Hi Denzel,
thanks for you quick answer and the steps to examine.
Indeed the issue is caused by another plugin: Slim Stat Analytics
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-slimstat/
If it is deactivated, light-box works fine. Also your hint regarding chrome-cache was right.
Thanks a lot!
I will contact Slim Stats team asking for resolving the issue…
kinde regards
Klaus
