post to lightbox album

Hello, I love the theme, and apologies for my bits and pieces questions. Just working through. I did a search but couldn't find anything specific- Is there a way to make a post gallery work like the album lightbox feature? I know you can create a slider, but would love to know if you can create a lightbox gallery with multiple image from a post. Thank you.

    Thank you, yes I've used that, only I've noticed it no longer lets jetpack enable mosaic and tiling, is there some css you could point me to work around? Thank you.

    I think not, cause we have overwritten default wordpress gallery so it would work better. This may be the reason why it is not working. However you can try to disable our code and see does it works good for you.

    Go to hypershot\advance\shortcodes\gallery.php and remove last line from that file: 
    add_filter( 'post_gallery', 'apollo13_shortcode_gallery', 10, 2 );
    With regards.

    wow, amazing, it works.. I wonder will it break anything else.? Do you have any ideas? I have checked your albums and they work.
    Thank you for the prompt fix.
    And just to be clear, is there no way to put one of your beautiful albums in a post?
    Thank you again,

    or could it be possible to link to album, from a featured image on blog page, not just from a text link. I may be asking the impossible, but thought I'd give it a go. Thank you and applause.

    It won't.

    You can display it as background of post as far as I remember. Album is post by it self for wordpress, so rather no easy other way then those included in theme.

    With regards.

    It would require some bigger customization to do that. I will mark this topic, and think about it, but I don't promise anything:-)

    Hi Air,
    I'm sorry to bother you, but the responsiveness of my posts page seems to have disappeared. I've back tracked and removed anything I was uncertain about, but can't seem to find it. Is there any where I should look?
    Thank you again.

    ah, dont' worry, I found it. Jetpack plugin, stops the responsive nature of the front page. No idea why!

    Hi Air,
    I've just updated to the latest version, but now my jetpack mosaic isn't working as it was, even after i remove the line, like above:
    add_filter( 'post_gallery', 'apollo13_shortcode_gallery', 10, 2 );
    I really need to use the circular galleries available in jetpack.
    Thank you,
    Karla

    So how can I help you? Any cache plugin installed?

    Hi Air,
    It's showing broken links to the works when I remove the code from the gallery.php file. I''m not sure why?

    Hi Air,
    Don't worry, again, I realise it's a problem with jetpack.
    Have a good day.

    Just one other question, the reason I was using the other plugins for galleries is you can't insert and album into a post.. but maybe this has changed now with your updates? Or is it still the case that the albums can only be on the gallery page. THanks,

    Apologies, it is still misbehaving. Here is a link to the page, I've reactivated jetpack as it wasn't making any difference. You mentioned caches, I'm not sure how or where to clear the cache. I'm trying to use AJax thumbnail rebuild at the moment, but I have many images, so it will take a while. I hope it's clear to you what is going wrong, thanks,

    update: i've turned off tiled galleries in Jetpack, and it's working again. Don't worry about this. But could you let me know if there is anyway to put one of your lovely albums in a post. Thank you.

    Hello

    Albums are still albums, and post are still posts;-) Nothing changed, and albums are not embedable in posts.

    With regards.
