 * Hi,
 * there is shortcode for NextGEN Basic SinglePic available:
 * `[ngg_images image_ids="1" display_type="photocrati-nextgen_basic_singlepic"]`
 * But I did not find a way how to insert it into post with NextGEN green button?
   What should I choose or select to select image and insert this shortcode into
   post automatically?
 * Thank you for your help.

 * [@pavelevap](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pavelevap/) – We are currently
   reviewing the idea of adding the SinglePic display to the IGW (formerly ATP, 
   aka “green button”) but in the meantime you can insert the SinglePic display 
   via the Add Media button and then select NextGEN Gallery as your source and navigate
   to the image you want to insert.

 * And by “reviewing” do you mean that it will be possible in the future or not?
 * Thank you very much for your help, I did not notice that it is possible to insert
   old singlepic shortcode into post, I thought that only the whole HTML can be 
   inserted (and it leads to problems, for example after changing Lightbox effect).

 * [@pavelevap](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pavelevap/) – Yes, by “reviewing”
   I mean we are looking at adding the functionality into the Insert Gallery Window,
   aka IGW (formerly ATP) interface. We are even hoping it will be easy enough to
   do for our next significant release.
 * There are still a few minor issues with using SinglePic as I described above,
   which is also part of the reason we want to put it into the IGW.
