Cannot get the bumpbox to work on wordpress 3.0.1. What’s the secret?

I added all of the scripts to the header like suggested, and still nothing.

Is it not wp-compatible?

Thanks!

Frank-

I’m running the latest version of bumpbox and when running in Firefox 3.6.6 on a mac, the pdfs aren’t working with bump box unless I download this PDF plugin.

Hi again

Gone the time when you needed a PDF plugin – now you can use bumpbox on any OS without restriction. The PDF is now displayed through google doc viewer, removing the necessity of propietary plugins. Think that was a good choice.

Frank, thank you for creating this, it’s fantastic! I also had missed the PDF plugin, so thanks for posting that as well.

Hi Susan,

like mentioned before, it’s not a problem of the script, it is a missing plugin for your browser. This here might help: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/7518

Do you expect to have a fix in the near future for the Firefox problem on the Mac? I like the app and would like to use it, but want all my users to be able to see the content in the Lightbox.

MAC users need a browser plugin for PDF to be able to view PDF’s inside the bumpbox.

We’ve added more features now to bumpbox, namely CSS3 styles, previous|next buttons, audio mp3 player, inline content and a new media detection routine. Just try it.

Yes, doesn’t display .pdfs in OSX 10.5.8 & Firefox 3.0.13 either… works on Safari.

Wondering if it requires Acrobat Reader plugin/extension to work properly. If you have that installed, then what’s the point?
