Create Thickbox in WordPress with just 3 lines of code.
July 11th, 2009 by SunilWe already know that WordPress is showing Thickbox in its backend (wp-admin). We can call the same Thickbox in the WordPress theme also. It is very simple and it will help to remove your Thickbox plugin(if you are using it).
First of all we need to insert the scripts necessary for creating the Thickbox. As I said earlier, WordPress is using jQuery and Thickbox already in its backend. So we just need to call the jquery and thickbox.
