Dear Md,
this is most likely an issue regarding the specific theme you use. Try checking how the CSS selectors for these various margins are implemented and adjust them as needed.

I have the same problem as Jayo but unfortunately he didn’t give a solution. When I activate ThickBox, it messes up the margins for paragraphs, media, etc.

Hello there!

The thickbox is working in my blog. But it caused a bit of a problem in the margin of my paragraphs.

So what I did is edit the css but now, my footer is not adjust to the very bottom of the page.

I hope you get what I mean. I need help in this one

Hi Robert, das geht am besten mit dem sogenannten Inline content, den Du auf hidden setzen kannst; Infos dazu gibt es hier. Wenn Du unter Einstellungen - ThickBox die Optionen des Plugins aufrufst, solltest Du die Hilfe Links sehen: diese sind genau mit dieser Funktion gemacht - vielleicht kannst Du es dir dort ja abschauen.

Hej Christian,

ich möchte gerne Text und Bild zusammen mittels Thickbox darstellen. Der Text soll unter das Bild und mit Absätzen (also in Sinnabschnitte unterteilt) dargestellt werden.

Wie lässt sich das bewerkstelligen? Irgend eine Idee? Ich habe schon alles mögliche ausprobiert, die Thickbox soll das ja von Haus aus können. Ich weiss nur nicht wie…

Wenn du Tipps hast, ich wäre dir unendlich dankbar!

Hi Callum,
please either try the expert mode or the option that advices the plugin to use the JavaScript that comes with WordPress from the options menu which is part of the plugin.

Hi,

On the website that I provided with this feedback, the thickbox isn’t displaying the images due to the js script calls being called twice, how do I change this to get it to work properly. Its under Portfolio -> Club Flyers, then on the source html page its at the bottom (or nearish)

Cheers

Callum

Am so close….

I’ve got the plug-in working on my site after using the expert mode…as it disabled the gallery feature when used normally.

However it now disables the main menu on the thickbox enabled pages.

Any suggestions as to how I can enable the plug-in without disabling the menu?

i was originally using the wp-fancyzoom plug in. This works well but makes a double pop-up on my gallery pages.

Have tried deleting the link URL from the gallery images using fancyzoom… but the damn links can’t be deleted.

Hi Sarah,
since you’re using the gallery shortcode that comes with WordPress you can either adapt the output of the gallery so ThickBox picks up the correct information or write a small tool that copies the relevant values in the database into the correct locations. Either way it might take some effort getting this just right.
