 * Tested on WP 3.4… it should work without any modifications. Maybe something went
   wrong during the upgrade. Have you tried resaving the FancyBox settings?

 * yup. resaved several times. wondering if [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/20971](http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/20971)
   is related.
 * Also, nextgen gallery stopped working at the same time. both of you use jquery
   and I read several threads on jquery issues.
 * My broken site is a password protected private site. so I won’t post the URL.

 * can you look in the page source and see if all the plugin files are loaded?
 * in the head section there should be jquery, jquery.fancybox and the inline fancybox
   script and near the bottom of the page jquery.mousewheel / .metadata / .easing…

 * You might want to disable the Shutter Reloaded effect in NextGEN (set effects
   to none/custom) but otherwise it seems all fine… Enqueueing works.
 * Do you get any script errors when loading the page or clicking an image? Use 
   Google Chrome (open page, right click anywhere, choose Inspect Element, open 
   the Console tab in the new tools window) or FireFox with Webmaster Toolbar installed.
   Or use IE and double click the yellow triangle (with exclamation mark in it) 
   if it appears in the bottom left corner…

 * I actually tried all the the settings (thickbox, lightbox, none, etc.) for Nextgen
   with no change in behavior at all.
 * No script errors are thrown in any browser.
 * It was all working so magnificently until the WP 3.4 upgrade.

 * No that ticket about wp_enqueue not working does not seem related since all script
   files are included correctly in your source. I’ll contact you via e-mail.

 * OK, so after looking at your site, it’s another plugin that is throwing an uncaught
   exception error. I guess incompatiblity with jQuery 1.7.2 … Will attach that 
   plugins tag so this thread will appear in the appropriate forum 🙂

 * thanks again for all the debugging work. you are amazing. I contacted the author
   of the plugin after our email exchange this morning and he will have a fix hopefully
   today. the wordpress community is awersome, both you and Ed Thompson were quick
   to respond and work through this.
 * and thanks again for the awesome plugin.
