Hi all, I have Ajax multi-step form and some images in a html field. These images are linked to the "Media File" and so a click on them should trigger a lightbox. However, this is not working (I've tried nearly all available lightbox plugins, such as Foobox, Responsive Lightbox, Easy FancyBox etc.). The problems seems to be that when the html field with the image is loaded via Ajax, then the Lightbox is not triggered.  Does anyone knows a solution for this? Many thanks for your help! <3

The JavaScript/jQuery for your lightbox plugin doesn't sound like it's being loaded. It's not now possible to know for certain without examining your site. Not sure how to help you.

Thanks Victor for guiding me to the right place. Finally, I could make it work with the plugin "Wonder Lightbox" + adding the following short script in a html field at the right step of the multi-step form: 
jQuery(".wplightbox").wonderpluginlightbox();
This script script re-inits the lightbox. Unfortunately, this plugin is not for free. I'm sure that the same can be achieved with a plugin such as "Easy FancyBox", but I couldn't figure out how.
