• I just noticed that the few places that I have used the nggtags shortcode (posts done about 2 years ago with NextGen), those galleries are no longer displayed.

    An example that previously worked: [nggtags gallery=sa5_interstage]

    I really have no clue when the use of the nggtags broke, but I just tried it on a clean localhost installation using both twentyfourteen theme and twentyten. In both cases, the resulting browser page shows no signs of a nggtags gallery, nor even any shortcode text or error messages. Those codes are not displayed at all.

    So nggtags seems to definitely be broken.

  • I have same thing noticed today, therefore I post it here too. Soooo hoping it would work again….the [nggtags gallery=tag1,tag2,tag3]
    not showing anymore, very sad as I use the tag galleries a lot in posting articles.

    Any other tag plugin available? Or would it be possible to make tagging part of NextCellent?

    PS. I’ve tried everything, but no result…., only few days ago it worked, I have lot tag galleries and none showing up….
    PS. My photo tags are not same as wp tags, non of words

    PPS: Might it happened today AFTER I updated the Nextcellent plugin?

    Oh YES! I had 1.9.18 installed and today I updated to 1.9.19 and now tags stopped to work completely.
    I have second blog where still 1.9.8 and was not updated and there are all tags showing perfect!

    I hope this information is helpful.
    I am trying to go back to older version via FTP, hoping it works XX

    Thanks for mentioning that 1.9.18 worked fine with nggtags; I only noticed accidentally while browsing my site after a theme update. I just reinstalled the older version for now, and it works fine. Hopefully the kind folks maintaining this NextCellent branch of the NextGen Legacy will be able to find and fix the shortcode issue shortly.

    Oh man, thank God there are other people who are experiencing the tag shortcode is no longer working.

    I’m happy to announce that this was indeed a bug. A fix has been committed. While you’re waiting for the fix the make it to the next release, you can fix it yourself if you know how to edit code:

    Go to the /lib/tags.php file. Change this line (around 314):
    $sluglist = "'" . implode("', '", $new_slugarray) . "'";
    to
    $sluglist = implode("', '", $new_slugarray);

    Thank you for reporting it and for your patience!

    My apologies, that mistake was introduced when I was fixing an error with strict syntax.
    A patch will be released son. Thanks Niko for the quick fix.

    Thanks niknetniko,

    Your fix solves my problem completely. I was pulling out my hair wondering what was wrong with my site.

    But only in one post i can see now all related images!
