[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Group galleries by album

    I know that you can list all albums by entering the shortcode [album id=x] but I was hoping you could separate the galleries under each album, possibly with the name of the album and such.

    I tried to do this by creating headers in the page I entered the shortcode in, like:

    <h3>Album 1</h3>
[album id=1]

<h3>Album 2</h3>
[album id=2]

    But when I click on the galleries displayed in the page, NextGen retains the HTML when it shouldn’t show up in the gallery browsing.

    So how can I add headers/groupings for the galleries? Is there a way to create a different page template for the gallery browsing? Or do I have to edit the core code of the plugin?

    I should also mention that this thread is related: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/239064

    If I understand what you are after, you can do this by making gallery pages and linking from albums to those instead.

    On the gallery management page for a gallery you’ll see a button to the right marked “Create new page” which will generate a page containing the gallery shortcode for you. Do this for each gallery.

    Then in the general Gallery Settings (Gallery tab in Options) make sure that Deactivate Gallery Page Link is unchecked.

    Then when you click on a gallery thumbnail in your page of albums, you go to that gallery’s dedicated page instead.
