Hi, clicking either of those links just reloads the splash page. Please provide a direct link to a page that exhibits the issue you are experiencing and I would be glad to take a closer look.

Hi, here are SLB's minimum requirements.

If you have confirmed that cURL is enabled, you may also need to check to make sure that cURL is enabled for PHP, and that it is enabled for local requests.

I can't access that page in the wiki. The only pages I can see in the wiki are 'Home' and 'Report an issue'.

Can you please post the requirements here?

thanks

Or did you mean to link to this page?

As far as I can tell we are meeting the requirements. There's a PHPinfo page here http://wp-dev.gavurin.com/index2.php

Any ideas why the lightbox isn't working?

HTML output on live server (IIS) http://wp-dev.gavurin.com/ :

<a class="act" data-slb-active="1" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zasJ2Z7WpRo">
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-336" width="510" height="287" data-slb-group="1416" data-slb-active="1" alt="gavurin-video-bg" src="http://wp-dev.gavurin.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/gavurin-video-bg.jpg">
</a>

HTML output on dev server (Linux) http://gavurin.consil.co.uk/

<a class="act" data-slb-active="1" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zasJ2Z7WpRo">
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-336" width="510" height="287" data-slb-group="1416" data-slb-active="1" alt="gavurin-video-bg" src="http://gavurin.consil.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/gavurin-video-bg.jpg">
</a>

So, apart from the src URL, the HTML is identical. Which I interpret as the shortcode working. But the implementation is not.

Both live and dev home pages are delivering 44 JS files

Any ideas?

It appears that cURL may not be enabled for local requests, which prevents WordPress from being able to load some of SLB's resources (such as the lightbox's layout).

This is a setting at the server level, not within PHP. I would recommend contacting your host to check if they have disabled/blocked local cURL requests.
