    I updated the plugin for my client from version 6.5.x to 6.7.05 and unfortunately the plugin displays the content entirely differently after that. What I can’t find in the settings and need to do is:

    1) Paginate list of albums and reorder. Table IV.D.1 setting is not taking effect.
    2) Remove “There are 162 photo albums The last album added is Kitchen 164, a subalbum of Tehtud.”, but keep the slideshow links.

    Any help appreciated.

    Table IV.D.1 setting is not taking effect.

    I just verified that this setting works correctly in the current version 6.7.05

    Make sure you have cleared any serverside cache after any update.
    You can verify any setting ( if it is correctly in the settings db table ) using plugin Tweak Option ( by me ). After installing the plugin you will find tweak option in the tools menu. Open it and scrool down to: wppa_list_albums_by
    If you change the setting, you should see the value change (after reloading the tweak option display).

    Please explain your 2) item. “There are xx photos… ” is on the album admin page, but there is no slideshow link. On what page do you want what kind of change?? Maybe someone added code to a page template like:

    <?php
    echo wppa_get_statistics();
    ?>

    Thanks for the reply. I confirmed via phpMyAdmin that wppa_list_albums_by is in fact changing in the DB. Nevertheless the albums on the page are not reordered. I am usin [wppa type="album" album="1" size="auto"][/wppa] to display the albums and no core files or any other modifications are done.

    2) That I figured out. Had to use CSS to hide the box above images.

    However, it seems my client had different layout for albums and album content with previous plugin settings. Can you please tell me if I can achieve results like below (with album pagination) without tapping in to the plugin files and/or hacking with CSS/JS? Can’t find any settings that could achieve that.

    There are settings to set pagesize for covers and for thumbnails. I am on my phone and can not read pdfs.

    Photo Albums > Settings admin page:
    Table I-C7 to set thumbnails per page.
    Table I-D8 to set albums per page.

    Photo Albums > Album Admin page:
    Click on Edit on the line for album 1
    On the next page (edit album information):
    Select the desired sort ordering method at selectionbox: Sub albums sort by

    Thank you for the reply. I do admit the plugin is powerful in it’s features, unfortunately when trying to revert back to old design, it’s too much to swallow at once. So my last question is: if albums link type is set to “the album photos as slideshow” and user navigates to slideshow page… is there a way to add navigation buttons on that page to next/previous albums?

    I did try altering the wppa-theme.php file, but failed adding nav links as wppa_get_albums() returns empty array when in slideshow view.

    You can not navigate to next/prev albums
