v4 Is a Major Downgrade – To many Errors and Missing Features

I’ve been using NextGEN Galleries for a long time across multiple websites and I have over 300 Galleries. It was always my first choice for albums and galleries. But since v4, everything has changed — and not in a good way.

For the last 2–3 weeks I’ve been really dissatisfied. At first I assumed it would get fixed quickly, but it hasn’t. Instead, it’s been incredibly frustrating to use. I’m constantly running into error messages, and it features were removed without any clear announcement or proper transition.

I can’t recommend this plugin to anyone. It’s a shame, because it used to be reliable — but v4 has been a major step backwards.
