Can’t get Lightbox Plus Colorbox to work properly

Hello,
Still following M. Tylers tutorial on YouTube in which he’s using yout theme Vantage. Then he just dowloads the plug-in Lightbox Plus Colorbox – and it just works for him!
Not for me – what am I doing wrong?
I made a page called Picture Gallery and made the gallery on the page, but it doesn’t display as it should.
I deleted the plug-in a few times and re-installed it again – but no.

    Hi Kicki Maria

    Sorry to hear about the hassle. I’ve chatted with M Tyler over email but unfortunately haven’t watched his tutorial. A possible solution here would be to switch plugins. I’m a big fan of Jetpack Carousel: http://jetpack.me/support/carousel/ which works great with Jetpack Tiled Galleries: http://jetpack.me/support/tiled-galleries/.

    The Carousel module is only applicable for galleries. If you want it to work for single images you can insert a single image gallery.

    Hope that helps.

    Hello again Andrew,

    And thank-you so much for your advice :)

    I have now installed jetpack and activated

    * carousel
    * tiled galleries

    But I must do something wrong

    1. I create a new page – ³Photo Gallery²
    2. ³Add media² – I add for example 6 images from my media library, linked to
    ³Mediafile² – insert on page ­ publish
    3. The page displays my photos, enlarge them, but no arrows or indicators for the viewer to browse further on in my gallery, and surely this must be the intention, the whole idea with my gallery?

    So what am I doing wrong here?

    It would be great if you would be so kind and help me in this

    Kind regards,

    Hi :)

    Carousel and Tiled Galleries are only applicable to galleries so when you click Add Media you must then add a gallery.

    Hope that helps.
