i'm using the digifoto theme, which uses lightbox and i'm getting an error when i click the images in a gallery that says, "Image cannot be loaded. Make sure the path is correct and image exist." I haven't been able to get a response from the theme developer, so i looked in the jquery.prettyphoto file and saw this website listed, thought i might be able to get some help here. i'm using the default media upload for wordpress, but it isn't installed at the top directory, which is what i'm thinking the problem is. unfortunately i don't know enough about jquery to edit the pathing information. here's where you can see the load issue http://www.finishingtouches-sa.com/FTWordPress/?portfolio=sitterle-parade.
It's actually a problem with how the gallery inserts images. The images link to the media pages instead of the actual file. This is what I personally use (please note it takes some styling out which I put in my theme). You can copy and paste this into the bottom of your functions.php file
// Changes the default WordPress Gallery remove_shortcode( 'gallery' ); add_shortcode( 'gallery' , 'my_own_gallary' ); function my_own_gallary($attr) { $post = get_post();
static $instance = 0; $instance++;
if ( ! empty( $attr['ids'] ) ) { // 'ids' is explicitly ordered, unless you specify otherwise. if ( empty( $attr['orderby'] ) ) $attr['orderby'] = 'post__in'; $attr['include'] = $attr['ids']; }
// Allow plugins/themes to override the default gallery template. $output = apply_filters('post_gallery', '', $attr); if ( $output != '' ) return $output;
// We're trusting author input, so let's at least make sure it looks like a valid orderby statement if ( isset( $attr['orderby'] ) ) { $attr['orderby'] = sanitize_sql_orderby( $attr['orderby'] ); if ( !$attr['orderby'] ) unset( $attr['orderby'] ); }
