# Lightbox…. again?

* Hello,
* I just can’t get the lightboxes to work in my website. I has worked before, but
that was using other plugins complementary to NextGen. I’ve removed those but
now I just can’t get the ‘standard’ one to work on [http://www.vasco62.nl](http://www.vasco62.nl).
I tried clearing the caches, resetting the options and checked it wasn’t any
url with a link to a testing site. So that is it for what I could find over here.
Anyone who can help me out?

* [@iwan155](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iwan155/) – The necessary JavaScript
and CSS used for the Lightbox Effects is not being loaded on your page … this
may be a minor issue with your theme.
* Does your theme have a call to the `wp_footer()` function (usually in the footer.
php template)?

* [@iwan155](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iwan155/) – Please do not paste
very large pieces of code into the forums … they simply do not handle it very
well.
* As it is, I re-visited you site to see you are using Atahualpa which is generally
a well written theme (and should have the `wp_footer()` call) unless the version
you are using has been modified.
* Given this, I would suggest looking at your active plugins as a place where a
conflict is being created.

* OK, turns out it’s the TubePress plugin. Which is a bummer since it works wel
and is handy to put all yourubevideo’s on one page…
* Thanks for your help, I guess the rest is out of your hands…
* Strange is still in Firefox the photo’s open in a lightbox, but on a new paqge,
so not a floating photo over the original page.

* [@iwan155](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iwan155/) – Unfortunately TubePress
has not consistently worked with NextGEN Gallery which is a shame because it
makes a very nice complimentary plugin to use.

working anymore on the site.

* [@iwan155](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iwan155/) – Is this the same conflict
with TubePress? Also, I am not seeing the NextGEN Gallery JavaScript and CSS
being loaded into the page so that the Lightbox Effect will work … have you made
any changes to the theme or other active plugins?

TubePress … or there is another conflict you are experiencing on your site now?

* [@iwan155](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iwan155/) – Not having the Lightbox
Effects work is very often due to a plugin conflict … or a theme conflict if
it is providing Lightbox effects.
* If that is not the case here, then it may be best to send us a Bug Report ([http://www.nextgen-gallery.com/report-bug/](http://www.nextgen-gallery.com/report-bug/)…
please reference this topic) with your site specifics so we can look closer at
this issue.
* We will need log in and FTP credentials for your WordPress installation as well,
please include those with your Bug Report.
* Thanks!
