[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Slideshow doesn't work and can't insert new galleries

Still looking for a fix to this myself.

WP: 3.4.2

NG: 1.9.6

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Same problem here: slideshows don’t work and can’t add existing galleries to our posts.

WP Multisite 3.4.2 / NG: 1.9.6

Thank you for the trouble ??

I am also having this problem.

WP 3.4.2 / NG: 1.9.6

I’m having the same problem. As a start on the Gallery -> Overview page there is a plugin check box that says that either my theme or one of the plugins conflicts with the gallery. Do you also have this warning?

I had the same problem. The gallery stopped working. It occurred that I had no “<?php wp_head(); ?>” in the header.php. Check your template. Hope this will help you.

Well, in my case the wp_head() is there. Moreover, the problem is on the backend, that shouldn’t be affected by the frontend template’s header. (Other parts of the theme have influence on the backend)

Same problem…any resolution?

Thanks papu, <?php wp_head(); ?> did it for me

I’m having the same issue and I’ve checked the plug-in on the overview page and everything checks out fine.

here’s my site

@pattiearnold: in your case the ngg css and javascript isn’t included in the page’s source, you should be having a line something like:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://otbstuff.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/js/ngg.slideshow.min.js?ver=1.06"></script>

Dow you have <?php wp_head(); ?> in the template header? (typically header.php)

@attila, here is what is in the header.php:

<?php
	global $suf_cpt_layouts, $suffusion_cpt_layouts;
	if (isset($suf_cpt_layouts)) {
		$suffusion_cpt_layouts = suffusion_get_associative_array($suf_cpt_layouts);
	}

	wp_head();
?>

Why wouldn’t that script be included?

I’m having this same problem once I put in the imagerotator. It worked as a plain slideshow before that. I’m using a purchased theme. How would I add that <?php wp_head(); ?>

Same problem, same question as mwhittle… How/where would I add that <?php wp_head(); ?>

According https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-ltphp-wp_head-gt-missing?replies=1
the
<?php wp_head(); ?>
line is supposed to be in your theme’s header.php, just above the closing </head>.

Nonetheless, I do find this line there, but still when I do a plugin check in the gallery overview, it says it would be missing.
