# lightbox error message in chrome developer console

 * Hi,
 * when I examine a page with the Chrome developer module (right click anywhere 
   on the page, then examine), there are one or two error messages from lightbox
   in the console:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       lightbox.js?ver=1785533821:6 (Meow Lightbox PS) No images found.
       ```
   
 * You get more details if you expand the message.
 * This error message is obviously from Meow Lightbox and appears on all pages or
   posts where I have no gallery embedded (i.e. the majority of pages including 
   the start page). It only disappears on pages with a gallery, e.g. [https://hosting196091.ae93c.netcup.net/walpurgisnacht/](https://hosting196091.ae93c.netcup.net/walpurgisnacht/)
   On gallery pages, a different message is present:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       🖼️ Meow Gallery: Found 1 gallery root(s) in the DOM. {galleryRoots: NodeList(1)}
       ```
   
 * Why is the absence of a gallery marked as error? This shouldn’t be the case….
 * Thanks in advance

 * Hey dillhausen! 👋
 * These logs are expected and are there to help us troubleshoot when an issue occurs.
 * If you’re not experiencing any unexpected behavior, you can safely ignore them.
 * We’ll make sure these logs are only displayed when the logging option is enabled,
   so they don’t clutter your browser console unnecessarily.
 * Thanks for your patience and understanding!
