 * Hi Arno, is it possible to load the scripts in the footer rather than the header?
 * Thank you

 * The plugin does not put the scripts itself to the header – WordPress does this.
   The plugin only tells WordPress which scripts it needs.
 * If you want scripts in the footer, you need an addon which moves all scripts 
   to the footer, like [https://wordpress.org/plugins/scripts-to-footerphp/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/scripts-to-footerphp/).
 * Just a note: having scripts in the footer does not change the overall loading
   speed of the website. It will only (slightly) reduce the time before the browser
   will start rendering the page. But the Lightbox with Photoswipe scripts will 
   not start doing anything before the page is fully loaded anyway.
