How can I open any image any video regardless wherever it is in site (without writing code -one by one attribute/tag which is very annoying) to the lightbox? Is there any simple tricks in configuration settings?
Thanks.

stella commentedWell there is automatic image handling built in for images added to the site for certain modules (image, acidfree, flickr, image_assist, etc) which can be configured at admin/settings/lightbox2/automatic If using imagefield + imagecache, you can also configure the display settings so the images open in a lightbox when clicked via the content type CCK field settings, or for in Views, via the view config. Ditto with images provided using the emfield image module.
For videos, there's no automatic video handling, except for those videos added to the site using the emfield video module - again this can be configured in the display settings for that field in the content type, or in the views config if applicable.
Cheers,
Stella

dbeall commentedI really don't like bothering people.. been reading--searching-- I was trying to open images in new window with regular expressions in project/extlink, I did get that working..But it would be so cool to have it in lightbox
it seems this module is very complicated at first look through all the settings..wow.. I looked through the issue que and I have read the documentation and now I am lost..
Is there some kind of way to get image attachments to open w/lightbox.. referring to attachments on comments, forum posts or nodes(content types).just like the attachments used here on Drupal.
thank you..dave
