How to create image sitemap for nextgen gallery please anyone tell me

is it possible to share your gtalk or skype id ..

Hi tollywoodandhra,

It appears your issue is now resolved, but if you do require further assistance with the WordPress SEO plugin, I would suggest contacting the plugin developer (https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/wordpress-seo) as they’d have a better understanding of the internal workings.

Cheers,
Mark.

Hi Mark I tried this, but seems that my images still arent being indexed.

Here is my site map https://www.softfocus.co.za/photography/portfolio-sitemap.xml all my images are in this portfolio section. I updated the NG code as you said, cleared my WP super Cache and saved the site map in SEO setting again after that. Any advice you can give?

Thanks a lot

Hi Soft Focus,

I’ve been looking at your site, and it appears the missing images in your sitemap are all being displayed with jQuery via the Justified Image Grid plugin.

I would imagine the WordPress SEO plugin would not be able to detect these images, as they’re included dynamically instead of with regular HTML.

I hope this helps!

Cheers,
Mark.

Hi Mark..

i took the screenshot of my webmasters sitemap and index status ….Please have a look and let me know your comment all the images are submitted Months Ago…

Thanks mark, I havent tried your solution yet, but will in the future sometime.

I’m having the same problem with my gallery images not being indexed. I currently do not use a SEO plugin (tried Yoast’s but it somehow corrupted my site – probably my own customizing fault though) but just a plugin that creates a sitemap only. Would you have any hint for me how to get Google to recognize my pictures nevertheless?

Hi mark,

I read through quite many posts now and tried quite some things to get my pictures indexed, but still it looks like that seo yoast and nextgen seem to be conflicting. Could you maybe help me out? Any idea how I can get the images indexed? The site is captain-racket.de/Squash-blog.

Thanks a lot.
Michael

Kello Mark Jeldi,
I did all the things you wrote above, but still get 0 images in my sitemaps. Can you please give me a hint what went wrong ?
Id appreciate your help.

e.g.
https://www.zeglujznami.pl/ngg_tag/mazury/

btw. wordpress seo generated only 4 galleries, while there are at least 9
https://www.zeglujznami.pl/galeria-zeglarska/

Thanks, anyone ?

Hello Everyone, hello Mark,

we have a music magazine at https://www.tribe-online.de and have problems finding our pictures back on Google. We use your great plugin to show off our concert shots.

It happens that we did a concert review on NAS, but when the author later checked google, only the article pic showed up, which was set without NextGen (nas site:https://www.tribe-online.de).

We use Google XML Sitemaps and wpSEO.

Thanks Patrik

Hi Everyone,

I use:
Wordpress 3.8
WordPress SEO 1.4.20
NextGEN Gallery 2.0.30

I have a little trouble with my sitemap.
https://yana-butenko.com/blog-type-sitemap.xml

It doesn’t include all images from NextGEN Gallery which added to post. For adding images in my posts I use “NextGEN Basic SinglePic” and “NextGEN Basic Thumbnails”. As a result my sitemap includes all singlepic and all preview singlepic, also it includes my post’s miniature.
But the sitemap not includes all images added through NextGEN Basic Thumbnails.

If you’ll see my sitemap, you can see that the first string of the sitemap shows that post has 3 images. There are 6 images in this post really. Here is code:

Mark,
I tried to use your code for sitemap.php but then the sitemap includes preview singlepic and post’s miniature, but not includes fullscreen singlepic. Here is code:

</image:image>
</url>

Help me, please. How can I add images which added through NextGEN Basic Thumbnails to my sitemap?

Thanks…

I am using Google sitemap for images. I have modified image-sitemap.php file to include nextgen 2.0 shortcodes. Please note at this point the code only respects “album_ids” “gallery_ids”, and “image_ids”. I have not coded for “exclusions” and “category” attributes etc. Please not I am coding in PHP after a decade (so there is room for improvement).

Plus I am working to make the same work for WP-SEO. I found “\plugins\nextgen-gallery\products\photocrati_nextgen\modules\ngglegacy\lib\sitemap.php” where I added code to take new shortcodes.
But it is not working. I am not sure how WP-SEO makes a call to this file. If someone can shed some light on that then I can come up with a solution.
A unit test with dummy post-content (in a variable) is working with the code I have. Just need to know who it gets triggered from WP-SEO. Would appreciate some help.

I think I got WP-SEO working. It was a problem with NextGen Sitemap.php

Here is the updated code for “\plugins\nextgen-gallery\products\photocrati_nextgen\modules\ngglegacy\lib\sitemap.php”

Please note that this is for nextgen 2.0 shortcodes. Also at this point the code only respects “album_ids” “gallery_ids”, and “image_ids”. I have not coded for “exclusions” and “category” attributes etc.
