 * Hi,
    I used your gallery with responsive lightbox and everything worked fine.
   After the update lightbox in galleries stopped working – the image opens as a
   file in webbrowser.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fexternal-lightbox-stopped-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * I checked your site but it seems there’s no lightbox selected. Can you check?
 * Cheers,
    Diego

 * The first photo on the site uses lightbox (the one captioned PROJEKT WERSJI ZEBRA).
   The gallery used the same lightbox, I didn’t change anything between the updates–
   and know it doesn’t work.
    Did you change how the rel (or data-rel) attribute
   is generated for “external lightbox”?

 * I didn’t change the rel values. What lightbox are you using?

 * Responsive Lightbox (TosRUs).
 * I checked that there was also some update, maybe it’s the fault of the lightbox
   that it stopped catching the link of images from your gallery.

 * I’ll try another lightbox and if it doesn’t help, then I’ll make something up
   with jQuery.

 * Haha, jQuery it is. For now. At least I don’t have to edit all my galleries.
 * PS. I love your plugin 🙂
