NextGEN Gallery Plugin and Thumbnail Generation Support
Alex Rabe developed wonderful photo plugin for WordPress that is NExtGEN Gallery plugin. I recommend this plugin as the best for making photo gallery.
1 ) If you have problem in Thumbnail Generation and Receive error like:
Follow thumbnails could not created.
DSC00422.JPG (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 57 MByte)
DSC00423.JPG (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 57.01 MByte)
DSC00424.JPG (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 57.01 MByte)
DSC00425.JPG (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 57.01 MByte)
For Older Version:
You just edit the file “thumbnail.inc.php” which is located at: /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/thumbnail.inc.php
Search for
// @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
Change it to
ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
Now you are done, just save and upload the file.
For New Version:
You will not find the file “thumbnail.inc.php” instead you will find the file “gd.thumbnail.inc.php” which is located in the same location “/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/thumbnail.inc.php” . You just need to edit this file.
Search for
// @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
Change it to
@ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
Now you are done, just save and upload the file.

2) If you have problem finding and locating imagerotator.swf for shildeshow in Gallery. Then you can Click Here to download.
After downloading it just unzip it and then upload it in the “wp-content/uploads” and then in the Slideshow option give the path of it as “wp-content/uploads/imagerotator.swf”. Just save it and you are done.

In New version of NextGEN Gallery you need to edit the file “gd.thumbnail.inc.php” which is located at: /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/gd.thumbnail.inc.php
Search for
// @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
Change it to
@ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);

Can you help me? I’m having trouble finding a solution. I want to change the image thumbnail background color from #555555 to #f5f5f5. I’ve pour over every css available for this plug in, but have not been successful.
I want the frame around the thumbnails to look like this:

Here’s my site:

Thank you,

Hi Marlee,
I just checked your site and found that you have define the background color in two files. One is in the ngggallery.css which is the file of NGG gallery and another one is style.css which is you theme file.
You can use any one the following solutions:
1) Change in your sytle.css line no 90 you will wee the following code:
.post img, .post a img {
background:#555555 none repeat scroll 0 0;
border:1px solid #222222;
margin:0;
padding:5px;
}
Change this to the following:
.post img, .post a img {
background:#F5F5F5 none repeat scroll 0 0;
border:1px solid #222222;
margin:0;
padding:5px;
}
2) Change in NGG Gallery Style that is nggallery.css in line no 143 you will see the following code:
.ngg-gallery-thumbnail img {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
border:1px solid #A9A9A9;
display:block;
margin:4px;
padding:4px;
position:relative;
}
Change this to the following:
.ngg-gallery-thumbnail img {
background-color:#F5F5F5 !important;
border:1px solid #A9A9A9;
display:block;
margin:4px;
padding:4px;
position:relative;
}
Regards,
Sakin

Hello there,
I have used your wonderful plugin to display a slideshow in the header of the website and also in the content in few places. However, there is lots of padding around each image displayed in the slideshow. I have tried everything, reupload, changing sizes, stylesheets, even uploading images that are bigger than the slideshow, but nothing works. Could you help please?
The website is at victorian-extravaganza dot co dot uk
Thanks a lot!

I’m getting this error but with the image.php, not the thumbnail. Is there a fix for that one?
