Well, in the meantime I found several websites, which referred to different versions of Nextgen, how some shortcodes have changed etc.
For one thing there is the [tagcloud] commmand, which generates a usual tag cloud. Disadvantages are that it is to my knowledge not applicable in the sidebar, it does not necessarily show all tags and others report that it disappears as soon as one tag is clicked.
Then there other shortcodes like [nggtags album=XX,YY,ZZ] which will only show albums with those tags. Nice, but not exactly what I was looking for.
So, in the end I am still searching for a way to display all tags, which have been assigned to a gallery, in the sidebar and then to click for example on “Uncle Tom”, what should lead to the display of all pictures with uncle Tom on them.
If you have any suggestions, it would be great, as it would ease the handling of a large gallery (500+ pics) a lot.
Best regards

Yes, I have tried that, but somehow it didn’t work.
Would be so grad, if Alex could include such functionality in one of the future versions.
Alex, do you have any advice on this?
