# Basic Setup

 * A while back – I was using a different theme – I had overall no problem with 
   images from any post “popping up” (without any special setting, with your free
   FancyBox version). Now none of my images pop up (except some that are present
   as links within my text). I looked for a basic setup guideline to see what I 
   may be missing in my settings, but could not find such post/information).
    The
   page listed is NOT the only page I would like images to pop up on on, just a 
   sample – I would like to have images be clickable to enlarge throughout my site.
   Thank you. PM

 * Hi PM!
 * Please edit the page and where you have an Image > click on it > click the link
   icon > select ‘Media file’ > save.
    Please see screenshot: [https://imgur.com/a/BxcJd1X](https://imgur.com/a/BxcJd1X)
   You will need to do this for all images that you want to be opened in a lightbox.

 * Thank you very much Mihaela.
    I am not sure I understand your directions:
 * > where you have an Image > click on it > click the link icon > select ‘Media
   > file’ > save.
 * I did try in my WP editor to “do things” to my image, but they led only to these
   possibilities, and nothing that ressembles what you propose.
    Since I cannot 
   upload images here, I give you links to the places I got stuck while “editing”
   that image in WP. [https://piermarton.info/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screen-Shot-2022-04-09-at-2.02.29-PM.png](https://piermarton.info/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screen-Shot-2022-04-09-at-2.02.29-PM.png)

 * Thank you Mihaela!
    Very useful and very simple to achieve. There is one image
   that does not seem to lead to an “in-post” pop-up but a separate page: [https://i0.wp.com/piermarton.info/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/OttoDixWar.jpeg?ssl=1](https://i0.wp.com/piermarton.info/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/OttoDixWar.jpeg?ssl=1)
   What I am doing wrong? —————– So glad to have you there to help!
 * To finish, I wonder how I can
    -  stop
 *  some earlier pictures to show up within this page.
    As you click on the images,
   you will notice that there are two images that do not belong on that page: [https://piermarton.info/what-now-post-zoom-info/](https://piermarton.info/what-now-post-zoom-info/)

 * Hi Pier!
 * I investigated, however, it seems you are not using this plugin for the lightbox.
   
   From what I can tell you are using this plugin: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-fancybox/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-fancybox/)
   If you want to continue using that one, you will need to reach out to their support
   team as they know their plugin the best and will help you asap.
