There is a known bug in the latest version of WP-prettyPhoto that basically prevents it to work as intended. While you wait for an official fix, which will come soon, here is what you can do to make it work:

  1. First, identify the problem. Look at the source code of your page, within the prettyPhoto javascript stub, there is a value called “autoplay”. If that is not set to true or false, you have the bug.
  2. In your admin options, deactivate the plugin then reactivate it.
  3. Go in the WP-prettyPhoto options and change the value of “autoplay”, you can change it back later.
  4. Look at your source again, “autoplay” should be set and your pictures/videos should pop up nicely.

Thanks to Brad Keeling who reported the bug to me (as opposed to bitching on twelve different forums) and confirmed the fix.

  1. I’m getting the same error when I try to “Activate” the PlugIn:
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /data/0/0/18/81/18407/user/19921/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/wp-prettyphoto/wp-prettyphoto.php on line 21
    I recently upgraded to WP3.0. Maybe it’s a new issue.

  2. It’s not a new issue. It’s more than time you upgrade to PHP5.

  3. The newest version does not work on a Wordpress 3 multiblog system :-(
    Clicking on an image just causes … nothing :-(
