# Custom Lightbox URL issue

 * Hello,
 * When I use a custom lightbox and provide links for the CSS and JS, it automatically
   removes the http: prefix and thus the plugin loads it as a local file.
 * Also if I place the files locally and use a relative path (like /wp-content/path_to_file/
   file.css), it uses a wrong URL on the multilingual parts of the website. For 
   the default language it will work fine, but for another it will use /lang_code/
   wp-content/path_to_file.css.
 * Hope you will fix this in a future release, here is my own quick fix to load 
   local files correctly accross the multilingual website:
    File: /wp-content/plugins/
   nextgen-gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/lightbox/package.module.lightbox.
   router.php Line: 244 Change: $url = home_url($url); To: $url = get_bloginfo(‘
   wpurl’).$url;
 * Kind regards,
    Pepijn van Vlaanderen

 * [@peppol](https://wordpress.org/support/users/peppol/) – Thanks for the feedback…
   although you were able to work-around this by changing the NextGEN Gallery code,
   which multilingual plugin are you using that is causing the problem you are seeing?
