[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Conflict with Contact Form 7?

    I just updated (automatically) to Contact Form 7 version 3.2 and I’m using the latest NextGEN version of 1.9.3. After updating Contact Form 7 to 3.2 now all of a sudden I cannot upload images using NextGEN Gallery.

    When I try to upload I get this error:

    ERROR: sample-image.jpg:
    Fatal Error: Call to undefined function wpcf7_add_tag_generator() in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/modules/text.php on line 152

    The end result is that no images are uploaded. But if I disable the Contact Form 7 plugin, the NextGEN Gallery upload works again. So there is a conflict in there somewhere with the latest version of Contact Form 7.

    Is this happening to anyone else?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks!

  • Thank you so much, mslocum.
    Works again!

    Re my problem earlier, I discovered that it was an ID10T error. I accidently changed the owner of the gallery I was testing.

    So it looks like the change is 100% compatible with CF7 and the Capability Manager.

    Thank you again mslocum for taking the time to hunt the problem down.

    I have the same problem with the conflict between NextGen and Contact 7 plugin. When I deactivated the Contact 7 Form, I could then use the Flash Uploader in NextGen.

    I want to go back to an older (3.0) version of Contact 7, but I try to upload this plugin I get this message: Destination folder already exists. /home5/lightsp8/public_html/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/
    What do I have to do get this resolved in order to revert back to the older Contact 7 plugin? I do not know much about this except I do not want to redo all of my forms if possible. Thanks for your help.

    johnrmath, if you follow the instructions on the first page, you can restore the flash upload functionality in NGG.

    To do this, go to your plugins list. Scroll down to NGG and click “edit”. Find the ngg-config.php file in the right hand column and click on it. Scroll down to the bottom of the file and find the line that says ‘require_once( WP_LOAD_PATH . ‘wp-load.php’);’ and replace it with ‘require_once( WP_LOAD_PATH . ‘wp-admin/admin.php’);’.

    Save and you are done!

    Thank you so much…that did the trick!

    The thanks go to mslocum. ??

    Hi mslocum, or anyone else who can help. I tried placing your fix code in contact form 7 to fix my problem of not getting the same error message as above when I click my short code button from my WP eStore short codes. The problem was fixed, BUT it caused another problem. Now, I cannot activate my contact form 7 and an error message appears when I try to activate it in the plugins page.

    Warning: require_once(WP_LOAD_PATHwp-admin/admin.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /nfs/c09/h03/mnt/134482/domains/topnotchman.com/html/blog/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/wp-contact-form-7.php on line 74

    The last line I replaced was not the same as the one you earlier suggested it would be. My last line previously read:

    require_once WPCF7_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/settings.php’;

    and I replaced it with:

    require_once( WP_LOAD_PATH . ‘wp-admin/admin.php’)

    Now I have no contact form, can anyone help?

    The code change goes in NGG, not CF7. Undo the change in CF7 then follow the instructions for NGG and it will work. ??

    Thank you mslocum!

    Hello, I had the same error message. Then replaced the code and now it shows me the follow message after trying to upload a picture: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected Send in …./plugins/nextgen-gallery/hgg-config.php on line 33

    What can I do to solve this error?

    Nate, check if you have any space after the last char in the file.

    Thank you Johnson. Checked, but I don’t have a space after the last char in the file. Other ideas?

    Double check your punctuation. It should look like:
    require_once( WP_LOAD_PATH . 'wp-admin/admin.php');

    Those need to be parenthesis () not {}. After WP_LOAD_PATH that is a period. wp-admin/admin.php needs to be surrounded by single quotes or double quotes (make sure your editor isn’t doing smart quotes. It needs to end with a semi-colon. (not trying to be insulting with the extra detail) ??
    If you still get syntax errors look up to the previous line and make sure something didn’t get changed. (you might need to re-download the plugin to compare).

    I had the same problem using the newest version of NGG and CF7. I switched to a new contact form (Fast Secure Contact Form) and disabled Contact Form 7. Then the gallery images and thumbnails loaded right up. Hmm.

    Can anyone provide a categorical answer on which plug-in is at fault here? i.e. which of the plug-in developers should be looking to resolve the issue (CF7 or NextGEN?). These are both 2 great plug-ins which I frequently use in combination but unless I can see a resolution on the horizon I guess I’ll have to switch to a different Contact Form as well. But I really don’t want to.
