 * It seemed to good to be true, and alas it is. Installed, and yet…nothing happens,
   nothing at all. Cleared my cache, reloaded pages, and yet the images don’t open
   in this lightbox, they open in the browser window instead. Guess I’ll keep “plugging”
   away looking for a lightbox plugin that works. Since wp-PrettyPhoto is now broken
   this one was my ray of hope! Hope you are able to get it working – I know this
   is just a beta version. Just wanted to let you know it’s not working. Thanks 
   anyway! 🙂

 * Hi,
 * New beta version has some problems, I guess. I doesn’t work for me either.
    Just
   use 1.5 and it should work perfectly! 🙂

 * Hi elsson, thanks .. I didn’t realize there was an earlier version. I’ll give
   that a try! Good luck with 1.6 🙂

 * SLB is indeed working for many users despite the current beta phase.
 * However, as noted on the plugin page, as there are so many possible configurations,
   there may be some issues specific to some users’ configurations during the beta
   phase.
 * If you are experiencing an issue with your configuration, please follow the instructions
   on reporting an issue on [SLB’s beta release page](http://archetyped.com/lab/slb-1-6-beta/).
 * Thanks.
