[TYPO3-english] jQuery Colorbox ver 1.5.5 corrupted a nice site

[Peder Høy Kristensen]

Hi,

I am building a new site with TYPO3 ver 6.1.1. Everything worked well, until I tried to install jQuery Colorbox. Unfortunately I chose the wrong version. There are two versions: ver 1.5.5. stable from March 11, 2013 and ver 0.0.1 alpha from August 21, 2011. Ver 0.0.1 works just fine on other sites. Now I tried to install the latest version, but it resulted in a blank screen in both frontend and backend - I can't even log on the backend. I deleted all files in typo3temp, but it did not get any better. jQuery Colorbox left nothing at all in typo3conf/ext.
How do I get my site back ? i.e. get it made visible.

PS: I tried to use jQuery Colorbox because the very nice pmkshadowbox does not work with TYPO3 ver 6.x

Venlig hilsen / Best Regards

Hello Peder,
I know the feeling.

Open the file LocalConfiguration.php the typo3conf folder. (make a copy to
be safe)
Find in EXT array part of jquery colorbox and remove all. (look carefully
for all)
Hope this works.

Kind regards,
Otto van Bruggen

Thanks, now it works again. I installed the "good" jQuery Colorbox (= jquerycolorbox) instead. Unfortunately it does not work proper either (as it does on other sites). I want it to show the pictures in a lightbox, but instead it clears the browser window and show the picture in the browserwindow? I must have missed something around the setup of this ext. De you by chance know what that might be?

You don't really need any extension to have images in a lightbox. There
are tons of JavaScript lightboxes available on the web and you can use
your favourite lightbox easily with TYPO3 CMS.

[1] describes the TypoScript options you can use to define the link
settings for the lightbox you like to use (usually class and/or rel
attribute).

[2] are two example setting for Fancybox and jQuery TopUp lightbox. You
can make a similar TS configuration for extensions in your installation
for which you want to use that lightbox too.

Well, I am just an average skilled (self-taught) TYPO3 user. I found an lightbox extension called Colorbox (t3colorbox), that works very well with TYPO3 ver. 6.1.1. I will use that one. It is the easy way for me.
