Hi, I would like to display the lightbox widget for image files uploaded using Filefield, and display these images in a View. I can't do this, however, because I only get an image file icon when I set the widget to be Lightbox2 iFrame. Also, Views is not the only place where it doesn't work, in the teaser and node pages, the file is displayed as a small image file icon as well, no lightbox, ... I would like to say though that LightBox works perfectly on my Drupal for Image Assist images and Image Galleries, but doesn't seem to work for Filefield.

I'm attaching a screenshot, you can see at the bottom "Artwork Attachment". I'd like to have lightbox there, not this icon.

Thanks,

Loic

Fixed in the latest dev release (available later today). The issue only arises when no description is entered for the file uploaded.

Sorry to reopen it but the problem is still here for me.
I only use lightbox2 and imagefield.

When i use the display option lighbox2 iframe, only the descriptions ( which is linked to the image ) is displayed with a small icon next to them.
When i click on the description the image is displayed well on the iframe though.

i use the latest dev version.

I need the uploaded image to be displayed on the node, not the icon, with the same lightbox2 link.

What is this display option supposed to do ?

Thanks

Hi there,

I ran into the similar problem; I was trying to open up a pdf file which is uploaded through FileField; I choose Lightbox2 iFrame as the display method; then I get this chunk of html code for the pdf link:

<a class="lightbox-processed" rel="lightframe[][<br /><br /><a href="http://localhost/drupal/sites/default/files/xxx.pdf" id="node_link_text">View Image Details</a>]" href="http://localhost/drupal/sites/default/files/xxx.pdf"/>

It is kinda messed up.

I followed #2, added description to the filefield, and now it works! #4 #5 should try this

Got this running with some help from a Drupal guru. I did not have the imagecache module installed. Once I added that and created a preset to handle my thumbnail creation, all the other Lightbox options opened up within my View.
