 * Love the plugin, but would like some galleries (for example a group of small 
   images – not worth enlarging) to be able to use the gallery shortcode without
   calling the plugin.

 * The easiest way is to change the following line in **lightbox-gallery.php**.
 * `add_shortcode( 'gallery', 'lightbox_gallery' );`
    to `add_shortcode( 'lightbox_gallery');`
 * This will cause the plugin to only trigger on [lightbox_gallery] and the normal
   gallery when using [gallery].
 * Help this helps,
