How to Do a Lightbox Pop

1. Visit WordPress.org and search for the Lightbox plug-in. Click 'Extend' > 'Plug-ins' at the top of the Web page and execute a search for 'lightbox.'
2. Download Lightbox Gallery, Lightbox 3 or Flexible Lightbox. Lightbox 3 is the newest version of the original Lightbox plug-in, but many of the available Lightbox plug-ins will accomplish the same result.

3. Upload and install the plug-in from your WordPress Dashboard. Click 'Plug-ins' > 'Add New' > 'Upload' and browse for your downloaded plug-in. Click 'Install' and the plug-in should upload automatically. When it's finished, click 'Activate.'
4. Test the plug-in by going to the website and clicking one of your images. It should automatically be 'Lightboxed' once the plug-in is installed.
