Featured Content Gallery

  • I did search the forums and found a handful of questions related to mine, but they were all unresolved. Not sure if i’ll get any better results.

    This plugin isn’t working for me at all. It just displays all the content and images (twice) like regular text. Not even pretending to look like it’s supposed to. I tried over at the plugin’s forums and haven’t gotten an answer. All the other questions there are by people who got farther than i did.

    I won’t mind getting embarrassed because I missed something super-simple. https://dm.becksterslaboratory.com

  • What plugin are we talking about?

    The title says, although I guess that comes under many names. I am specifically talking about the literally named one from https://www.featuredcontentgallery.com.

    Or, does anyone know a better free featured content gallery besides FCG or Featurific? I’m flexible.

    Some folks have recommended Dynamic Content Gallery.

    I had so many problems with FCG, I installed the Dynamic Content Gallery, but it broke somethings in my blog.

    Finally, because I already had NextGen Gallery installed, I just used it for a home page slideshow. The downside is that it doesn’t pick up images from pages and posts, although it might do that with a custom field; I did not look into it. The upside is that it is much easier for my client to use because it doesn’t require that you indicate an articlimg custom field and enter a URL for it (tricky for my novice users).

    To put the NextGen Slideshow in the featuredtop div, I commented out the include for FCG and entered this PHP in the home.php file inside the featuredtop div:

    <div class=”featuredtop”>
    <?php echo do_shortcode(“[slideshow id=8 template=galleryview images=0]”); ?>
    <!–<?php include (ABSPATH . ‘/wp-content/plugins/featured-content-gallery/gallery.php’); ?>–>
    </div>

    I had to activate FCG to get the featuredtop div to be honored. Setting height and width in CSS did not seem to do the trick. Not elegant, but until I can figure out how to separate FCG from StudioPress themes, it’ll have to do.
