    Hi Amin007,

    I see that this topic was last discussed about a year ago.

    I believe I'm having a similar problem but need specific instructions catering to my issue.

    Here's my site: http://www.ronpucherelli.com

    On this page, notice how when a user clicks on the blue link... the video will showcase beautifully based on the settings i set for WP Lightbox Ultimate plugin:
    http://www.ronpucherelli.com/?p=610

    This is the code that i used in the visual tab:
    [wp_lightbox_prettyPhoto_anchor_text_video link="http://vimeo.com/28936655" width=1280 height=544 text="MegaMind: The Button of Doom (2010) dvd bonus" description="2010 - MegaMind: The Button of Doom (Demo Reel)"]

    However, when you go to this site:
    http://www.ronpucherelli.com/?page_id=419

    and click on the image on the left... the video pops up, but the settings i set for WP Lightbox Ultimate are nowhere to be found. The video appears with a white ugly border. Is there any way (after clicking on the thumbnail) that I can make the video popup look and behave exactly like it does in the above link: http://www.ronpucherelli.com/?p=610 (using my WP Lightbox Ultimate settings)?

    Would it be a custom field that I should create? To fix this, I was told to use the "et_videolink", but that just uses the default lightbox and places a white border around the edge. I don't have any other lightbox plugin active in my wordpress settings, btw.

    Please let me know if someone can help me! :-)

    - Ron

    The videos on this page are actually coming from your theme (not the lightbox ultimate plugin):
    http://www.ronpucherelli.com/?page_id=419

    So you need to address it in your theme and use the right shortcode provided to you by your theme developer. I just had a look and it looks like you already fixed it.

    hi, actually i didn't fix anything. :-) i still need to fix it. how can i get every video to pop up using WP Lightbox Ultimate (the way I have it setup here): http://www.ronpucherelli.com/?p=610
    click on the blue link... the video will showcase beautifully based on the settings i set for WP Lightbox Ultimate plugin.

    Can you help me with this? How do I address this in my theme? I have Elegant Themes and so far the support has been poor. i feel like i've been going in circles. Pretty frustrated.

    I don't know much about your theme but you have to embed the video using a lightbox ultimate shortcode to make it popup using this plugin. If you don't use a shortcode the plugin doesn't know anything about that video. This is explained in the usage section of our plugin:
