    I am writing this report here because I have not renewed my membership for NG – Plus.

    When switching from NG Gallery Mosaic type to NG Gallery Masonry style the switch often fails if it was inserted before a certain time (I think). The current code for the Mosaic looks like:

    After the switch to the Masonry type, it changes to:

    [ngg_images source=”galleries” container_ids=”407″ display_type=”photocrati-nextgen_pro_masonry” size=”140″ padding=”5″ ngg_triggers_display=”always” captions_enabled=”0″ captions_display_sharing=”1″ captions_display_title=”1″ captions_display_description=”1″ captions_animation=”slideup” ID=”15595″ post_category=”0″ order_by=”sortorder” order_direction=”ASC” returns=”included” maximum_entity_count=”500″]

    Note that the type correctly shows as pro_masonry but the gallery displays as pro_mosaic. If I try to change the gallery type in the visual editor it still jumps to Pro Mosaic although the code shows Pro Masonry. A newly inserted Pro Masonry gallery code looks like:

    [ngg_images source=”galleries” container_ids=”407″ display_type=”photocrati-nextgen_pro_masonry” size=”140″ padding=”5″ ngg_triggers_display=”always” captions_enabled=”0″ captions_display_sharing=”1″ captions_display_title=”1″ captions_display_description=”1″ captions_animation=”slideup” order_by=”sortorder” order_direction=”ASC” returns=”included” maximum_entity_count=”500″]

    The difference is the code that was left behind in the switch in the first block:

    ID=”15595″ post_category=”0″

    Which apparently prevents the type from switching. If I delete that remnant all is good. Of course, I can delete the entire wrong gallery and start over, but I have to check the name of the gallery and then delete the wrong type.

    I thought you might want to know. I am writing this not expecting a direct answer here as I understand the forum rules may not allow that. Just for your info, or you may write to me directly if I could provide more information.

    @acekin – Thanks for your ever diligent feedback and reports!

    The issue with the ID parameter is one we are closing in on; it is designed to be part of the backward compatibility for inserted displays that were based on the <img> tag placeholder. Although the addition of the post_category=”0″ parameter is something very new …

    … feel free to send us a Bug Report on this, just in case we are not able to reproduce a display with the post_category parameter ourselves.

    Thanks!

    – Cais.

    PS: As a Pro display related issue the forum guidelines do not allow us to provide direct support for them here. 🙁

    @photocrati, would you like me to report the bug as an email message to support or report it on a webpage? If the latter, please provide me with the link as I cannot report problems on the member accessible site.

    By the way, since I am not getting any updates I will not be able to let you know if and when this may be fixed. I am simply reporting what I see on my version of NG Plus, Version 1.3.31.
