 * Once I shifted the site to https from http the lightbox will launch but the video
   will not show up or play. This has happened to me on two sites. What do you think
   is the best way I can fix this issue on my end?

 * Hi, if you look at your URL address on the browser you will see a yellow exclamation
   mark. This is letting you know that you have mixed content in your site. Another
   words some links, or images are not secure. You might like to try the following
   plugin [https-redirection](https://wordpress.org/plugins/https-redirection/) 
   to help you with this issue.
 * In regards to the video not playing, I was able to view two videos on your site.
   Make sure you clear your browser cache and then try again.
 * Let me know how you go.
 * Regards

 * I actually changed the plugin to a different plugin because the client wanted
   a change. Searching I found a few other people having the same issue. It still
   will not work in HTTPS, I wonder if this has something to do with prettyphoto
   already being installed. I am using Ultimatum Theme, [https://ultimatumtheme.com/](https://ultimatumtheme.com/)
 * The mixed content is due to something to do with Essential Grid, I am talking
   to there support as well.
 * Thanks, let me know if there is anything I can do to help solve this issue.

 * Hi, in regards to the following comment.
 * > I wonder if this has something to do with prettyphoto already
 * This would definitely cause an issue.
 * You could test one of WordPress default themes like Twenty Sixteen or Seventeen.
   This would let you know if it is your theme that is conflicting with this plugin.
 * Kind regards

 * Confirm!! HTTPS Breaks
    It’s not a problem at the theme or other plugins.
 * On my side use SSL (HTTPS) and have a problem too.
    and when i bypass SSL (Use
   HTTP) it work!

 * So I had the same problem. I solved it by looking into the JS that comes bundled
   with my theme. There was another prettyPhoto JS that was minified and thrown 
   together with other JS code snippets to make the theme elements work.
 * What happens is that the prettyPhoto JS code from the theme is over-ruling the
   prettyPhoto that is packaged with wp-video-lightbox. So in order to make it work
   you have to correct the part where it constructs the embed URL in your themes
   prettyPhoto JS.
 * movie=”**https**://www.youtube.com/embed/”+movie_id, … and so on
    movie=”**https**://
   player.vimeo.com/video/”+i[3]+ … and so on
 * These lines are correct in wp-video-lightbox’s prettyPhoto JS – but they were
   wrong in the themes prettyPhoto JS.
 * Hope this helps…
