Link to your site please.
Hi,
Sorry it has taken me a while to respond. I can’t link to my site because it is not live yet 🙁 any other suggestions or information I could give you to help sort this out?
Yous has probably has some js errors or custom code replacing native wp items – gallery, images etc.
I can’t give you any tips without a link, sorry.
how do I check for JS errors? What do you mean custom code replacing native wp items?
I started my theme from scratch, because I am just migrating a very simple site over into wordpress. The theme is very basic, I don’t see how I could have any conflicts…
Also, I am not sure if I trust what you are saying because you are using very strange english grammar. ‘you has probably has’ should be: ‘you probably have’
Coming here to look for a similar problem. I have the exact same issue. Multi-line captions in the gallery break the lightbox functionality. It ends up linking directly to the image instead of being lightboxed, but only for multi-line captioned images.
guessing it’s a regex issue.
I could be wrong but the plugin author didn’t realize that the <a> tag may spread across multiple lines and so possibly in your case on your page it wont trigger. Curious, lets try a test. Locate, and open this file:
responsive-lightbox\includes\class-frontend.php
We are going to make a few simple changes. So before you do make a backup of this file. Once u are done these changes you want to put it on your website server.
So, we are going to make two changes, the first on line 82 and the 2nd on line 179. The new change is identical for line 82 and line 179.
Old Line:
preg_match_all( '/<a(.*?)href=(?:\'|")([^<]*?).(bmp|gif|jpeg|jpg|png)(?:\'|")(.*?)>/i', $content, $links );
New Line:
preg_match_all( '/<a(.*?)href=(?:\'|")([^<]*?).(bmp|gif|jpeg|jpg|png)(?:\'|")(.*?)>/is', $content, $links );
All i did was add the letter “s” (its a regex modifier which allows for the dot metacharacter to match new lines).
Let me know if this resolves your problem. If not then u can put it back to the original file and we can keep trying to figure it out.
Cheers
Kimberly
PS – i dont have the plugin installed so i am only going by code observations.
