    I have added the shortcode: [nggalbum id=3 template=download] to my page where gallery is shown.

    When I go to view page, I get a message: “no images were found”

    When I remove this shortcode, the images show up.

    I do not understand what I am doing wrong. The instructions on how to make this plugin work are not very clear… at least to me.

    Any help in this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    G’day SUB,

    I’m guessing that you are running NextGEN Gallery version 2 by Photocrati. If that’s the case, then please see this other support thread — the last post explains how to get it working with NGG2.

    I’ve reported the bug to Photocrati, but they are yet to do anything about it.

    You might find it easier to just switch to NextCellent Gallery, which is a fork of NextGEN Gallery from before Photocrati made its radical changes.

    cheers,
    Ross

    Hey Ross,

    Thanks for the input.

    I have switched to the NextCellent Gallery… and yes it works.

    I have a hard time understanding why developers works so hard, only to breaks functionality that their users need. It would be understandable if they incorporated that functionality into their updates.

    This is still only a basic gallery though. Now I cannot get the image preview to work. I either do image preview or have the thumbs and slideshow available… but not all three. A little frustrating.

    I am looking at changing my photo gallery portion of my site to Piwigo and linking it to a tab in WordPress. I have been working on getting my site up for a couple of weeks and this photo gallery has been a real issue with WordPress. I understand that that is a weakness in WordPress. No biggy.

    Thanks for your help and advice.
