FAQ
Nothing is opened with lightview?
In you theme the <?php wp_head(); ?> is missing. Please, add it.
Images are still not opened with lightview!
Maybe an other plug-in uses jQuery or an older version of prototype oder scriptaculous. Deactivate the plug-ins or let me know if you found an alternative.
I added images to my text, but they are not clickable and they are not shown with lightview.
You have to create a link to the image. E. g. create a link from the image to the same image or a bigger one.
Is there a jQuery version of lightview?
I am not the author of lightview. I have done a wrapper for wordpress. Please, ask the author of lightview and let me know about the alternative.
Lightview does not work in browser xy on OS yz. / How do I change the display of lightview?
I have no look into the lightview javascript code. Please, ask the author of lightview.
Current Version
The actual version is v2.5.3.2. Now, it supports YouTube, blip.tv and Vimeo videos.

Sorry but are you using Lightbox Plus or Fancybox on this page?
Hi. I had been using the lightview plus for a long time and using bought Nick’s 15Euro license. I also installed the Fancy Gallery Pro plugin and Fancy plugin doesn’t work. I found out that the Lightview plus is causing it. Found out also that Lightview plus is not compatible with WordPress 3.2.1? It breaks the whole Dashboard. After I deactivated the Lightview Plus, the Fancy Gallery Pro plugin works perfectly.
Is there any solution around this. Thanks.
Mike

Hello,
I’m wondering if there’s a way to resize the video thumbnails after adding a video to my page?
You can change it in the lightview plus options menu
I asked this question on Nick Stakenburg’s site, and he sent me here. Could someone help me with the issue below? I tried adding $.noConflict(); to the top of the lightview.js file, but to no avail. Please help!
*****
When enabling the Lightview Plus plugin on this page (http://www.aubergean.com/ebooks/), other Javascript on the page breaks. Basically, clicking ‚buy‘ on the page currently makes 1) the button disappear and 2) the tooltip does not popup.
Disabling the plugin restores functionality.
Our goal is to mirror the functionality here: http://www.deepakchopra.com/book. FYI: we aren’t going to steal their content, the client just liked the look and feel of their widget so we’re using it until the thing works.
I know next to nothing about javascript, so please be gentle.
This is a javascript problem and not a problem of the plugin. Ask Nick again, without telling him, that you use this plugin
If he read anything about plugins, he doesn’t answer…
The lightview folder structure is now /css, /example, and /js. The only folder named images is under /example/images. I copied these to /wp-content/plugins/lightview-plus/ but nothing happens when I click on the images.
Hi Pat,
sorry, but I haven’t adjusted my site to the new version of the plugin. You have to copy from the lightview javascript only the /css and /js directory. It doesn’t matter if you copy the /example directory into the lightview plus directory.
I can’t see a post on your website, where you have an example for me. For the ngg gallery, you have to modify the ngg gallery in the options menu to work with lightview.
