[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery Optimizer] NextGen Optimizer is not working

Hello,

I believe I’ve read every post/comment regarding NextGen, but I still haven’t been able to find a solution for this.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to share a link to my website since I’m currently working on sandbox mode (localhost).

I installed NextGen Gallery (which I used before and loved) and NextGen Gallery Optimizer (for FancyBox), and activated both. I have created a gallery and added images.

I am currently using a grid-based portfolio theme. So, I created a new post (several actually) and inserted [nggallery id=x] into it. The gallery comes up in the post, but instead of the FancyBox effect, it takes me directly to the JPEG’s URL. I have come across a couple of posts regarding this, and here’s what I’ve tried so far:

I checked the footer.php of the theme, and the “<?php wp_footer(); ?>” code is there. I’m not sure what I should look for in the header though. I have also tried checking and unchecking the “Activate Permalinks” option.

I’m using permalinks in the form of “http://localhost:8888/sample-post/”.

I’m sure I am (or the theme is) missing a code or something, but just cannot put my finger on it.

Thanks in advance.

By the way, here are the header and footer codes, if it’ll help:

…and after a few more minutes, I found a solution that worked perfectly.

Here’s the solution:

Hi aslanj,

I’m glad to hear you found a solution. However, loading all those scripts on every page view will make your site very sluggish.

Based on your header.php above, I’d be willing to bet those hard-coded jQuery scripts are what’s causing the problem (and will cause problems with other plugins in the future too). If you comment both of them out, or cut them out completely, Fancybox should display as intended.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Mark.
