Hi Cais,

Basically as I said above, I have resolved the problem by rolling back. If I find the time I will do the bug thing.

Actually I rolled back to a previous version of Nextgen and problem solved. I think it is version 1.9.12 I found out how to do it by looking at https://www.nextgen-gallery.com/how-to-rollback-a-version/

Any more help on this? Can I reinstall without losing existing images and galleries?

Would it be an idea to reinstall and could this be done without losing existing images and galleries?

Thanks. I have checked for plug in conflicts and that is not an issue. I am a bit of a novice at this. Which folders and files should I check and how? Files 644 or 640 and directories 755 or 750?

You also mentiond lack of detail – what would you like that will help diagnosis?

I am not sure whether this is a similar problem or different. I am getting a “Failed to extract images from ZIP – 0 images were uploaded” message.

Anyone know how to get around this?

Thanks

Same problem – created a gallery then uploaded images. Whene I went to mage Gallery – no images to be seen, Tried the scan thing and it told me that it contained no images.

What was your solution? Roll back to a previos version of Next Gen??

Thanks Barry, I threw caution to the wind and updated on my Perth Morris site. The fact that you can integrate the event into the main blog loop solves the ptoblem that prevented me from upgrading in the first place – it is a pain to do the same thing twice but now you don’t have to. Cheers

The other solutions didn’t help for me but the short code worked okay of course. One thing I am wondering is whether the change of a hosting site may be causing a few issues. I am now having some problems trying to upload pdf documents to our word press site since the change over. It could be a similar thing.

I am not sure about “empty the plugin’s trash on the back end” How? Because I am back to 1.6.5 there is no separate event and there was one post in the “trash” but it had nothing to do with the event.

I have deactivated a few that I wasn’t using and it appears to work okay now. However I seem to have an extra event in there appearing in the event list. It may have been the event when I was using 2.03 but if you visit the site and click on more info – it cannot find it.After the 15th it should disappear anyway I would think. Thanks for your help. The website I am looking after is the one for the Perth Morris Men in Western Australia. Thanks for your help with this.

Hi,

Thanks for that. I suspected it the other day but couldn’t actually rename the old folder. I have now successfully installed it but something weird has happened re the Widgets. I can no longer drag them to the right hand side so that the event list will appear. Any of them. Also cannot click to change settings. I am not sure what I have done. If all else fails I could go back to the latest version. Any ideas? Cheers,

Message to Shane, Hi Shane you previously talked me through rolling back to a previous version of the Events Calendar but I am getting an error. I downloaded a Zip file for 1.6.5 from the link you provided. Then I added a plug in by browsing to the zip file. It fails and the reason seems to be that the folder for the events calendar plug in already exist. What is the best way around this problem? Thanking you in advance.

I have persisted with the new version but I have noticed that if I edit the event I then have to re input all the address and contact details. Is it just me? For example, after we have had a dance practice I edit the event to put the date of the next dance practice, However I also have to add (again) the details of where the practice hall is and my name and contact details. I probably should roll back to 1. something since I don’t recall having to do tat with that one. There s some good stuff about the new versionie bringing up a calendar to select a date etc.

Thanks Shane. We have three more events before Christmas and then nothing for a while so I am thinking that it would be sensible to do the roll back when there are no events left. I probably won’t ned to restore aback up in that case.
