please please help me!!!!
sorry for third post… but can nobody help me?
please!!
For what exact do you need help ? As far as I understand your post ,this is a feature request and not a urgent bug report.
You will find the media screen in the file admin/media-upload.php inside the plugin folder. There you need to add the button.
Hey thx for the responses! I thought that this is the right forum… Now I made it to create the button to the right place, but there isn’t any function. When I click on it, something is loading, but then nothing changed and nothing has been updated!
I added this code from the manage-images.php file to the media-upload.php next to the “Save changes”-button:
<input type="submit" class="button-secondary" name="scanfolder" value="<?php _e("Scan Folder for new images",'nggallery')?> " />
This is how it looks:

Has someone an idea how I could do this?
Greets, Manu!
ps to alexrabe:
This feature would make creating a post much easier, if you use ftp-upload for your images.
It would be great if this function is contained in the next update of NextGEN Gallery!
I think this is a great idea and would serve to streamline everyones workflow who uploads via ftp (for example directly out of lightroom).
Thus I made a little hack to accomplish this. I hope, alex will incorporate it in one of the upcoming versions – surely in a neater way.
So here we go:
In media-upload.php find the function media_upload_nextgen_form
Near line 96 insert the code embraced by the comment-block:
// Get number of images in gallery
if ($_REQUEST['select_gal']){
$galleryID = (int) $_REQUEST['select_gal'];
// ---Hack by gwegner.de ----------------------
// rescans the selected folder for new Images before showing it
include_once (dirname (__FILE__) . '/functions.php');
$gallerypath = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT path FROM $wpdb->nggallery WHERE gid = '$galleryID'");
nggAdmin::import_gallery($gallerypath);
// --------------------------------------------
$total = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->nggpictures WHERE galleryid = '$galleryID'");
}
This one will rescan and refresh the gallery every time it is chosen in the WordPress mediauploader.
Have Fun!
I currently don’t know why, but unfortunately the hack above is not generating Thumbnails for new images, although the method is being called. Sorry, I’m going to look into it a bit further if time.
