Nextgen CSS appearing after my custom.css and before Tag!!

  • Hi Nextgen,

    Working on the latest wordpress and nextgen plugin.

    Ok, let me say that I’ve used your plugin before and worked with it on a number of sites. I don’t particularly like a lot of the ways you guys do things, but that’s a matter of preference. I’ve normally worked around things, and gotten the job done.

    That being said. I’m not so sure why the nextgen css appears before the </head> tag in my site, when the header.php specifically puts my stylesheet last, and the wp_head(); line of code is placed further up in my code, before the main stylesheet. If my thoughts are correct, then you’ve programatically decided to force the code before the </head> tag. If that’s a correct assumption, can you explain why you’ve chosen this avenue of programming instead of following basic procedure and outputting your code in the wp_head(); function call? If what I’m saying is correct, can you explain how to disable that behavior?

    Will

  • I too am curious why the 4 lines of NextGen CSS code below appear at the end of my site’s head section, especially when I specifically coded my custom style sheet to be the last head element.

    ngg_trigger_buttons-css
    nextgen_basic_thumbnails_style-css
    nextgen_pagination_style-css
    nextgen_pagination_style-css

    I am wondering the same thing. Most WP developers place their own custom stylesheet at the end of the head so we can use it to override ANY plugins stylesheets. Why NextGen has chosen to force theirs to be last is beyond me. It is terrible practice and makes more work for everybody. I am now forced to use their admin tool to enter my styles….and it doesn’t work! I am currently totally unable to override ANY ngg styles. ALL the styles I enter via the other options/styles method are completely ignored.
    Looks like refund time.
