I am very impressed with this plugin, it worked right out the box and looks great and works on mobile too. I liked that it doesn't have a ton of extras that slow down the process and my website, I just wanted a good lightbox that worked easily! Thank you!

This plugin works for just displaying the image in a lightbox, but I'm looking for something that displays the attachment as a modal with title description etc
