    An earlier request for our site
    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/adding-galleries-save-doesnt-function?replies=14#post-5842982

    The issue is album one will display galleries using the shortcode [ album id=1 ] (extra spaces added), but when the gallery is selected the page is displayed with the message “no images were found”.. The problem can be seen in the status bar when hovering over the link that the link is missing the gallery name. Giving ‘www/SiteName/index.php/nggallery/firstname-lastname?page_id=1’, while other galleries that work give ‘www/SiteName/index.php/nggallery/pagename/firstname-lastname?page_id=##’. The simple solution would be to make another album and move all the image galleries into it.

    This goes back to when the site was hacked and we were assisted in updating and rebuilding, Photocrati looked at our site at that time. After the Hack updating Album 1 had all the galleries thrown out and not able to reload them. During the rebuild a work around solution in place was to link each gallery to a page with the gallery short code on it. The problem this creates is the backend of the dashboard page files becomes bloated, making future maintainence intensive.

    This is further to the discussion that started 5 months ago. The site was updated and is currently running WordPress 4.1, Twenty Fourteen Theme, Akismet, All-in-one Event Calendar by Time.ly, BackUpWordpress, Fourteen Extend, NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati (2.066.37).

    I am a photo club photographer that has been given the task of managing the web site, I am not a programmer and have worked to this point from checking on line forums, using Web matrix to build an offline site for testing and exploring with MS DOM F12 (that I struggle with).

    The site was handed back to me in September, and some small tweeks and customization has been done. All tweeks or changes have been made in a child theme (not currently running) , and the 2014 theme/nggallery for compact and album templates plus CSS in wp_content/ngg_styles. All approved and upgrade safe.

    All files are current except Time.ly, the last update produced Latin1 characters in text in place of text puntuation characters – That is a different issue to solve later as it does not affect the current issue.

    With TwentyFourteen and NextGEN Galleries active (All other pluging deactivated), NGG Cache cleared, the problem still exists and is repeatable as explained below. The Theme has also been switched to TwentyThirteen with no change in result.

    The issue of Album 1 is repeatable with a gallery moved from Album 15 to Album 1 and back to Album 15. Album 15 (and all except Album 1) works perfect, Album 1 is missing the gallery name in the link.

    I have attempted to back track the link, but searching the error mesage came up with a file by the same name, but can find no link to it.

    I would like to track the link to understand how the error occures, is it a software bug or something left from the hack. Where do I start tracking the link?
