• Hi, I have uploaded a folder with images to my site ready to pull them into Nextgen.
    When I use the “import folder” option in the Add a gallery, its creates around 10 individual galleries with varying numbers of images from the folder.
    There is approx 150 images in the folder, all around 150K in size.

    Any ideas why this is happening as its not just creating one gallery?

    @pugnot – Are all of the images in the same folder, or do you have them in a hierarchy structure within the folder you uploaded? The “Import Folder” functionality will only get those images in the folder being imported, it does not do any recursive importing.

    @pugnot – What do you see under Gallery > Overview for your Server Settings?

    @pugnot – Those settings look fine …

    … there could be a plugin conflict going on here or at least it should be ruled out. Have you tried deactivating all of your plugins, clearing your browser cache (and site caches if you are using a caching plugin), then reactivating the NextGEN plugin?

    If this fixes the problem then it was likely one of the deactivated plugins that was causing an issue. Now, retrace your steps activating each plugin and re-checking to see if the problem returns. If it does then that last activated plugin was probably the one. Keep reactivating and in most cases it is also best to keep checking after each plugin, sometimes there may be more than one plugin on a site that will create an issue. If you do find one (or more) plugins causing this problem we would greatly appreciate your feedback on them so the developers may address them as soon as they can.

    Also to note, in rare cases it may be the theme itself that is causing a conflict so while you have just the NextGEN plugin activated you might consider temporarily switching to one of the default WordPress Twenty series themes and see if this corrects the issue as well.

    If the problem still persists after all of this we would still want to know, even more so, as we will still want to sort out the issue and may need additional details.

    Thanks!

    – Cais.
