Dear All, 
To turn a bunch of pictures into a full-fledged interactive gallery using MDB Lightbox you need two things in your project:
1) Proper <code>html</code> structure in place, including nested <code>div</code>, <code>figure</code> and <code>img</code> tags with proper classes in place (check out <a href="https://mdbootstrap.com/javascript/lightbox/#basic-example">the example here</a>) 
2) JavaScript initialization of nifty scripts doing the whole work for us. It means that we need the aforementioned <code>Init function</code> somewhere in our JS files. The preferred way to do it is to create an <code>any-name-you-like-really[dot]js</code> file in your JavaScript files directory, and then put the initializing script inside the file and save it. You need to attach your newly created JS file to the <code>html</code> document exactly the same way as all the others are attached - in between <code>script</code> tags, with <code>src</code> attribute pointing at location of <code>any-name-you-like-really[dot]js</code> file. There is one requirement - it must come after <code>mdb.js</code>, <code>mdb.min.js</code> or any other file that might be needed to run our splendid LightBox Gallery.
In case of questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Have you checked the filepath for you JS file? If so - try pasting the lightbox script at the bottom of your html file - just before the closing body tag.

@Aleksandear Have you uploaded it on the server, or you've tested on your desktop? Don't know why, but it doesn't work until you upload it or run on local server.
