Aldert Vaandering

Added you to developers. Sorry to everyone else for the lack of support. I might take a look at all the issues myself if I get the chance!

Check and see if that theme is registering and enqueuing it’s own version of jQuery somewhere. If so, try commenting out that code (or replacing it with wp_enqueue(‘jQuery’);) and try again. That is really the only reason I could think of that would make it incompatible and it’s unfortunately a bad practice that many theme developers still persist on doing.

Thanks for your reply. However the plugin is calling jQuery as it should

wp_enqueue( 'jquery' );

Meaning it will load the noConflict version of jQuery supplied by wordpress.

The fact that it doesn’t work for you or wimwam is very likely caused by a theme or plugin that is dequeuing jquery and calling it’s own (possibly horribly outdated) version. That said, I can’t say for sure. Hard to tell without having the exact same setup.

huh? That’s weird. It’s working for me without issues. I get no errors or even warnings… Curious

Oh fuuuuu…. Accidently left that line of code in and didn’t notice because I have the include available.

I removed the line so you can redownload 3.2.6 or you can do it manually by opening ngg-nivoslider-main.php and removing line 5 (require_once WPNGG_NIVOSLIDER_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/includes/mr-image-resize.php’;)

So sorry for the inconvenience!

Okay since I am still on the move it took a bit longer to update than expected but version 3.2.6 is here now!

= 3.2.6 =
* Fixed: Compatibility with NextGen 2.0+
* Fixed: Settings not working with single pic gallery (Thanks John!)
* Fixed: Slide events not working due to being enclosed in apostrophes (Thanks alecboom0)
* Changed: Slider will now start on Document.Ready instead of Window.Load, meaning that it will not wait for all images to be fully loaded before starting
* Added: Options to display gallery title and/or description (showGalleryTitle, showGalleryDesc)

So basically what you’re looking for is having your alt text added as alt=”…” in the <img> element? If so that’s a matter of tweaking the plugin a bit.

Specifically just look for
$output .= ‘<img src=”‘;
in the ngg-nivoslider-widget.php
and change it to
$output .= ‘<img alt=”‘ . $image->alttext. ‘” src=”‘;

quick fix for now.
I’ll add it to the next version perhaps.

Sorry but I don’t really understand what you are trying to do…

This might be a CSS issue. Without knowing the exact setup I can’t really help.

I’m updating the plugin as I type this. NextGen v2 will be supported and a few bugs have been fixed, as well as new features added. My apologies for the delay everyone

In the new version (yet to be uploaded) I’ve added two new options. showGalleryTitle and showGalleryDesc.

I’ve changed this to be
$output .= “\n jQuery(document).ready(function() {“;

which means the slider will start the moment the HTML document has loaded even if the images and other objects have not.

I will definitely upgrade the plugin to be compatible with the new version of NextGen. However I am still considerably busy the coming month(s) so progress might be slow depending on how much work it requires. My apologies for the delay, but please bare with me.

If you want to alter the CSS for the nivo slider please consider altering one of the themes supplied or by creating a new theme. You can find these in the themes directory.

At this time I am unable to replicate this issue. Can you explain the issue a bit more thoroughly? Is the nivoslider missing a encompassing div that is supposed to be there when used as a widget?
