Hey there – I’m trying to something extremely simple.
I just want to put a text link in a text box that links to my client’s YouTube page.
Whenever I try this it appears that the site tries to open a lightbox or something. Then it give me an error message and won’t go to the external page.
Should be a pretty simple thing to do – what’s up?
Check it out here:

(scroll to the bottom – in the last paragraph there’s a text link to go to their “YouTube Showcase page.”)
Thanks.
Hi dylandibona,
For most media linkes (images, youtube, vimeo etc) the theme uses a lightbox script to grab them and open up the media in a lightbox automatically. If you want to prevent this you just need to add the noLightbox class to the link like this:
<a class="noLightbox" href="http://www.youtube.com/">Youtube</a>

Devin
