Images won't upload – there aren't any db NGG tables??

    11 years, 2 months ago

    I just installed the latest Nextgen plugin (again)
    PHP 5.0

    I did install NextGen 3 months ago and it didn’t work. No galleries or albums created. I was having many problems with my site. I did a Big site clean-up: reinstalled WP, my theme & deleted all plug-ins and started fresh. I also cleaned & optimized my DB tables.

    Now that i have my site back in proper working order, I wanted to start using NextGen. I installed it, activated it, but when I try to add images, it shows the processing of the image upload, but once it gets to 100% – I get a message “0 images were uploaded”. Tried a couple more times & nothing.

    I looked at my DB tables – there aren’t ANY for NGG.

    How can I the nextgen plugin to create the necessary tables or how can I fix this?

    thanks in advance!

    Hi photocrati –
    I’ve upgraded to the the latest version. Sadly, there is still the problem of not being able to add images, manage albums, galleries, etc from the Post or page.

    I am only able to add images, create galleries & albums from the dashboard Gallery Admin area.

    Any suggestions to correct this bug? Thank you

    (I did test it by deactivating all plugins and switching to a basic theme, still doesn’t work for me)

    @justinta – As a last resort when you have *all* plugins deactivated and your are using a default theme is to clear all of your browser caches and cookies as well. Have you tried that?

    @justinta – You are welcome. I’m glad to read things are working now.

    I just know how much of an inconvenience it can be to clear browser caches that I prefer not to ask it of our end-users unless all other options have not worked.

    Consider this another report of a very similar problem.

    Lots of issues I tried to work our with NGG so I completely uninstalled the plugin and reinstalled several times. Clearing everything i could think of and removing directories, But for some reason the plugin kept picking up its owl setting upon reinstallation. I didn’t want that, so I deleted the three ngg_ mysql tables in the DB with phpmyadmin.

    Wrong!

    Ever since then a reinstallallation of NGG will not recreate those tables, thus no galleries and no images.

    Just cleared all of my cache in browser and relogged onto all my utilities. Reinstall doensn’t recreate tables.

    @penvenom – I would still recommend you create your own topic for your own issues, it would be much easier to be able to try to help you get them sorted out.

    As it is, not all NextGEN Gallery database entries are strictly found within the three tables currently inserted by NextGEN Gallery. There may be references in wp_options, wp_postmeta, and wp_usermeta … I would strongly recommend a fully verified back-up before attempting to locate and clean those tables as well.
