• I just need some help getting this going, I have installed everything and inside the wordpress editor I am able to put together galleries etc…but how the heck do i get that onto a page I am new to word press and the tag convention is very foreign to me “[ ].” If made a gallery called birds in the default directory for example, what should the tag look like on the page.

    Also what file contains the permissions I need to change. thank you for any help

  • Hello,

    One hour has passed, so I suppose you already solved your problem…
    It is simple.

    The simpliest method is to use the button in your post editor. Open a post in your admin area and there among the buttons above your writing box should be a button “Add nextgen gallery”. It will let you select the gallery and the way it is displayed – test it so that you know what you can get. It will place the tag for you. Doesn’t matter if you do it in the visual or html mode.

    Other possibility is to place the tag yourself. It will look like this [nggallery id=11] (other tags are also possible – see what tags the button produces for different options). The number in the tag refers to the gallery ID number. You can find ID numbers of each gallery you create in the “Manage Gallery” menu under “Gallery” options goup in your admin area.
