Installed plugin, when to change some settings and bam!! site down. 500 error. Tried
disabling all plugins via SSH and also via MySQL and still 500 Error. Have no idea
what this thing did when I clicked save settings. Going to have to back up my DB
and re-install from last week’s back up, and spend a much of time uploading files
etc. There are others with similar experience with this plug in, so I would highly
recommend not to install this and try one of the other lightbox plugins instead.

### 󠀁[very poor non-responsive plugin with zero support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-poor-non-responsive-plugin-with-zero-support/)󠁿

 [ip11166](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ip11166/) September 3, 2016

Plugin is not responsive and thus unusable on mobile devices. Support does not exist.
I wrote on the support forum twice – author even did not bother to reply.

Considering that it’s a free plugin the featureset is great. However, even doing
something as simple in the CSS as having the image float to the right of the text
seems to prevent it from generating the popup. This makes it unusable for my site.
