= How to Use WP Colorbox =

**Pop up image in lightbox**

Create a new post/page and use the following shortcode to create a text/image link which will trigger lightbox once clicked:

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/overlay.jpg" type="image" hyperlink="click here to pop up image"]`

here, url is the link to the media file that you wish to open in lightbox and hyperlink is the anchor text/image.

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/overlay.jpg" type="image" hyperlink="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/thumb.jpg"]`

**Pop up YouTube video in lightbox**

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nmp3Ra3Yj24" type="youtube" hyperlink="click here to pop up youtube video"]`

**Pop up Vimeo video in lightbox**

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1284237" type="vimeo" hyperlink="click here to pop up vimeo video"]`

**Specify an Alternate Text for an Image**

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/overlay.jpg" title="overlay image" type="image" hyperlink="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/thumb.jpg" alt="Thumbnail image description"]`

**Apply Custom CSS**

You can specify your own CSS class in the shortcode to customize a text/image link.

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nmp3Ra3Yj24" type="youtube" hyperlink="click here to pop up youtube video" class="custom_class"]`

Multiple CSS classes can be separated with a space. For example:

`[wp_colorbox_media url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nmp3Ra3Yj24" type="youtube" hyperlink="click here to pop up youtube video" class="custom_class custom_class2"]`
