    Until now I have used the NextGEN-Gallery.1.9.13 (as it fulfilled my needs), but after updating WordPress to the newest v3.9.2, it was no longer possible to manage the Albums, as I got an general error message. I could still see the Albums, but not enter these.
    Therefore I updated NextGEN to the newest NextGEN Gallery (2.0.66.27).
    This however made some strange behaving in the Widget area, as some new pictures suddenly appeared 2/3rd down the list and some don′t ever show up – and still doesn′t.
    In Social Gallery (3.8.7) I used the Update Engine – and used the Clear Cache in NextGEN as well.
    I am using 2012 WP theme, and the only plug-ins running are (apart from the above mentioned):
    Disqus Comment System (2.77)
    Wordfence Security (5.2.1)
    Homepage in question: https://www.fotofocus.dk
    Can You figure that out, please?
    PS: For now, some images are in double, as I tried to make a new gallery “Nye billeder”, and copy some of the pictures (some which shows up as wanted and some which not shows up in the Widget) into that.
    By the way: I have cancelled all Social Networks, but still there is a call to Facebook from somewhere, when starting (or updating) the homepage

    @juelsbo – What settings are you using in the NextGEN Widget?

    – Cais.

    Standard I think:
    15 Thumbnails shown now (from 30, which was shown until now).
    Recently added
    Enabled IE8 Web Slices (what ever that is)
    W/H: 65×50
    All Galleries selected

    As You can see, 4 pictures from one user uploaded 9 hours ago shows up all-right, but 3 pictures from another user didn′t show up in the widget.
    They were however all shown correctly in the galleries.
    Comments on Disqus, that was established those 9 hours ago, has now gone?

    Comments has returned: By turning “Use Social Gallery Pages” off, the comments are back from Disqus – but that has nothing to do with the missing images, right?

    Pictures still not showing up in Widget, when uploaded by administrator or editor – but can be seen in the “normal” Gallery.

    @juelsbo – I’m currently seeing 15 images from multiple different galleries (author?) but it does appear there may be more recent images to be displayed than those being shown.

    It may be best for you to submit a Bug Report (https://www.nextgen-gallery.com/report-bug/ … please reference this topic) for this issue as we are seeing another issue with the NextGEN Widget which may or may not be related but this one should be reviewed all the same with it.

    We may need log in (and FTP) credentials for your WordPress installation as well, please include those with your Bug Report.

    Thanks!

    Those pictures are uploaded by 3 different people – the latest one by me (and is not showing up in the widget).
    Apart from those pictures in double as mentioned above, there are 4 new pictures not shown in the widget, but correctly in the galleries (whatever those might be).
    The gallery “Nye Billeder/New pictures” are all copies from the original galleries (I placed them there, as some of them didn′t show up in the widget).
    You can see the first 4 pictures in here, that is not in the widget.
    On the other hand, in the widget You can see 4 pictures, that correctly showed up in the widget (and therefor is not copied to the gallery “Nye billeder”).
    I have send in an Bug Report.
    Thanks for your support.

    @juelsbo – Thanks for the Bug Report (I haven’t seen it yet) but will respond to it once received. Let’s keep the conversation there for the time being as well.

    Thanks, again!

    Another strange incident: When a picture is deleted, it remains in the widget – but as a “broken” picture.
    It will go away only, if the “Clear image cache” button is pressed and the cache is emptied – which was not necessary until now (ie. this version).
    Does it sound as a faulty connection between the main program and the widget?
    I could delete those pictures in double, but will wait until further notice.

    I uploaded the old NextGEN version 1.9.3 in its own folder and can now switch back and forth (1.9.3 <—-> 2.0.66.27).
    I managed to get the old version working again (without any error), whereas the new version continues to make trouble as described above.
    If You visit my homepage now, it′s the old NextGEN 1.9.3, You see….

    @juelsbo – We do not generally recommend rolling back to a NextGEN Legacy version, or running both a Legacy and current version on ones site but if all is working well we can leave it with you as is.

    For the issue with the broken images, yes, you should be clearing the image cache to see immediate results … otherwise the plugin should normally sort this out within an hour or so after you delete the image(s).

    I have only one version running at a time, and using the old version brought back all the pictures (in correct positions) AND the Disqus comments again – so for now, I will use the old version, but from time to time return and see, if future versions will do the trick ??
    Thank You in advance.
