   How can I make a custom page template that automatically shows all my nextgen albums? I'd like to skip the process of manually adding album tags to a page.

   Any help would be appreciated!

   You can use the WP function do_shortcode() within your template to call the album shortcode.

   Hi Andy,

   I am pretty competent with wordpress however I have never come across this do_shortcode{} ...Are you able to post a demonstration?

   I will be forever in your debt as a NextGen Album Archive page is exactly what I am after. :)

   Right so I FINALLY found the solution to this so thought I would come back and let you all know.

   Add: ngg_paged_Galleries
   as a custom field within your wordpress page. And then set the amount of gallerys you wish your album to display per pagination.

   So for example :

   Go to your wordpress Admin
   Go to your gallery page
   Add this to your pages content [album id=1 template=compact]
   Under this you will have a box called 'Custom Fields'
   Add ngg_paged_Galleries to the name field
   and 5 to the value field

   Hope this helps everyone out!

   With thanks to Maurice's comments for the help!
