I'm a Drupalnewbie and couldn't get Lightbox2 working with a fresh installed D7. I did the following:

I added an Image field to Article and Basic content type as described here: https://drupal.org/documentation/modules/image

Lightbox Lite is DISABLED (by default).

In section admin/config/user-interface/lightbox2/automatic for "Automatic handler for image nodes" I selected Lightbox.

According to my understanding this is all which I need to configure to get Lightbox2 working. However, when viewing Articles or Basic contents with uploaded images, no Lightbox2 appears. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Please let me know.

I discovered that in section /admin/structure/types I had to select Manage Display for each content type and for the Image field select a Lightbox2 entry in the Format pull-down menu. Now it works. :-)

For me, I'm not actually using an Image field with Lightbox2. I'm using the flickr module, and I was trying to get it so clicking on an image in the photoset would open in a lightbox. It is adding the tags needed to the images, but it's just not working.

I have not worked on flickr support, so current it is not working. I need to fix other issues (about scriptaculous and prototype.js) before working on this.

This is since a while natively supported from the side of the Flickr module. See #1637464: Flickr: Colorbox/Lightbox integration.. It works for any overlay browser (also Colorbox) that gets triggered by the 'class' and/or 'rel' attribute of the anchor link that wraps around an image.

Please update the project page on this. It still states:

..there only few things missing from Drupal 6, current support for Flickr..

Thanks.
