 * Hi, any help would be much appreciated. I’ve recently installed the custom field’s
   plugin to run along with the NextGEN plugin so I can link images to pages. I 
   know this is nothing to do with your Plugin but there following is..I think. (
   It might be a little confusing)
 * I’ve been told that short code [Gallery ID=X] short code is for the default WordPress
   gallery and not NextGEN gallery. When I use [Gallery ID=X] it shows an image 
   hover which covers the image with the Title and Description (from the NextGEN
   Gallery information) over the image on a faded background. This is what I want
   my Gallery to look like, however it will not work with the Custom Fields.
 * This is what it currently looks like. – [http://abodesofas.com/gall/](http://abodesofas.com/gall/)
 * Is there a way I can make my NextGEN Gallery on my page show the image hovers
   using the Title and Description information from the NextGEN gallery.

 * Just to add, when I use the NextGEN gallery short codes, the hover does not appear
   on the images on the page.

 * [@mattabode](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattabode/) – This is not currently
   an option with NextGEN Gallery but it definitely would make for a great Feature
