, it was late when I replied,
the // should go before the echo like this

//echo '<script type="text 

let me know if that works for you

yes the other lightbox is practically like this one but I -- myself-- prefer daniel's lightbox,

Hope it behaves for you

AMAZING:) works like a charm now. I believe I tried an older script a couple years ago and forgot to remove it.. didn't realize we had two instances running.


I appreciate you both for taking the time to look at the site and giving me input, I know it isn't always fun troubleshooting someone else's problems.

Much appreciation!
