Sunday, after years of working, my HugeIT image galleries broke.

I’ve tried contacting them but no answer. I suspect they have ceased trading.

I’d like to move to NextGen but I’m no techie.

Can I iinstall it and, somehow, import the 1200 – 1500 images in the broken HugeIT galleries? (Doing this manually would be a nightmare and I assume all the necessary information is in the database?)

If sor, how and how easy? Please remember my technical experience is close to zero.

Many tthanks.

Inside my website I can see apparently that all the photos are, although I cannot see the thumbnail if the name of each photo and the weight of the file appear

Throughout my website there are some galleries that do work and others that do not, I am desperate to fix this whole mess

I have a weird issue that i can see in different forums on the forum when searching for this issue – but just no-one quite having the exact same issue

I am using wordpress 5.32
I am using next gen 3.2.23

Gallery path has never been changed from the default – wp-content/gallery/

however – when new galleries get added on – they are doing weird things

1 – a gallery folder is being created in my public_html folder – being called the name of the gallery (rather than images going into wp-content/galllery/nameofgallery

2 – If I do a thumbnail crop – the thubnails now call to seperate folders for each crop that don’t exist at all

so its like this

new gallery gets added – lets call it

Pictures (i check ftp and can see its not went to wp-content/gallery – its went to public_html/Picture)

I go to add the gallery to a page and want to show this as thumbnails & ask next gen to crop these

All of the thumbnails show as broken links/no folder get created on the server

And this path get used for one thubnail

https://www.sitename.com/844/120x150x100/crop/12efe84fbf411fb7bad2615692315861

this get used for the next thumbnail

https://www.sitename.com/845/120x150x100/crop/4d3c36c7b48107c9cf61504e063568d8

its the weirdest thing ever !

I am going to try this suggested fix from 2 years ago (but the issue is not quite teh same)

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/nextgen-gallery-image-paths/

No new functionality/plugin has been added to the site – but I do keep the site software & modules up to date

Any ideas/suggestions – I am happy to work with code if there is something in any of the core nextgen files that can be changed…

i tried to fix and some features are back but all galleries are broken .
Any sugestion ?

I developed my site in a subfolder and changed the site url and moved the index.php and htcaccess files to the root folder, which is standard procedure as the client doesn’t want their url to be “humphreyconstruction.net/wp”. I’ve done this literally dozens of times with no issue but for some reason this time all of my galleries that I built in NextGEN gallery have quit working. I reverted it back to the subfolder and they worked fine but when I change the site url and move the index and htcaccess files it no longer works. I have checked all other plugins, updates, etc and that’s not it. It breaks when I change the site url.

How do I fix this? Is there a way to fix it? I really need to get this up and running for my client as the site was supposed to go live today.

The url is https://www.humphreyconstruction.net

Thanks,

Ryan
