I had the same issue. jQuery colobox works great if I put my gallery shortcode (nextgen gallery actually) in the post but if I put the shortcode in a custum field, the image opens in colorbox but no prev/next nor any slideshow.
I finally found a word around and changed the code jquery.colorbox.wrapper.js (version 4.3), in the section :

//if groudId is colorbox-manual, set groupId to "nofollow" so that images are not grouped
if (ColorboxLocal.colorboxGroupId === "manual") {
    ColorboxLocal.colorboxGroupId = "nofollow";

Replace the “nofollow” by whatever you want and jquery colorbox will group the images and the slideshow will work. As this will group any images anytime, you might want to be a bit more restrictive and add one more check to do it only on images which are part of a gallery.

I don’t use nextgen slideshow so I can’t help on that. I just worked a bit on the gallery to make the thumbs responsive.

Do you mean that you want the size of the thumbs to change according to the width of your page so that you always have the same number of thumbs in a row ?

And if it the drag and drop behaves rather awkwardly, just follow this link

The button is still present in my case with 1.9.3. Just between the gallery settings section and the actual gallery.
Check in the Gallery->Options and than the Gallery tab that you have Chose Sort thumbnails : Custom order.
Otherwise, the ‘sort gallery’ button is not present.

That’s actually the case already. After choosing a gallery in the manage gallery section, between the section gallery settings and the actual gallery, there is “sort gallery”. Once there, you can drag and drop the thumbs the change to order and than click on “update sort order”.
The drag and drop is a bit choppy though but after a while, you get sort of use to it !!

PS : To enable this feature, you first have to go in the Gallery->Options and than the Gallery tab. Chose Sort thumbnails : Custom order.
Otherwise, the ‘sort gallery’ button is not present.

@unwohltaeter, could you elaborate a bit more on how you acheived to use capty in conjunction with JJ NextGen JQuery Carousel ? I’ve got very little experience with WP …

I tried to do that, added in my header.php:

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="wp-content/themes/twentyten-child/jquery.capty.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="wp-content/themes/twentyten-child/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="wp-content/themes/twentyten-child/jquery.capty.min.js"></script>

And in my footer.php all the function #default stuff and so on but it doesn’t work. Loading the jquery.js breaks JJ NextGen JQuery Carousel (multiple jquery issue I suppose) but if not loaded, nothing happens.

Well, I had it many times yesterday but strangely, not a single time when working on it tonight. I wonder if the params don’t have an impact on that since I was trying many different params yesterday.
Now I’ve got :
<?php echo do_shortcode('[jj-ngg-jquery-carousel html_id="jcarousel" skin_class="jcarousel-skin-tango" gallery="1" width="180" height="120" gap="10" visible="4" scroll="2" wrap="null"]'); ?>

I’ve got the same problem from time to time ??
