Gallery Pages don't show images

    Hi NextGen:

    I like your plugin’s features – and really want to be able to use it for my website.

    I am on WP 4.4.2, and I just down-loaded the latest version of your plugin from my website’s plugin dashboard directly (2.1.23), installed it, activated it, and starting using it.

    Everything worked fine initially. I created 3 albums. The albums have 2, 7 and 1 galleries respectively.. I set up the shortcode on my photos gallery page to display albums, and included all 3. That all works fine. The page shows all the 10 galleries that were listed inside of the 3 albums.

    But now when I click on the individual gallery thumbnail, it goes to the correct url, but says there are no images.

    What is interesting, is that those gallery pages were displaying properly about an hour ago. The only thing I have done since then, is to continue to add images to the galleries, and create a couple new galleries.

    So obviously, I have maybe changed a setting to make the individual gallery pages to not display?.

    For example.. One Album is called CUBS. It has 2 galleries: 2014 Cuboree (with 3 photos) & 2014 Cubs General (with 2 photos)

    The page I added the shortcode to has the url of photo-gallery/. (Note: I changed the Permalink slug under ‘other options/misc’ from nggallery to gallery). So for the above example, the CUBS albums’ page is located at: photo-gallery/gallery/cubs (and this displays all the gallery thumbnails within this album correctly), and one of it’s gallery pages is at: /photo-gallery/gallery/2014-cubs-general – but this page won’t display the individual images that are inside of this gallery anymore. – it says there are no images.

    I can see the folder that contains those images here: wp-content\gallery\2014-cubs-general, so I know the images are actually there.

    I am currently on localhost, and didn’t want to purchase hosting and upload until I can get the website further along if possible.

    Can you help me with some ideas of Next Gen Gallery settings that I might have changed to cause this disconnect with the gallery pages not displaying?

    Thanks,
    SunnyOz

    “no images were found”

    That’s the error I am getting when I click on a compact album gallery image.

    Here is the code that is generated when I insert an album into a page:
    <img class=”ngg_displayed_gallery mceItem” src=”https://localhost/xxxx/xxxx/nextgen-attach_to_post/preview/id–936&#8243; alt=”” data-mce-placeholder=”1″ />

    This was created with using the green square “attach gallery to post” icon during a page edit – choosing these options: “Basic Compact Album”; “Display Source: Albums”; “Display Gallerys as: Thumbnails”; “Items per Page: 0”. (Zero Items per page gives you unlimited items on the page, right?)

    I read somewhere that using a 0 items per page for albums may cause problems? Is this what nextgen plugin doesn’t like?

    @sunnyoz – The concern I have is that you noted all was working as expected then it stopped working … which as you noted is likely due to something changing in your test environment. This is often due to things like caching plugins but in local sites they generally server little purpose.

    As it is, we would need to know more about the local environment or we may need to see this first-hand which would necessitate a remote installation.

    Thanks!
