 * Hey there,
    In nextgen when you go to “manage galleries” there is a place to 
   add a description of the gallery. I added a description and it’s not showing 
   anywhere. I want the name of the gallery and the description to be above the 
   thumbnails. My site is not currently online yet but I’m hoping someone can help
   anyway… thanks!!

 * Do you mean the description on the upper side, or the one on the thumbnails side?

 * I mean the description on the upper side for the whole gallery, which you can
   add by going to “manage galleries”, not the descriptions for each thumbnail (
   those are showing fine).
    🙂

 * That description appear only in album page near the gallery’s thumbnail, not 
   in gallery’s page.
    If you want the gallery’s title in gallery’s page you have
   to link a page to that gallery, so you’ll write there your description and give
   a title to the page.

 * I have the same question, and more: when I create a separate page for a gallery,
   a click from the album to the gallery results in a ‘page not found’.
 * I have an album ‘prints’, albums A-Z, one for each letter of the alfabet, and
   one gallery per artist within the relevant album. For now I can click from album
   to album to gallery, but without any of the extra details such as description
   or title.
 * Example:
    [http://armaghpubliclibrary.arm.ac.uk/wp/prints-3](http://armaghpubliclibrary.arm.ac.uk/wp/prints-3)
   is the startpage. Click ‘Prints A’ brings your to the gallery list. Click Angier,
   Paul brings you to a page not found, where I have set a separate page. Click 
   Aquila, Pietro brings you to the thumbnail page, where I have not set a separate
   page.
 * I am stumped how to get the albums/galleries to work the way I want it, i.e. 
   with the description and title showing for each gallery. Do I need to make separate
   pages for the albums a-z as well?

 * B.t.w. I run WP 3.6.1 and NextGen 2.0.31.
