    Hello, I’ve a website correctly working before upgrading to WordPress 3.8.1.
    Now the photos open “statically” in a blank page one by one.
    This is the site address:
    http://www.matteomiceli.it/

    – WordPress version: 3.8.1
    – NextGEN version: 1.9.13 (I’m mantaining this version because 2.0 version had broken the site)

    (please confirm the following, with your server host tech) :
    – MySQL up to date
    – PHP up to date
    – The mod_rewrite Apache module activated?
    Yes

    – PHP Safe Mode OFF?
    Yes

    – What theme are you running?
    Resort child theme from Woothemes (up to date)

    – Does this error still occur if you switch your theme to the WP default, and deactivate all plugins except NextGEN Gallery?
    Yes

    Please, give me an answer, client is waiting for me.

    Thank you so much

  • Gallery work fine, just lightbox module is broken. Switch to shutter this does not fix lightbox problem but at least buy you some time to fix lighbox

    @toad75 thank you so much for the answer, i switched to shutter effect and temporarily fixed the problem.

    The problem now: you suggest me to fix lightbox but how?
    Did someone have experience on how to fix that?

    However thank you again, toad75 🙂

    @rupertone – The “Lightbox” included with NextGEN Gallery is just a standard library, if you are seeing issues directly affecting the “Lightbox” library that needs to be “fixed” you may also look at other plugins that use the “Lightbox” library as well. One may be over-writing the other causing the issues you are seeing.

    You can also try our latest beta to see if that helps with this issue as well. Read more about it here: http://www.nextgen-gallery.com/nextgen-gallery-latest-beta/

    Thanks!

    – Cais.

    @rupertone Cais is absolutely right. I personally like this lightbox plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-lightbox/. Work really nice and have slideshow function (which can be disable if you want)

    @toad75 Cais says that another plugin could cause a conflict with the lightbox provided by NextGen, he’s not saying to install another plugin. In the specific, I think it’s Background Manager plugin.
    Installing another lightbox plugin it’s not a good idea in this case.

    @rupertone try go to options effect JavaScript Thumbnail effect>none install simple lightbox plugin and see if it work, if not simply uninstall plugin and roll back to shutter – no harm done.

    @rupertone Also as alternative to lightbox you can use thickbox

    Many thanks to you all, I’ve tried many plugins to fix the issue, at the end of time i’ve simply installed “Lightbox” plugin and everything runs fine.
    The only thing i’d like to obtain again is the name of the pics on the photo frame(now i can’t find an option to add it, hope i’ll do soon).

    However, again, Thank you so much 🙂
