   Hello,
   Using Shadowbox JS version 3.0.3.8
   I'm trying to load a custom css file from my theme as documented on the plugin page. I've followed the procedure to the letter (except - read below!) yet shadowbox.css is stubbornly loading from the plugin directory.

   Also the instructions mention a 'functions.js' file, does that exist in any WordPress theme? I used functions.php anyway.

   Have you found any other solution than editing the plugin files ?
   Tanks in advance

   Try placing the code in a new plugin, or a mu-plugin.

   if you create a directory at /wp-content/mu-plugins and create a php file of any name in there and paste in the following code:

   <?php
   function custom_shadowbox_css($url) {
       return get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') . '/css/shadowbox.css';
   }
   add_filter('shadowbox-css', 'custom_shadowbox_css');
   ?>

   You will be good to go.

   Hy Matt and thanks for your quick response!

   What i'm trying to do is to add

   function custom_shadowbox_css($url) {
       return get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') . '/css/shadowbox.css';
   }
   add_filter('shadowbox-css', 'custom_shadowbox_css');

   in functions.php of my child theme only if the plugin is present and active.

   Well, i think there is some synchronization issue between inc/frontend.php apply_filters call and add_filter in functions.php; do you think it's possible ?
   Can you give me any tips ?

   Once again, thank's in advance
   P.
