    After upgrading to the latest version, my thumbnails have disappeared and now this is displayed:

    Rendering of template gallery.php failed

    I am putting galleries in individual posts, such as "[nggallery id=91]"

    Please help :(

    Check the permission of the files in the plugin folder "view", maybe reupload the plugin again

    Where is the view folder located? What should the permissions be set to?

    I have set the permissions of everything inside the nextgen plugin folder to 777 and still nothing is working. I still have the same error.

    upgrading to 2.8.6 seems to have caused a number of problems here as well... a "sliding door menu" now fails to slide. Did anything change with jsquery or mootools???

    Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?? I have deleted the plugin folder and reinstalled the plugin and still nothing has been able to fix the issue..

    My wp-content folder has been moved in wp-config.php to /static/content, and the plugins is located in /static/content/plugins.

    I am running it at CandidNights.com. You have to be registered in order for the nextgen gallery to show. Instead of showing thumbnails it displays "Rendering of template gallery.php failed"

    I am experiencing the same error with WP 2.8.6 & NextGen 1.4.2

    I don't belive this is a issue of 1.4 x, otherwise much more used should have the same problem. I can't reproduce this here. Chcek the permissions of the view folder, this is the only possible problem I know so far

    I have resolved the issue. The file in the view folder was named album-extend.php rather than album-extended.php.

    ??? but the file is namend "extend" since V1.00 ??? (I agree extended is better, but I used the name extend | compact a very very long time )

    Don't know what to tell you. The package I downloaded from the WP site includes "album-extend.php" in the View folder.

    The error being thrown on my album page was "Rendering of template album-extended.php failed."

    So I just changed the file name to what the system appeared to be expecting. Nothing more.

    Ok, resolved the true issue.

    I called the album with "[album id=1 template=extended]" as my shortcode. Turns out I was quickly scanning rather than reading your documentation.

    The plugin appears to take that shortcode literally when searching for a file name. The other individual in this thread appears to have made the same user error that I did. I assumed when I saw this thread existed that it was an actual bug...

    ...the only bug here is lazy users. Thanks for your attention though.

    For future reference, the proper format is [album id=X template=extend]

    Thanks for the feedback ! Just wondering why this happend AFTER the upgrade. Everytime I release a new version I do my best to ensure that you didn't get compat issues...

    Stupid me. I decided to let this plug in upgrade automatically. Now I have an empty nextgen gallery plug-in folder, a broken nggSlideshowWidget() on my homepage, and now that the zip versions of the plug-in are not available, no way to download the plug-in and fix the issue. So now I'm stuck commenting out the widget call and have no slideshow on my homepage. The nextgen slideshow was the only thing providing any visuals.

    I am calling specific nextgen galleries in individual wordpress posts.

    [nggallery id=xx]

    Yet I still get the following error:

    Rendering of template gallery.php failed

    I have reinstalled the plugin. I have also downgraded and that hasnt worked for me and then upgraded and nothing has fixed the error. I have changed the permissions to '755' and even '777' to the entire nextgen folder and every sub directory and file underneath and nothing has resolved the issue.
