Insert thumbnails in page

    I have recently successfully created 33 galleries and successfully embedded the thumbnails in several pages. Now, after a few months, I created a new gallery, but the single-thumbnail is not embedded in the page, but only the original size of the images. Also from previous galleries, single-thumbnails are not embedded. It seems that the plugin is the cause. I also tried to use a different theme: nothing changes. I don’t want to switch to another gallery, because Nextgen is very easy to use and works perfect in the past.
    Is there anything else I could check?

    My environment consists of:
    WordPress: 6.4.2
    Database: 5.7-MySQL
    PHP: 8.0
    Themes: SuperMag 3.1.0
    NextGen Gallery: 3.57
    Browser: Google Chrome

    Hi @2alfredo,

    Sorry to hear of the problem.

    Could you please let me know what method are you using in order to embed single images?

    Providing us with an example of the shortcode that you use may be of a great help for us.

    Thanks

    Hi Mihai,

    I don’t use shortcodes. I’ll proceed as follows:
    create a new gallery
    add photos (*. jpg)

    go to page
    edit page
    place the cursor at the desired location
    button add files
    NextGEN Gallery
    select & choose Gallery
    choose desired photo
    select thumbnail
    and button insert to post

    And now the problem comes: it does not appear the thumbnail but the image in original size.

    If I connect via FTP, I see the thumbnail directory in the corresponding gallery – so this works fine. But no thumbnails are inserted – not even from old galleries. I have successfully applied this to more than 30 galleries in the past – but now, it does not work.

    So I have installed an older version of NextGEN as a test – and everything works fine.
    I think the problem is in the latest version or possibly already in the previous versions. I haven’t used NextGEN for about 10 months. But in more than 30 Galleries this works

    Any ideas?

    Hi @2alfredo,

    I am sorry – it appears that this method for adding images was deprecated.

    Please try using singlepic shortcodes instead to insert single images into your pages: https://www.imagely.com/docs/singlepic/

    Sorry, I can’t believe this is outdated.
    I did several tests and found the following: it can’t work because the link to the thumbs directory is missing!

    In the current version (3.58) when adding thumbs to a page, the following is inserted (only a snippet):


    src=”https://url/wp/wp-content/gallery/galleryname/picturename. jpg”

    But the correct thing would be:


    src=”https://url/wp/wp-content/gallery/galleryname/thumbs/thumbs_picturename. jpg”

    So this is clearly a bug – please fix it.
