 * Hi, We use a Flickr gallery and we have Elementor on our site. When clicking 
   on a photo to open it loads it twice but only the initial photo. If you click
   the image in the background disappears and you can browse through the rest of
   the gallery fine.
 * I have tried both Classic Gallery and Guttenberg, no difference.
 * I would appreciate some help on this, please.
 * Thanks, Andrew

 * Hi,
    This happens when you have another plugin (or your theme) adds its own lightbox
   to your site, and the fix is to disable that particular lightbox. If you provide
   me with a URL I might be able to tell you what that plugin is.

 * [@sayontan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sayontan/) How can I send you
   the link to the dev site in private?

 * Unfortunately you have to provide the URL here. The forum rules do not allow 
   me to supply my email address.

 * I found the issue. It seems that it is Lightbox loading from Elementor. Now how
   do I best resolve this if we still need Elementor to use its own lightbox?

 * What if you were able to use Photonic’s lightbox for non-Photonic photos? You
   can do this from _Photonic → Settings → Generic Options → Generic Options → Photonic
   Lightbox for non-Photonic Images_.
 * The other possibility was to disable Photonic’s lightbox and use Elementor’s,
   but that will not work in your case since you are displaying a group of Flickr
   albums – Elementor’s lightbox cannot directly open Photonic’s nested photos.
