 * I have tried multiple lightbox plugins and Give seems to conflict with all of
   them. When give is enabled, images no longer open in a lightbox. Any reason why
   that might be happening?

 * Hi there,
 * That’s highly unusual. Most lightboxes I’m familiar with (I used to run Support
   at FooPlugins, authors of FooBox) use data attributes on the images. And Give
   doesn’t impact the markup of ANYTHING on your site besides the actual Give forms.
 * Can you give me a very specific way to reproduce this problem? Is it always with
   single images in posts? Or galleries? Is it with FooBox, or Featherlight? And
   is it with images inside the Give content only, or globally throughout the website?
 * Thanks!

 * Thanks for the quick response Matt.
 * I do tutorials and on a single blog post, I often include screenshots. The are
   small on the site but the user can click on the image so that iot pops up nice
   and big in a lightbox.
 * Whats happens is when Give is activated, all the single images I have on my site
   that link to the actual “Media File” takes you to the image url instead of popping
   up in a lightbox. When I deactivate Give, the images open up in a lightbox once
   again.
 * This only started happening recently. It used to work just fine. I have been 
   using Give since the Beta and it didnt have that problem at first. The change
   has only been in the last few months
 * These are the plugins I have tried so far
 * Simple Lightbox
    Lightbox Responsive Lightbox WP Lightbox 2
 * It is global throughout the site. The Give form works fine. Even the Modal popup
   is fine.
 * For example you can visit this page. Try clicking on one of the screenshots to
   see what I mean. The Simple Lightbox plugin is turned on and so is Give.

 * HI there,
 * I just tested with Simple Lightbox plugin locally and had no trouble at all. 
   We also just got notice of a new campaign and they use a lightbox plugin on their
   campaign page with no trouble at all:
    [https://surpriseadoption.com/our-parker-story/](https://surpriseadoption.com/our-parker-story/)
 * So, I know it may seem that this is a clear conflict with Give, but most likely
   it’s a combination of Give and another plugin which is causing this. Here’s my
   suggestion:
 * 1) Disable ALL plugins except Simple Lightbox and Give. Ideally, the lightbox
   will work perfectly at this time.
    2) Then re-activate each plugin one by one
   until you encounter the problem again. 3) let us know which plugin triggered 
   the problem and then I can potentially duplicate the problem.
 * Let me know how that goes. Thanks!

 * I disabled all the plugins except the two and it still did not work. I thought
   it might be an issue with the Divi theme so I switched to Twenty Sixteen and 
   Twenty Fifeteen and still had the same problem.
 * Could it be a settings issue?

 * Just updated to 1.3.5 and its fixed. Always appreciate your work and help Matt.
   Thanks for all you (and now your family) do in the WP community 🙂
