Exporting and importing?

@bearlydoug – There is currently no import/export method available for the NextGEN Gallery settings/options. Please feel free to add your thoughts and ideas on this as a Feature Request item here: https://imagely.com/feature-voting/

Thanks!

Thank you for the link. I’ve contributed my thoughts.

For anyone else that is interested in this… I followed the directions at https://www.flippercode.com/export_import_nextgen_gallery_wordpress/ and adjusted the path statements in the .sql file to match the new gallery upload paths of the new site. Also, be sure to adjust your WordPress database table prefixes, in case they change (like mine did).

I went from one MultiSite install under one URL over to a different MultiSite install under a different URL, with zero issues.

@bearlydoug – Thanks for sharing!

My pleasure. Hopefully you’ll be able to build this into all of your Gallery Plugins for a future update. If you’d like, I’ll work with you directly to show you exactly how I handled this manually (different WP database table prefixes and URLs in one of your tables).

Since there’s really no way for direct, private contact on here… if you’re on Twitter, give me a follow (same name as here) and we’ll rock this out.

I love working for a hosting provider that is, essentially, 95% wordpress based. Gives me the opportunity to help WordPress, Plugin and Theme authors the ability to help with bug fixes. You’re actually now the fourth Plugin author that I’ve identified issues on that were able to deploy enhancements or fixes for… plus I was able to contribute to identifying that two separate WP bugs were actually tied into each other (at that time, I only had two months of WP experience, but 13 years of PHP experience).

Hit me up, Cais. I’d love to see this as an enhancement for your gallery. ??

@bearlydoug – We’d love to hear from you as well. It may be just as easy for you to use one of the following links:

– https://imagely.com/contact/
– https://imagely.com/report-bug/

Either way, please mention this topic so we can tie it together and try to get all of this sorted out.

Also to note, we do offer the Reset Option under Gallery > Other Options as well as the Reset Tool plugin (essentially an external Reset Option) that will accomplish much of what you are referring to as I understand it. Have a look at the Reset Tool here: https://bitbucket.org/photocrati/nextgen-gallery-reset/

Thanks!
