Problem with weird image popup after "Remove Image Links" plugin was installed

hi. LOVE this theme, thanks for all the hard work – it shows! 🙂

need help with an error i have please – here’s my situation:

after installing demo content, whenever rolling over any images, the cursor turned into a finger pointer and the imaged popped up in lightbox when clicked.

undesirable.

so i installed “Remove Image Links” plugin:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-image-links/
http://stevehardsoft.com/remove-image-links-wordpress-plugin/

this seemed to properly correct this problem for all images – no finger pointer any more. i assumed images would also now not be clickable any more.

but…

even though no more finger pointer, images do something weird now – when clicked, a lightbox with left and right arrows appears and says “The image #1 could not be loaded.”

how to disable this weird feature so images are just images with no behaviors? i’ve searched for an hour but am lost.

please help.

thanks in advance!

bumping this up

thanks, emil, but it actually wasn’t that. i figured out that “modal image” is set to ON for every image in the demo content. thanks anyway and keep up the amazing work! this theme is incredible.
