View the jQuery Version

JackBox for WordPress is built on a simple idea:

Connect your page and post content to a lightbox.This means no shortcodes and no gallery managers to figure out. Instead, JackBox is baked into your content editor and works just like the traditional “hyperlink” button. Except instead of just adding a simple link, you create a lightbox item!

JackBox was originally built with 2 goals in mind:

Create a lightbox that worked on mobile devices, even smartphones. JackBox is “responsive”, which means it’s 100% compatible with responsive websites.
Create a lightbox where every image, video and song can be inpidually shared. This means when someone “likes” one of your photos, when a friend clicks on the shared link, they’ll instantly be shown the exact photo that was originally shared.

Simple. Powerful. JackBox WP. Watch the Videos.

Smart Script Loading

The JackBox stylesheets and scripts will only load into your web page if the page contains a lightbox item. This means that on the pages where no lightbox items are used, no unecessary plugin files are loaded. When JackBox CSS and JavaScript files are loaded, they load asynchronously, helping your web pages to load faster.

JackBox Makes Thumbnails Easy

First, you have the choice to load a specific thumbnail of your choice.
If none are chosen, and the lightbox item is a clickable thumbnail to begin with, JackBox will grab and resize that thumbnail instead.
If these options aren’t available, JackBox will then attempt to grab the large version of the lightbox image and resize it.
And as a last resort, JackBox will just use a default thumbnail of your choosing.

Important Notes

The plugin is not automatically compatible with other gallery plugins, and support for plugin or theme compatibility is not included.
The videos demonstrate how the plugin works. Be sure to watch them before deciding if JackBox is right for you.
The plugin will not automatically override any current lightbox system your website currently uses. Instead, you will need to connect all of your existing lightbox to JackBox manually once the plugin is installed.
Images, Video and Audio shown in the preview are not included in the download source and are for demonstration purposes only.
Autoplay for video and audio is not available on mobile due to device restrictions.
Mobile touch swipe functionality is only available for images.
Fullscreen mode is not available for IE, Opera or Safari.
You may notice a “page jump” when the lightbox is entered. This is because the lightbox removes the page’s scrollbar when entered. This is done intentionally because the page’s scrollbar serves no functional purpose inside the lightbox, and in this developer’s opinion, the lightbox experience is much more pleasant without it. When the lightbox is closed, the page’s scrollbar will reappear and the page will automatically scroll to its previous position.
On mobile devices the page behind the lightbox will scroll to the top.
iframe scrolling is not supported on mobile devices
When sharing via Facebook, only the lightbox item’s link will get posted. Facebook will then scrape the image and title from your web page’s html.
The graphics and icons are retina-ready, photographs are not.
