# Album_Extended Issues

 * After multiple trial and errors, I can’t seem to find where the extended album
   template that is used by default comes from inside the nexgen install. I want
   to make some changes to the template so it formats information in a way useful
   to our site.
 * I have tried the nggallery folder inside our theme along with a album_extended.
   php file from the views folder as suggested in the documentation. It never works
   for me. I always get the dreaded “images not found” comment on the page. Since
   this doesn’t work, I am trying to use the default template that nexgen uses to
   see if I can make the changes there first, then copy the file to the nggallery
   folder in our theme to integrate the template.
 * Our site is [http://www.briohomes.net/portfolio](http://www.briohomes.net/portfolio)
   On this page I am trying to display the galleries, so that the description for
   each gallery lists facts about the property we are showcasing. Facts that we 
   would want are, Description, Square Footage, Year Built, etc. I need to build
   a template ultimately that accomplishes all of this. I am using albums to categorize
   the work.
 * Any help is greatly appreciated.

 * [@jmatthi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jmatthi/) – The plugin does not
   have any sort of “add custom field” to the display functionality. You might be
   able to create a custom template (as well as potentially a great deal of additional
   code) to display information like you are describing but it might be just as 
   easy to use the description field(s) to show these details as well.
 * As it is, you appear to have found the NextGEN Legacy template by noting the 
   specific `album-extended.php` file name … and also appear to understand the ideas
   behind where to save custom templates as well to help ensure they are also update
   safe.
 * As it is … NextGEN Legacy templates are bundles in this folder:
    `../wp-content/
   plugins/nextgen-gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/ngglegacy/view/`
 * “Default” templates (not recommended to modify) are located in each display module’s
   folder in its respective `\templates\` folder.
 * Thanks!
