NGG Image Chooser Toolbar Button Issue
-
We’re using the Image Chooser toolbar button with the latest version of NGG. However, every time we hit the button, we get this error message:
Required NextGEN Gallery was not found!
Anyone know how to fix? Please advise. Thank you.

It seems that photocrati have renamed or changed the function that my plugin uses to determine the existence of the nextgen gallery plugin. So I will have to adjust my plugin to the new name and possibly changed functionality.
Unfortunately the new nextgen gallery versions (both 2.0.0 and 2.0.7) break my URL rewriting, so I cannot install them. Which means that it probably will be some time until I can do the modifications.
Sorry. ?? I promise that I will get to it as soon as possible.As my problems with the nextgen gallery persists, I have set up a test instance of WordPress 3.6 with NextGen Gallery 2.0.7 and NextGEN Gallery Image Chooser 1.0.0. In this instance the image chooser works without any issues. So it does not seem to be a general problem, but due to your specific installation.
Are you sure you have enabled the NextGen Gallery plugin and not just installed it? That’s the only cause I can think of.
I have the same issue
version of your plugin 1.0.0
WP 3.6.1
NGG 2.0.31I get the following response:
No data receivedUnable to load the webpage because the server sent no data.
Error code: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE@baspisa
I’m using exactly the same combination in my installation, and cannot reproduce your error. So, to have any chance to fix this, I need some more information.- Do you get the error in the main window, or the pop-up?
- Is this a fresh installation, or did the error occur after an update?
- Which other plugins do you use? Have you tried disabling all plugins except the gallery and the image chooser?
- Which language do you use?
Hi Umertin,
Error occures in the pop up.
Error occurs when updating to NGG 2.0.31. It still works fine if i downgrade NGG to 1.9Site is in english (back-end as well)
Can’t check the plugins at the moment. Will do when I get home from work.
regards
BasAdditional update: just tested it on my test server and there it also occures (So that is a different install of everything)
Okay just did a quick test on my test server, deactivated all plugins but yours and NGG and error still occurs. So dont know how I can help you further
Thanks for the additional information. I just created a fresh test installation, installed ngg 1.9.13, the image chooser plugin, and then upgraded ngg to 2.0.31, but still no problem ??
I even switchted to a language not supported by the image chooser, but it simply fell back to English.So there must be something to your specific constellation (which is common to both your production and test servers) that causes the image chooser to fail.
I only can recommend uninstalling the image chooser (not the gallery!) and reinstalling it.
If this doesn’t help, I’m at my wit’s end. Sorry.
Deleted it, and re-installed, no succes.
It opens a new window with url mydomain.net/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery-image-chooser/nextgen-ic.php?nggic_tinymce=1&ver=358-25336
but there is also no difference in URL when i switch NGG versions
What is new now with version 1.9.13 is the following
Warning: key_exists() [function.key-exists]: The first argument should be either a string or an integer in /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery-image-chooser/nextgen-ic.php on line 155 Warning: key_exists() [function.key-exists]: The first argument should be either a string or an integer in /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery-image-chooser/nextgen-ic.php on line 155
There seems to be something unexpected in your album or gallery metadata. As this only is a warning, I don’t know if this is the reason for the failure, but it might be.
To further analyze this, I need the data structure that the NextGen Gallery delivers to my plugin. I have created a debug version of the plugin file. Please create a backup copy of nextgen-ic.php in wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery-image-chooser/, put the debug code below in the original file, open a post and press the image chooser button (with NextGen Gallery 2.x installed). In the pop up window you should see the array with the albums and galleries. You can edit the names and slugs to hide private information, but must leave the rest, so I might see what causes the problem.<?php /* Plugin Name: NextGEN Gallery Image Chooser Plugin URI: Description: Comfortable image chooser for the NextGEN Gallery.

First! Thanks for your help!
her is the response from the debug version.

hope this will help
Ok, as I expected, the albums number 2 and 4 have strange gallery entries ([0] =>) meaning the album has a child object (album or gallery) but NextGen Gallery won’t tell anything about it. So the image chooser does not know what to do with it.
I expect either corrupted data in your database, a permission issue, or a bug in NextGen Gallery, as an entry without an id definitely is wrong. But this is out of my area of expertise, as I simply call a function of the gallery.Anyway, I have put an updated version of nextgen-ic.php here (zipped, so the web server does not attempt to interpret it). This new version simply ignores the empty entries, as this is the best I can do if the gallery doesn’t tell me anything about the object.
Can you please try this version and let me know if it cures the warnings and possibly also the error?
