[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] how to activate gallery-carousel template? (3 posts)

    i cannot for the life of me, figure out how to activate the template titled:
    nextgen-gallery/view/gallery-carousel.php

    when i click on it in plug-in>editor, it says (inactive).

    do i need to move the template file to a different location on my server?
    or
    do i add code from there to main file (nextgen-gallery/nggallery.php)? if so, where?

    i have a feeling it's a quick fix, but i can't find it anywhere!

    many thanks in advance

    FINALLY...figured out the answer!!!
    for anyone else who is stuck with this...

    I had loaded all NextGEN files into the PLUG-IN folder on my server. The template files need to be copied to a new folder titled "nggallery" that is in my THEME folder (the wordpress theme i use is: widescreen)

    1. Create new "nggallery" folder on server in THEME folder that is currently being used for wordpress (i use widescreen)
    public html>wp-content>themes>currentthemefolder
    2. copy template (php) files to new "nggallery" (in current THEME folder)

    Template (.php) files can be found inside the "lib" and "view" folders. You will now be able to see the template files active when selected through dashboard>appearance>editor

    here is a link which may help, too:

    hope this helps someone else.
