NextGen Gallery doesn’t load

  • I would like to use ALM but I’ve some problems.

    On my page I use this statement for displaying the posts:
    [ajax_load_more post_type=”post” category=”bangkok” order=”ASC” post_per_page=”1″ max_page=”0″]

    I would like to load the posts with full content, so that I can scroll through all filtered posts.

    <article>
   <h1><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
   <p class="entry-meta">
       <?php the_time("F d, Y"); ?>
   </p>
<p>
   <?php the_content(); ?>
</p>
</article>

    The post are displayed properly an infinite scrolling is working fine, but I have some NextGen Gallery-Slideshows in my posts and there is only a placeholder shown with a small picture and the text “NextGen gallery Click to edit”. This image is normaly shown in design mode.

    Any idea what to do?

    Thanx in advance!

    Alex

    HI asefrin,
    That sounds a bit strange! I don’t have experience with NextGen.

    Can I replicate this with the free version of NextGen or do I need an add-on or anything?

    Hi dcooney,
    I’m using the free version of the NextGen plugin.
    All you have to do is uploading some pictures in a gallery. In my post I used this gallery simply by letting the plugin generating the code. This what the result in HTML looks like:

    <img class="ngg_displayed_gallery mceItem" src="https://scenic-world.net/nextgen-attach_to_post/preview/id--7047" alt="Kings palace, Bangkok" data-mce-placeholder="1" />

    I tried for an hour to create and insert a nextgen gallery and wasn’t successful.
    What is the shortcode you are using to display your gallery?

    I didn’t use NGG with shortcode in this posts because I exclude some images from the gallerie and this is much more easier with the visual component in the editor.

    In your post you have to choose the visual tab of the wp editor. In the symbol bar there is a green icon (attach NGG to post). Then you get a popup window from NGG, where you select NextGen Basic Slideshow. The next step is to define the Source (Galleries) and in Galleries select one the galleries. After that click on the button Insert Displayed Gallery. That’s it!

    I’m sorry that it took you so long to setup. By the way, the look and feel of ALM is much more intuitive than using NGG.

    No worries, I’ve wanted to try NextGen for awhile now… So, yea the issue I’m coming up against is my ngg shortcode doesn’t render with Ajax calls. It works fine in standard post view.

    Is that what is happening for you? The shortcode rendering as plain text?

    Can you ask on the NextGen forums how to run the shortcode in an ajax call?

    Yes, that’s it!
    I can write it at the NextGen Forum but I’m not sure that I’ll understand the answer if I get one;-)

    Hi dcoony,

    did the link help you any further?

    Sorry for the delay, the new forum layout is making support a change since there is no way to order by most recent reply. it’s brutal.

    I had a look, but unfortunately I’m not really sure what they mean by Ajax Load Mor(ALM) is stopping the loading of NextGen scripts.

    ALM uses admin-ajax to load posts and it’s not blocking anything.

    Not really sure how to solve this one.

    Maybe the img tag is only rendered as a picture not as the containing slideshow?

    I would love to get a 5 site license to have different templates, but I although need the slideshows. Dilemma…

    I hear you, And I want you to purchase that as well ??

    I just don’t understand what the NGG author is saying.

    Can you post a page sample so I can see what you are using to render NextGen?

    I’m trying this shortcode on a page and it’s rendering as plain text in the Ajax call.
    [ngg_images gallery_ids=”1″ display_type=”photocrati-nextgen_basic_slideshow” gallery_width=”600″ gallery_height=”400″]
    But when I view the full post detail (single) page it renders the shortcode perfectly.

    @dcooney I composed a page for you: http:\\scenic-world.net\alm. That’s how the problem looks like.

    There is a new post http:\\scenic-world.net\alm2 where you can see the code I used for the slideshows. How I display posts are at the beginning of this thread.

    Thanks for your help!

    @dcooney I had to move my website on a new server and it took some time to get it running. I hope you didn’t get 404 meanwhile. Now the website is running again.
