Why are my photo galleries not opening up in a lightbox after I move my site?
This is often due to the URL paths to the CSS and JavaScript files used by the Lightbox Effects not being changed to relevant addresses based on the new site. This article will help sort out this issue if that is the case: Why are my galleries not opening up in a lightbox?.
Do you have documentation or tutorials?
Yes. See NextGEN Gallery Documentation.
Will this gallery plugin work with my theme?
Yup, NextGEN is a popular and well-established WordPress gallery plugin, and has been for a long time. It will work well with most other themes and plugins in the WordPress ecosystem.
Are the photo galleries flash based?
Nope, we use no flash elements.
Are the galleries mobile friendly?
Yes, we've put a lot of work into this and, NextGEN Galleries are compatible with phones and tablets, inluding Android and iOS operating systems. All photo galleries are also responsive, so galleries look good on diverse screen sizes. NextGEN Pro also includes a full screen, responsive Pro Lightbox with mobile gesture support. It's great for viewing photos on mobile devices.
What is the difference between a gallery and an album?
In simple terms, Albums are collections of galleries. So Galleries contain your photos and Albums contain your Galleries. Albums act as links and placeholders to quickly and easily navigate your galleries. Galleries will actually display your images.
Can I upload multiple images at once?
Yes, you can batch upload entire photo galleries at one time.
Can I password protect galleries?
Yes, WordPress allows you to password protect pages by default – which includes all photo galleries and content for the entire page. Password protection of pages can be turned on and off at any time, with just a few clicks.
Can I add a watermark to the my photos?
Yes, you can add text or image watermarks to your gallery images.
Can I crop photo thumbnails?
Yes, each thumbnail image can be individually adjusted to suit your needs.
Is there pagination for photo galleries?
Yes, you can use pagination when displaying thumbnail galleries. And you can adjust the amount of photos to be shown on a page at any time.
Can I customize the lightbox?
Yes, the lightbox can be configured with multiple options directly from the Dashboard, and there are multiple CSS styles which can be applied and modified as well. If you want even more options, consider upgrading to NextGEN Pro and useing the NextGEN Pro lightbox.
Yes, caption areas are fully HMTL capable.
Can I add an external links to galleries?
Since the captions are fully HTML capable, you can add external links and any other type of mark up you wish.

Dawn Nguyen of Rochester faces a state charge of filing a falsified business record, State Police Senior Investigator James Sewell said. Nguyen also faces a federal charge; a news conference with the U.S. attorney in western New York was scheduled for 4 p.m. Friday.
Sewell said the state charge is connected to the purchase of an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle and a 12-gauge shotgun that William Spengler had with him Monday when firefighters Michael Chiapperini and Tomasz Kaczowka were gunned down. Three other people were wounded before the 62-year-old Spengler killed himself. He also had a .38-caliber revolver, but Nguyen is not connected to that gun, Sewell said.
The .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle, which had a combat-style flash suppressor, is similar to the one used by the gunman who massacred 20 children and six women in a Newtown, Conn., elementary school earlier this month.
Nguyen and her mother, Dawn Welsher, lived next door to Spengler in 2008. On Wednesday and again on Friday, shortly before her arrest, she answered her cellphone and told The Associated Press that she didn't want to talk about Spengler. Her brother, Steven Nguyen, told the Democrat and Chronicle newspaper of Rochester that Spengler stole the guns from Dawn Nguyen.
A number listed in the name of her lawyer, David Palmiere, was disconnected.
Spengler set a car on fire and touched off an inferno in his Webster home on a strip of land along the Lake Ontario shore, took up a sniper's position and opened fire on the first firefighters to arrive at about 5:30 a.m. on Christmas Eve, authorities said. He wounded two other firefighters and an off-duty police officer who was on his way to work.
A Webster police officer who had accompanied the firefighters shot back at Spengler with a rifle in a brief exchange of gunfire before the gunman killed himself.
Spengler spent 17 years in prison for killing his grandmother in 1980 and was barred from possessing weapons as a convicted felon.
Investigators still haven't released the identity of remains found in William Spengler's burned house. They have said they believe the remains are those of his 67-year-old sister, Cheryl Spengler, who also lived in the house near Rochester and has been unaccounted for since the killings. The Spengler siblings had lived in the home with their mother, Arline Spengler, who died in October. In all, seven houses were destroyed by the flames.
Investigators found a rambling, typed letter laying out Spengler's intention to destroy his neighborhood and "do what I like doing best, killing people."
He had been released from parole in 2006 on the manslaughter conviction, and authorities said they had had no encounters with him since.
