Seamless Image Display

Uses ColorBox lightbox script to display fullsize images within the page, no modifications needed.

Effortless Integration

Easily make single non-[gallery] images use the lightbox by giving their links a class of "lightbox".

Improved User Experience

Enhance the native WordPress galleries with a more full featured carousel module in the Jetpack plugin.

Simplified Usage

Discontinued plugin in favor of Jetpack, a more comprehensive solution for image display.

Version 3.2.2

  • Update ColorBox to v1.3.14 (see it’s changelog). Fixes functionality under WordPress 3.1.

Version 3.2.1

Version 3.2.0

  • Make any link that has the class lightbox into a lightbox. No grouping or anything, at least for now.

Version 3.1.4

  • Don’t change the attachment link inside the admin area.

Version 3.1.3

Version 3.1.2

  • Remove IE PNG fixes as they require a full URL and it’s not worth the trouble. Works well enough in IE8.
  • Change how groups of images are labeled (use a random number rather than the gallery’s ID so it works with the Twenty Ten theme).

Version 3.1.1

  • Update ColorBox to v1.3.4.

Version 3.1.0

  • Update ColorBox to v1.3.3.
  • Include all five of the default ColorBox themes and add a settings page to pick between them.
  • Change the lightbox maxwidth and maxheight to 95% as I think it looks better.

Version 3.0.2

  • Don’t do anything inside of feeds (i.e. modify the thumbnail links).

Version 3.0.1

  • Fix spelling mistake on the ColorBox style ID.

Version 3.0.0

  • Switch the awesome ColorBox. It looks pretty and does large image resizing. Yay!

Version 2.0.1

  • Remove an extra comma that was breaking stupid Internet Explorer. Props Troy.

Version 2.0.0

  • Switched lightbox scripts as I was unhappy with the previous one.

Version 1.1.0

  • Update jquery_lightbox package. It now supports resizing images that are too large as well as not disabling IE6 support.
  • Makes the lightbox gallery-aware, i.e. don’t allow next/prev between image sets. Thanks to Benjamin “balupton” Lupton!

Version 1.0.1

  • Better WordPress 2.6 support (i.e. when you have a moved plugins directory).

Version 1.0.0

  • Initial release.

Plugin não funciona no WP 5.5.1

By Isaac Newton Ribeiro de Araújo (isaacribeiro) on October 18, 2020

O jQuery Lightbox For Native Galleries não funciona na versão 5.5.1 do WordPress. Todas as publicações e páginas ficam em branco quando ele é ativado. Curiosamente, o problema não se repete quando outro plugin lightbox é ativado, mas a aparência das galerias de imagens não é boa.

Great. Works until now

Great. Works until now with the latest WordPress.
