after some more testing, rolling back all plugin updates that I did recently adding the code snippets suggested in another thread, (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/galleries-stopped-working-1?replies=7), and deactivating Polylang, I can say for sure that it is an incompatibility with Polylang.
So the question is, can you resolve that? having a bilingual blog is important to me, so I might have to stop using NextGEN. 🙁
@faithdanceart – We fully support the use of WPML for multilingual sites, and most plugins that follow those code methods will work just fine. Unfortunately the polylang plugin does not seem to be compatible currently. Have you brought this to their attention as well?
– Cais.
yes, I posted my question on their site as well.
@faithdanceart – Thanks! Please let us know if there is anything else we can help with.
– Cais.
FYI – their reply was the following:
“Polylang and Nextgen Gallery used to be compatible (thanks to the WPML API included Polylang) but the update of Nextgen Gallery to 2.x broke the things. That was a while now but I did not work on it since that time. I must admit that this is not my top priority.”
@faithdanceart – That is really unfortunate they are choosing not to keep up-to-date and stay compatible. It appears they are aware of the problem and as such you may need to keep up with them to see if/when they will update their plugin to be compatible again.
– Cais.
