BUMP

I’m assuming you’re referring to this line in gd.thumbnail.inc.php:

// increase memory-limit if possible, GD needs this for large images
// @ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');

I’ve uncommented the line and set it to 64mb, which is the limit my ISP allows for PHP. However, thumbnail generation is working in NGG (except for a few very large images). The gallery I’m attempting to do a slideshow of only has nine images, all 1500×1800, none larger than 470k.

Increasing the above memory limit to 64mb didn’t work.

all files used by imagerotator

Unfortunately, I don’t know what files are used by imagerotator, aside from the images themselves. The directory of the image gallery I’m trying to use and its thumbs dir are both 755; the images and their thumbs are 644. imagerotator.swf is also 644.

I’m running Firefox 5.0 on Ubuntu 11.04.

1. Deactivated all plugins.
2. Upgraded to latest flash, now 11,0,1,60 installed
3. Reactivated Nextgen Gallery; added NG slideshow widget to sidebar.
4. Started Firefox, went to site.

Result: no difference. Flash works for me everywhere else (Youtube, etc.), just not here.

Same problem. The NG Slideshow widget simply shows the spinner, no images.

For the JW imagerotator I’ve done the following:

Uploaded imagerotator.swf to both uploads/ and plugins/nextgen-gallery/.
On Gallery/Options/Slideshow tab:
1. “Search now” auto-located uploads/imagerotator.swf
2. Checked “enable flash slideshow”
3. Enabled navigation bar
4. Saved changes

With flash enabled, NG Slideshow widget now shows a black box with spinner. Again, images never display.

Something that may be related – I’ve installed the NGG Video Extend plugin. When I add its shortcode to an image description per the installation instructions, when I click on the image thumbnail, the lightbox pops up and says “loading…” The movie never plays.

Also tried the NGG monoslideshow plugin. Installed and activated. But when I added

[monoslideshow id=3 w=450 h=350]

(id 3 is a valid gallery ID) to a post, nothing displayed.

Looks like a flash configuration issue?

Never mind. I just discovered the “Page Link to” setting.

However, “Page Link to” doesn’t work unless one first goes to Gallery – Options – Gallery tab and unchecks “Deactivate gallery page link”. That’s not at all obvious, and took me over an hour of googling to discover.

Maybe that could be made more obvious in some future version?
