Thank you! Sorry – I should have been more specific. I installed the prettyphoto plugin that makes galleries show in lightbox because the the prettyphoto script included in the theme interfered with the use a jquery lightbox for native galleries. (not sure why) In any case no matter what I did I couldn’t get my galleries to work in a lightbox because of the theme script.
I used your instructions for linking to the post instead of the effect so all is well now. Thanks for your quick response – you have awesome themes and your support rocks 馃檪
