I have tried all the good Lightbox plugins and none of them seem to be working with the Vantage theme for me. They work with one of the default themes and Mystile theme that I was using previously. The only plugin that I was able to get to work was Huge IT Lightbox, however, the size of the image it opens is very small. Any help getting a lightbox plugin to work would be appreciated.

Hi Fugz13
Thanks for reaching out.
Which plugin would you prefer using? I’ll run a quick check on whichever plugin that is.
Hey Andrew
Thanks for getting back to me. I would quite like to be able to use Lightbox plus Colour box. I currently have it activated on my site but it doesn’t appear to work, it is just the default woo commerce for product images lightbox that is active as far as I can tell. If I turn off the default lightbox then the image will just open in a new page.
All seems normal with Lightbox Colorbox in my Vantage installation. If you’d like you can switch themes and confirm you’re still seeing the same error. That’ll let you know if the problem lies with Vantage or not.
For plugin usage instructions, please, see: https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightbox-plus/
For single images just edit the image by hovering over it in the Visual tab, click the pencil icon to edit and insert: lightbox into the rel field.
It seems to be to do with the Vantage theme. I shall just disable the plugin and live with the default woocommerce lightbox. Thanks for your assistance.
I have another issue with the search function, I shall start a new thread for this though.
I’d be more than happy to take another look. Are you looking to use Lightbox Colorbox with WooCommerce? Does it work with WooCommerce if you switch to a default WordPress theme?
