 * Hi Matt–thanks so much for the quick response.
 * I was careful about inputting the url right on this page
    [http://www.thebigpond.eu/?page_id=4500](http://www.thebigpond.eu/?page_id=4500)
   but it’s doing the same thing (lightbox pops up but no video).
 * Ideas?

 * As far as I can see you have not updated the youtube url. I still see the following
   in the source:
 * `<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqDq_VnZ8Ok" rel="shadowbox[post-4500];
   player=swf;width=640;height=385;">Click here for the video.</a>`
 * Instead of:
    [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqDq_VnZ8Ok](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqDq_VnZ8Ok)
 * The url needs to be:
