here, url is the link to the media file that you wish to open in lightbox and hyperlink is the anchor text/image.

</code></pre>
Pop up Vimeo video in lightbox
<pre><code>[wp_colorbox_media url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1284237" type="vimeo" hyperlink="click here to pop up vimeo video"]

Apply Custom CSS

WP Colorbox

Having to go to a website to see how to use this should be a huge no-no. Will not recommend this plugin to anyone.

Missing in-plugin documentation
