Have you confirmed in Manage Albums that alibum 1 exists (although normally you see an error if it didn’t). Also try using a different shortcode eg [album id=1 template=compact].
I tried [album id=1 template=compact] and all the possible template options. No galleries show up.
I also could not get the imageviewer to work, no matter what I tried.
I gave up and am using a different system.
One thing I did notice about Nextgen Gallery while trying to solve this problem is that the current developers of the plugin do not respond to support threads or emails, to myself nor to many of the people on these forums, even when multiple people are having the same problem.
I know people have lives and jobs that keep them from responding in a timely manner, but NO response is pretty crappy.
Mike, I do appreciate your posting and trying to help.
Assuming everything was setup ok then it may have been memory problems – blank screens often indicate that.
What gallery plugin did you go with? I’m thinking of trying a shopping cart plugin as they seem to provide all the gallery like features I use.
I used webcomic. It works pretty well. 😉
