Works, but without prev-next support in the galleries.

Fine working Plugin, except many other Lightbox Plugins this is the one that works
with my ColorMag Theme. Great Work.

Simple, lightweight and works right out of the box. Exactly what I was looking for.
Great plugin!

Hi, Just to add some details, the plugin did not work after I installed and placed
the image as described in the instruction. However, when I added the keyword lightbox
in the "Link Rel" under "Image Details > Advanced Options" the lightbox started 
to work. I had previous experience working with lightbox so hope this helps if someone
ran into the same problem as I did.
