There is a known bug in the latest version of WP-prettyPhoto that basically prevents it to work as intended. While you wait for an official fix, which will come soon, here is what you can do to make it work:
- First, identify the problem. Look at the source code of your page, within the prettyPhoto javascript stub, there is a value called “autoplay”. If that is not set to true or false, you have the bug.
- In your admin options, deactivate the plugin then reactivate it.
- Go in the WP-prettyPhoto options and change the value of “autoplay”, you can change it back later.
- Look at your source again, “autoplay” should be set and your pictures/videos should pop up nicely.
Thanks to Brad Keeling who reported the bug to me (as opposed to bitching on twelve different forums) and confirmed the fix.

@pluc – You’re awesome. I flipped my PHP toggle to PHP5, and bing, bam, boom… fixed. Works awesome. I totally love it. Thanks a ton for helping me figure this out… I was stumped. Virtual hi five to you!
@Kim – Yeah, you need to switch to PHP version 5, and get off of the crap GoDaddy hosting. Switch over to Mediatemple’s Grid Server service; it’’s awesome… I’ve put a number of clients on it. If you switch to MT’s GS, make me the referrer (rovettidesign.com), and I get a free month of hosting, and you get a good feeling inside that you’ve helped me manage my studio costs… LOL

I have the same issue as Tyler: lightbox opens, but image is not displayed. Close the box and briefly see the image which looks like it has been hiding behind the lightbox background. Anyone else seen this? Happens with all file types and prettyPhoto themes for me

Great!! I was just thinking what was wrong while I tried to update a page of a client of mine. Super!! Fixed worked as a charm. Keep up the good work, love PrettyPhoto!

I’ve got a different problem: at one point, the flash contents which I have uploaded and linked appear as “?t/uploads/2010/02/videoplayer-3.swf”, with that strange question mark in place of “wp-conten”.
I think there are some hidden replace routines which break my code. I don’t get how to solve this.
Bye,
Luca
