Outstanding Lightbox Plus Issues
There are a couple of outstanding issue with Lightbox Plus that I hope to address this weekend.
- Can’t change to another style besides shadowed.
- IE specfic stylesheets not loading correctly in shadowed and elegant themes.
I will have these fixed this weekend and release version 1.6.9.5 addressing both of those issues.
Lightbox Plus version 1.6.9 Released
I’ve just released version 1.6.9 of Lightbox Plus. It addresses a couple of issue that became apparent rather quickly. Here’s the changelog:
1.6.9
- Fixed problem with styles in IE 6/7/8 not working under various circumstnaces (hopefully)
- Added the option to disable Lightbox Plus from adding it’s own styles allowing the user to place Lightbox/Colorbox styles in their theme stylesheet and reduce number of files loading.

New Lightbox Plus Release, version 1.6.8
Lightbox Plus version 1.6.8 has been released. It fixes several issue such as the double rel=lightbox[]
tag that was being generated. I also fixed some issues with the style sheets especially the back end style sheet for the admin panel and the IE 6 specific style sheets in some of the themes.
The main new feature that I added was the ability to auto-lightbox links to images that did not have an image in the link (i.e. text links to images.) I also added additional control over the width and height of images which can allow for interesting display options and different handling for long text.
Lightbox Plus now also works with WordPress MU. It has been tested with version 2.9.2 of WordPress MU and works quite well. It can be enabled globally or individually.
