Title: Lightbox Gallery Last modified: May 21, 2018 --- # Lightbox Gallery * Resolved [tomfoto](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomfoto/) * (@tomfoto) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/) * Hi there, * Im far from an expert at coding but I have used your wonderful plugin to create a Lightbox gallery. However the previous and next buttons do not work. The only way I can view the other images in the gallery is to click on the image to close it and manually pick the next image from the main gallery page. * You can see the buttons but clicking on them does nothing. DO you know if this is an error of if I am making a rookie mistake? * Kind regards. Tom * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flightbox-gallery-12%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 16 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/page/2/?output_format=md) * [seonsei](https://wordpress.org/support/users/seonsei/) * (@seonsei) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/#post-10327225) * Hi, plugin is just great !!

So you will need to disable the other lightbox functionality in order to make it work correctly. * Thread Starter [tomfoto](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomfoto/) * (@tomfoto) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/#post-10421831) * Hi Mark * No joy I am afraid. I have tried disabling the Lightbox function in the plugin but this also disables this one. * Still not working so may need to look at other options which is a Shame as the actual gallery looks good. * Kind regards.

That being said how do I find out if there are other Light Boxes opening or where do I find them to disable them. I LOVE Gallery Plus but I want my users to be able to scroll through the pictures with the scroll arrows. * [loscarnales](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loscarnales/) * (@loscarnales) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/#post-10434857) * Disregard the last message found the fix…for all who want to make the lightbox scroll…go into the WordPress Dashboard…go the Scripts & Styles Panel…once the page loads find the Lightbox square and disable it…after you do make sure you go back to your page to edit and in Gallery Plus make sure the Lightbox toggle is switched to YES…then UPDATE your page and check it on the web…worked for me, hope it works for you. * [loscarnales](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loscarnales/) * (@loscarnales) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/#post-10434858) * The Scripts & Styles Panel can be found in the THEMES PANEL * Plugin Support [Fotis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markwaregr/) * (@markwaregr) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/#post-10435393) * Hi there, Glad you worked this out. Scripts and Styles is probably related to your theme’s settings I guess since its not a native WordPress Option. * [@tomfoto](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomfoto/), can you explain how you have disabled lightbox in the plugin? Do you have Elementor lightbox also active? * Thread Starter [tomfoto](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomfoto/) * (@tomfoto) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lightbox-gallery-12/#post-10435549) * Hi there * [@loscarnales](https://wordpress.org/support/users/loscarnales/), I don’t have a scripts and style panel under themes so maybe we use a different theme. * [@markwaregr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markwaregr/), I went to the global setting within the elementor editor and there is a toggle switch for Lightbox. Not sure this is what you meant? * Will keep looking. Kind regards.
