 * The Nextgen Widget, when used as a widget (in sidebar or footer) has a space 
   to add what gallery you want to use. It still seems to pull photos from other
   galleries though. Is there any solution if I just want to use photos from one
   specific gallery.
 * Maybe there is another Nextgen Widget I can use?
    Thanks

 * Hi,
 * Unless I misunderstand the question, when you edit the NextGen Gallery widget
   in Appearance –> Widgets, you can select specific Galleries to display and there
   is another setting to display:
    1. All Galleries 2. Only which is not listed 
   3. Only which are listed
 * Is this feature not working?
 * Cheers 🙂

 * Hi, thanks for answering. Forgot to mention that when I put it on “only which
   are listed,” it does not work. I get the title but no photos. I guess I should
   have realized that it is just not working — but don’t know why. It seems like
   I am doing everything right. When I post the code on a page, i get a specific
   gallery — but the widget is not working for me. Is that clear?

 * I finally figured it out!! After all this time.
 * If you past the code [nggallery id=8] onto a page, gallery 8 shows up. On the
   widget, it asks for the Gallery ID as well but I just had to use the number 8
   instead of the whole ID code. Arg! Thanks

 * Excellent!
 *  The widget displays photos in the sidebar and you decide which galleries to 
   show, whereas on a page or post (as you have worked out), you can specify a gallery
   or an album to display. You can also use [singlepic id= xx] to display a single
   picture.
 * I also recommend using the NextGen Slideshow widget.
 * Cheers.
