Hi @ozkrsanchez,

Thanks for reaching out!

With NextGEN Gallery, you can insert a link in the description using the <a></a> tag HTML to let the image open in the specific URL.

Under the description section of each image you can insert the HTML tag as <a href=”https://imagely.com&#8221; target=”_blank”>THIS IS THE LINK</a>

(Replace the https://imagely.com URL)

Thank you!

Hi @aaa1898,

Sorry for the trouble,

The issue arises because NextGEN Gallery is not able to function properly without its database tables. The tables were dropped manually and didn’t created automatically even after reinstalling the plugin.

To fix the issue, could you please find the ngg_options key in the wp_options table and delete the ngg_options row. Once done, reactivate the NextGEN Gallery plugin, which will trigger its installation routine, recreating the necessary database tables.

I hope this helps! Could you please let me know if you have any questions?

Thanks!

Hi @aaa1898,

Thanks for reaching out,

To accelerate the bulk import of folders containing many pictures into NextGEN Gallery in your Caddy + PHP-FPM Docker environment, you’ll need to adjust the following server-side parameters:

1. PHP-FPM: Increase max_execution_time (e.g., 300s), memory_limit (e.g., 1G), post_max_size, and upload_max_filesize (e.g., 256M).
2. Caddy: Extend timeouts in your Caddyfile (e.g., read_body and idle to 300s).
3. Docker: Allocate more CPU and memory (e.g., 2 CPUs, 2G RAM) in your container settings.
4. Database: Optimize MySQL settings, like max_allowed_packet for large queries.
5. NextGEN Settings: Limit image size to, 2000px and create smaller thumbnails (150x150px)

I hope this helps! Could you please let me know if you have any questions?

Thanks! 🙂

Hi @aaa1898,

Thank you for reaching out,

Once you have imported the images into NextGEN Gallery via the folder successfully, you’ll need to scan the galleries once you have added the new images on the folder. To scan the image, navigate to “Manage Galleries -> [Gallery Name] -> Gallery Settings[tab] -> Scan folder for new images”. Once done, new/replaced images will be updated on NextGEN Gallery.

However, for the image deletion purpose, we don’t have any workarounds. After you have deleted the images on the folder, the image still appears on the gallery since it’s imported to NextGEN Gallery. So you’ll need to delete the image manually from Manage galleries area.

I hope this helps! Could you please let me know if you have any questions?

Thanks! 🙂
