Strategerizer

I’ve seen this issue on a page that did not have any gallery content. It was just a very long page, with lots of markup. From my empirical testing I just fault WordPress as the cause and I assume the bug is that it would not display the page if it has more characters (or similar) than a certain threshold.

If I removed content from the page, no matter what particular content or from what part of the page, the page would display again.

I don’t think this is a NextGEN problem but I also did not investigate further on Google to see how pervasive the issue is with ‘regular’ page content.

Aha, figured this one out too. It is the second time I missed the little ‘Edit’ button that appears next to the drop-down selector in the Manage Albums screen. I guess the button is not always displayed there (if no album selected)…

Case solved (until next time ??

Alex, I guess I still have one query: how can I assign a page to an album?

As you can see I have a nested structure and I think that only albums can have children, not galleries. Albums can contain other albums or galleries.

My main album has two child albums: Travel and Abstract but I can’t figure out how to assign a page to them. In looking at the Manage Albums section I see three fields for each album – Name, Title and Page. Page is empty but I don’t see how to assign a page to the album.

Please advise.

I found it! Doing some Google searches I came accross a comprehensive review at https://dpotter.net/technical/2008/03/nextgen-gallery-review-image-management/ and based on that I realized you have a specific checkbox in the Options menu, on the Gallery tab.

In conclusion, 2 things:
– Case solved
– More importantly, thank you for an amzingly awesome piece of work – I am grateful for you contribution

Alex, I think I understand the purpose of the “page link to” field but it seems to not be working. My expectation is that clicking on the respective gallery will take you to the page you assign, rather than pass parameters in the URL. But I am not getting this behavior to work.

For example, check album at link below
https://mysite.komotion.com/gallery/

Click on first gallery takes user to
https://mysite.komotion.com/gallery/?album=1&gallery=7

Instead of taking them to
https://mysite.komotion.com/gallery/fairytale/

…even though I select that gallery “page link to” the ‘fairytale’ page. You can see that I have made those pages available in the menu bar at the top of the page.

I do not see any behavior change at all if I go to the plugin’s Manage Gallery, go to the Fairytale gallery and select a different page from the “Page Links to” drop-down.

ISSUE
The main negative consequence is the little breadcrumb navigation above the gallery becomes useless. Particularly in a deeply nested album breadcrumbs would be very useful to keep evidence of where you are and how you can move ‘up’ in the nested hierarchy.

I have latest version of the NextGEN Gallery and WordPress.

Am I missing something? If this is not how I am supposed to use the ‘Page Link To’, is there another way to achieve what I need – clicking on a gallery will show the gallery in its page and the URL show that page.

Thanks!

I figured it out – this error happens when there are no tweets in the account. Once I made a tweet, error went away!

Breezeseo,

I am also having a Twitter problem. After following steps above I am SOMETIMES able to have the twitter widget update to a new username. The bigger problem is that I cannot seem to ever display the tweets of a specific twitter account – “strategerizer”. If I get that account to display at all in the sidebar, it shows the following error inside the widget, under the image/link/# of followers:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /homepages/1/d94998140/htdocs/SHOWMEISTER/wp-content/themes/mystique.1.53/mystique/lib/widgets.php on line 87

For a while I’ll try to leave the error live at https://www.showmeister.com/
