Hi there,
since quite a few hours I am trying to get this extension working:

http://ez.no/community/contribs/applications/illightbox2

Unfortunately I can't get it working. The author wrote the following instructions:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL

* Read the following documentation:
http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_8/installation/extensions
and install this extension only for your user site.

Example. Put in your site.ini(.append(.php))
[ExtensionSettings]
ActiveAccessExtensions[]=illightbox2

Tested only with Exponential 3.8.1.

BASE IDEAS

* Unpack the the lightbox package
* Rename the files to comply with Exponential standard extension paths
* Fix the harcoded paths in lightbox.js (see the patch)
* Add a simple template ovveride for galleryline/image.tpl
* Ensure that required files are loaded using standard Exponential way
in settings/desing.ini(.append(.php)
* Clear the cache and enjoy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I guess I understood everything so far except this instruction found in 'base ideas': " Add a simple template ovveride for galleryline/image.tpl ". How to do it?
And by the way, are the steps under 'base ideas' even required or does the installation of the extension already everything required?

Does anyone have experience in installing this extension and can give a step-by-step installation instruction or at least some hot clues? For those experienced with Exponential, take a look on this extenstion. Very delightful.

Any help appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
