    Hey guys,

    I hope you can assist me in this matter. When using the NEXTGEN Gallery plugin Im experiencing some inconsistency when displaying columns and also when initially using the FancyBox. Sometimes (not always) when entering a page where I have a NEXTGEN Gallery included the gallery is displayed in one single column instead of for example 8. When I hit refresh page, it shows the 8 columns. Also, when clicking on a thumbnail it opens it in a new tab instead of FancyBox, however when I go back and click on the same image again, it DOES open in FancyBox.
    Do you have any ideas about this inconsistent behavior?

    @vattenmelon – What you are describing is most likely due to the JavaScript and CSS required to display the images correctly and to trigger the Lightbox Effect being “stopped” by something else on your site. Refreshing the page is basically finally getting those files loaded and therefore things start working as expected.

    Have you tried deactivating all of your plugins, clearing your browser cache (and site caches if you are using a caching plugin), then reactivating the NextGEN plugin?

    If this fixes the problem then it was likely one of the deactivated plugins that was causing an issue. Now, retrace your steps activating each plugin and re-checking to see if the problem returns. If it does then that last activated plugin was probably the one. Keep reactivating and in most cases it is also best to keep checking after each plugin, sometimes there may be more than one plugin on a site that will create an issue. If you do find one (or more) plugins causing this problem we would greatly appreciate your feedback on them so the developers may address them as soon as they can.

    Also to note, in rare cases it may be the theme itself that is causing a conflict so while you have just the NextGEN plugin activated you might consider temporarily switching to one of the default WordPress Twenty series themes and see if this corrects the issue as well.

    If the problem still persists after all of this we would still want to know, even more so, as we will still want to sort out the issue and may need additional details.

    Thanks!

    Thank you very much for you time and for your respons.
    I followed the steps you suggested and my conclusion is that there’s a conflict with the theme ‘Cabin’ Im using.
    https://themeforest.net/item/cabin-a-beautiful-vintageinspired-theme/10721312

    I managed to fix the error with the column inconsistency which Im guessing had something to do with the width of the page (Im also using Visual Composer to design my pages). After recreating the thumbnails the error no longer occurs.

    Any suggestions on how to proceed?

    Thank’s again!
    Kind regards

    @vattenmelon – This may have something to do with the implementation of the visual composer on your site … intermittent issues are often related to cache problems but they are not necessarily exclusive to those types of plugins.

    You might look at different Lightbox Effects … some may just work better on your site than Fancybox is currently.

    Thanks!

    Thank you! How can I add another Lightbox Effect so that i gets recognized by NEXTGEN and to be able to select that one in the settings?

    Thank you!

    @vattenmelon – You can add references to the third-party Lightbox under Gallery > Other Options > Lightbox Effects | Custom.

    Generally, if you are using a Lightbox from a third-party plugin or from the current theme you can just set the above to none as well.

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately I have not managed to fix this issues using the different methods explained.

    Do you guys offer (or know someone that offers) some sort of premium services to help me out with these issues?

    Thank you!
