 * I upgraded to version 2.0.7 today and now the “attach to post” button doesn’t
   work. When I click that button, I’m taken to a static page provided by my host(
   Inmotion) that says:
 * biz141.inmotionhosting.com
 * Your IP is 76.95.187.183
 * Thanks in advance,

 * I have sort of the same issue. When I push the ATP button it opens the ATP window,
   but in that window I see my own website which gives me a 404 page not found error:
 *     ```
       THIS IS SOMEWHAT EMBARRASSING, ISN’T IT?
       It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help.

 * [@jeroen1973](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeroen1973/):
    NextGen uses
   the wrong url:
 * When you try to insert/edit a new gallery the url is, e.g.:
    [http://domain.tld/wordpress/nextgen-attach_to_post?ver=358-24485](http://domain.tld/wordpress/nextgen-attach_to_post?ver=358-24485)
   and you get a 404 error, when you change the URL to [http://domain.tld/nextgen-attach_to_post?ver=358-24485](http://domain.tld/nextgen-attach_to_post?ver=358-24485)
   you will see the NextGen form.
 * Have you installed WP in a subfolder? In my opinion NextGen does not recognize
   this kind of installation in 2.07.

 * [@slabbi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/slabbi/), if it a URL issue, how

 * I presume the only thing the ATP does is add some shortcodes to display your 
   photos on a page or post. So you can do that yourself, until Photocrati has fixed
   this.

 * (OP)
    This is the first time I’ve logged an error (bug) on Nextgen / Photocrati.
   Do the developers normally respond or acknowledge these tickets? I realize that
   we can post galleries in the original way, but I try to manage aberrations on
   my site so they do not accumulate, get out of hand, and begin to contribute to
   larger problems.
 * On another note… does anyone have a good article / tutorial on best practice 
   workflow for using Nextgen with Photocrati? I have to confess that I post the
   vast majority of my images on my Smugmug site and then link to that gallery. 
   In part I do that because I find the nextgen / photocrati process a little clumsy
   when compared to my Lightroom / Smugmug workflow. I’ve committed to blogging 
   more, but want a smooth process. This broken “ATP” functionality isn’t helping.

 * Kerrloud, what do you mean with workflow for using Nextgen with Photocrati?
    
   I use only Nextgen, but mentioned Photocrati since they now own the plugin and
   should give support on these issues.
 * There are however Lightroom plugins that will export from Lightroom into Nextgen,
   so I think you should look at those. But I don’t have any experience with those.

 * Jeroen,
 * I purchased Photocrati as a template a few years ago. At that time, there was
   tight integration between Photocrati & NextGen. Since then, as we’ve seen, Photocrati
   has purchased and taken on development / maintenance themselves.
 * I guess when I speaking of workflow, I mean do the majority of users find it 
   easier to first create a gallery and then link to that gallery when writing a
   post on WP. Or…. Create the gallery within the post edit functionality. Like 
   I said earlier, The majority of my work is on SmugMug and I certainly can link
   and display those galleries in my WP posts. But I’m digging into my WP / Photocrati/
   Nextgen setup to see what advantages there may be in posting content there vs
   linking to my SM galleries.

 * Hi all – A few thoughts here.
 * First, if you are having this problem, can you go to Gallery Settings > Permalinks
   and let us know if you are using “Default” permalinks? If so, can you try switching
   to any other option (like Postname), and let us know if that resolve it.
 * Second, if you’ve checked the above and that’s not the issue, can you confirm
   if, as [@slabbi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/slabbi/) has suggested, 
   you are running WordPress installed in a subfolder?
 * Finally, if the permalinks change doesn’t resolve it, can you please consider
   submitting a ticket with loign credentials so we can see what’s happening on 
   yours site? We can’t duplicate on our sites, and being able to see it would help
   troubleshooting.

 * [@slabbi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/slabbi/): thanks for posting your
   solution/thoughts. We’ll look into the possibility that this is being generated
   by WordPress in subfolders.
 * [@kerrloud](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kerrloud/): we’re doing our best
   to respond to everything. There’s obviously higher than normal volume, and we
   are triaging to focus on high priority issues. This one is pretty high priority.
 * [@jeroen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeroen/): thanks for the suggestion
   on using shortcodes. FYI – I know I still need to get back to you on where to
   store custom templates in your other thread.

 * Permalinks are on ‘Post Name’. When I change it to ‘Default’ I get to see the
   homepage of my website, when I choose the ATP. Changing permalinks back to ‘Post
   Name’ gives me a 404 again.
 * Yes, my website is installed in a subfolder.
 * If it helps I can report a bug via the link you’ve provided, but I don’t feel
   comfortable with providing login credentials. Perhaps someone else will do that?
   If you want me to check other things let me know.
 * I understand my question about where to store custom templates isn’t high priority.
   But thanks for letting me know that it has your attention.
 * [@kerrloud](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kerrloud/), I first create a 
   gallery. Then I create a new page where I link to that gallery.

 * [@plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/plugin/) Author – Thanks for getting
   back to us. As I indicated further up the thread, this was the first instance
   of reporting an issue, so I was unaware if this area was being actively monitored.
   I’m sure you all are busy responding to reported issues, like [@jeroen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeroen/)
   says, we’re glad it has your attention.
 * I ran through all the options on the permalinks and when attempting to use ATP
   again, I receive various 404 type messages from my host.
 * I too am unwilling to to turn over my login credentials for my site. I’d be happy
   to provide a screenshot of my installation if that would help.
 * [@jeroen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeroen/), thanks for the thoughts
   on workflow.

 * Hey all –
 * We just released an unofficial mini-upadate that addresses cases where there’s
   a 404 on the ATP page. If you are comfortable with FTP, you can download and 
   update to the latest version here:
