    2.0.0 led to that MVC-Error so I deactivated NextGEN

    Just updated to 2.0.7 and activated it
    Galleries show up again, but lightbox is not working.

    Main problem:

    the character set changes to ISO-8859-1 in Chrome, and Windows-1252 in Firefox. Making the blog unreadable. (Sourcecode shows UTF-8.)

    If I deactivate NextGEN the encoding is UTF-8 and the content shows up correctly in all browsers. Activating again: B?? ??en

    German translation package does not work neither.

    What to do with the encoding? That’s the prior problem. ??

    Please help.

    ok, found out another hint:

    starting with the wrong encodet blogpost with images in thumbnail-view.

    when you switch to slideshow-view (the link above the images) the encoding turns into correct UTF-8.
    (But opens the single article-view if you do this from the mainpage.)

    Back to “thumbnail-view”: wrong encoding.

    Perhaps this helps to find the solution.

    install nextgen 2.0 again and “reset settings to standart options” link under the gallery menu (at the end of gllry menu in 2.0 version), then remove the nextgen gallery 2.0 from ftp, then upload 2.0.7 then re-activate nextgen 2.0.7 plugin and change your last settings from gallery menu other option display settings… choose lightbox or fancybox… others have problems… mvc error must be gone … I correct my problem in this way. but this is not an absolutely solition, ? saw some forum sites, there is a bug about mvc templates in 2.0.7 version… I DONT Know its real ! I saw it only …

    Thanks for answer.

    With 2.0 nothing worked at all. Only the MVC-Error on the site, no further posts or pages showed up. I had to deactivate NextGEN to see my blog at all. Without pictures though but it was to read again at least.

    MVC Error was gone since update to 2.0.7 and the blog showed up again with NextGEN activated. Since then I got the encoding errors, missing lightbox, a white page when adding files in a new post using NextGen-Gallery etc.
    Uploading only works with the normal WordPress Editor facilities.

    I tested all lightbox effects (lightbox, fancybox, thickbox). Nothing. works.

    I do not have FTP access to the site so I can not rollback to any previous version (it’s a huge but non profit site, a project for children which I “admin” for free).
    If I had FTP access data, my choice would be 1.9.13, which worked great.

    I will wait for anything to happen.
    What means: a working update or any quick solution for the wrong endcoding I can edit with the plugin-editor.

    @behadel, @acemiprof: The MVC template error has been resolved.

    On the encoding issue, if you are willing, can you please submit a bug report with WordPress and FTP credentials? We’re working on that issue right now:

    Ok. Thanks so much.

    Update 2.0.11 did it

    No more encoding mess. -> working fine

    thickbox now OK
    fancybox now OK
    lightbox now OK

    all 3 worked after editing the URL that included mysteriously full server path in between.

    – (Show Advanced Settings)
    – Stylesheet URL and Javascript URL and deleted the “var/www/html/username” – part of all URLS.

    From:
    https://www.mydomain.com/var/www/html/username/wp-content/plug…

    into
    https://www.mydomain.com/wp-content/plug…

    And so it worked.

    This issue can be closed.

    (Concerning issues I got with upload and insert a gallery into post I am going to look for a correspondend thread).

    This one is resolved.
