Hi,
I am using WordPress 4.5.2 with X Theme version 4.5.2

I have a button on my front page and I want it to open a lightbox and play a video (1240×720)

In Cornerstone I have created a Text element and have included the following in the Text box.

[button class=”btn-lightbox” size=”x-large” circle=”true” image src=”http://localhost:8888/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/V-info-animation-1.jpg” link=”true” href=”http://localhost:8888/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/More-Info-Animation_z.mp4″ title=”V Features” lightbox_video=”true”] CLICK ME TO LEARN MORE!
[lightbox selector=”.btn-lightbox”][/button]

The button appears correctly but when clicked it doesnt open a lightbox, instead it opens and plays the video with the URL http://localhost:8888/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/More-Info-Animation_z.mp4

Please can you advise what is wrong
Thanks
Ian

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! You have posted your localhost address that couldn’t be accessed by anyone except you.

Kindly follow the Lightbox walkthrough to setup lightbox correctly – https://community.theme.co/kb/shortcode-walkthrough-lightbox/

Cheers!
