   I just upgraded to the latest version of the NextGEN Gallery plugin, and it broke my website altogether.

   The error that comes up is the following:

   Catchable fatal error: Object of class wordpress_gallery_slideshow could not be converted to string in .../wp-includes/classes.php on line 273

   At first I thought it would be an issue in WP, but strangely enough, disabling the plugin brought everything back to normal.

   Is anyone else having this issue?

   Reverted to 1.4.1 until further notice. 1.4.3 and 1.4.2 both do not work for some reason. The same error is presented as above:

   Catchable fatal error: Object of class wordpress_gallery_slideshow could not be converted to string in /.../wp-includes/classes.php on line 273

   I am eagerly awaiting a reply. Thanks!

   Please give me the list of all plugins which you have installed

   Thanks for the reply, Alex! You're good...

   I guess it was pretty noobish of me to neglect looking into conflicting plugins.

   It turns out that, the main culprit was WordPress Gallery Slideshow. Disabling that plugin made everything work just fine again.

   I guess your update broke that plugin's capability. Not your problem anymore, right? :P

   Thanks again for your help! My brain farts kill me. Keep up the fantastic work!

   I have the same problem since last version of nextgen.

   At the first glance, I agree that nextgen plugin can work alone, wordpress galerie slideshow can work alone, but both plugins can not work together.

   I'm looking for a solution...

   hi,

   some news:

   nextgen plugin adds a public_query_vars named 'slideshow' and wordpress galery slideshow plugin uses a global object called '$slideshow'.

   so when wordpress parse the public_query_vars, it finds an unexpected object

   how to fix it ?

   I think the best is to rename the object in the wordpress gallery slideshow plugin, because nextgen seems to need this var.

   I tried to rename the object $slideshow and now both plugins are working together :O)

   (6 occurences in slideshow.php, from the wordpress gallery slideshow plugin)

   If you want to download my patch, It seems like the author didn't have changed its plugin yet
