I’ve seen at least one report of an incompatibility with Simple Tags, can you please describe how we are impacting Yoast? It’s much easier to debug problems if I know what the problem is 😀
Thanks hu17dotnet!
Can you describe what happens that is preventing you from selecting a gallery? Is the gallery list empty, does it appear incorrectly, does clicking the gallery list do nothing..?
It appears you’ve found a bug @bob-reeves. I don’t have a solution for you right now, but I’ve added this to our internal bug tracker and will try to have it fixed in the next release or two.
wporg1955 could you please create your own forum topic so that we can better track these two issues? Thanks!
NextGEN Gallery does not yet support WebP images at all, sorry. I believe that EWWW Image Optimizer adds that feature however.
We haven’t allowed injecting HTML attributes in image descriptions for some time, unfortunately it’s a major security risk for people that delegate gallery editing roles to non-super-Admin users.
Adding the
target="blank"attribute can be done fairly easily using our custom templates. That page also covers migration from our legacy template types, but it is the best resource at the moment on how to get started with our current template system.I’ve been working on NextGEN for five years and somehow never noticed this bug, but you’re totally right. I don’t have a solution for you, but I’ve added this to our internal bug tracker and will hopefully have it fixed in the next release or two.
Thanks SFrueh!
Thanks again PollyWogg!
NextGEN Gallery (the free plugin) has NO restrictions whatsoever; our premium plugin adds additional features but there is nothing held back to unlock.
I have two thoughts:
1) It could be that the text you’re using has specially styled quotation marks; they’re pretty (and automatically used by document editors like MS Word) but WordPress cannot handle them. Can you copy / paste this and see if it functions:
[ngg src="galleries" ids="1" display="basic_thumbnail" order_by="rand()"]2) As PollyWogg said some web hosts disable random ordering in their database servers. We have an option under Other Options > Misc to enable an alternate random-image ordering algorithm: it’s a little slower and less actually random (and not at all random if your gallery has less than 20 or so images) but it’s possibly a bandage.
Sorry, NextGEN doesn’t support WP_CONTENT_DIR being a symlink for security reasons. Not that it helps, but in my personal experience I’ve found that symlinking wp-content breaks quite a few other plugins as well.
However you can use
mount --bindto achieve the same effect as a symlink.Thanks PollyWog, that’s an accurate description and good advice! It’s a better suggestion than what I would have given 🙂
To add to what PollyWog said; NextGEN has two kinds of galleries in a way: the galleries seen on on Manage Gallery and are found in the WP-Admin, and “displayed galleries” which are the bundle of what is to be displayed: the galleries/albums, settings, sort order, excluded images, etc.
We don’t automatically generate any kind of permalink for galleries on the site frontend, that is left to authors to control.
Do you have enabled the option to automatically resize images when they are uploaded? It is necessary it be on for our “retina” image feature to function.
Lost het activeren van de “Enable jQuery Migrate Helper” plug-in het probleem op?
Zo niet, dan weet ik niet wat de oorzaak zou kunnen zijn. Kunt u een officieel bugrapport indienen op onze site en opmerken dat Benjamin u heeft gestuurd? Bedankt!
I’m sorry, I misunderstood you!
Have you checked the server error logs, or could you try to do the same process as above but examine the response for the upload-image request when using the media library?
Thanks arnaudbroes!
Is there a difference (after clearing the cache as I unnecessarily did previously) in adding a ngg gallery to a private page and viewing it to populate the cache vs simply viewing it on the published page?
There is no difference, I just suggest using a private page so that your users don’t experience the extra loading time while the images generate.
I’ve added on my todo list to add an option to control whether the original or resized version of images are used in those display types. It was originally written that way in an attempt to find a good compromise on performance for most of our users, but it obviously isn’t best for everybody.
Can you try creating a page with the new block (“Gutenberg”) editor and see if that works? The classic editor works for me, but there’s so many possible variables.
