[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] different slideshow per page in the header

Yes – you need to utilize conditional tags.

See this codex article – check out snippet 3 for some good hints.

I did something like this, to have a different slideshow per page:

<?php if (is_page('4')  || $post->post_parent == '4' ) : ?>
         <?php if (function_exists("nggSlideshowWidget"))
           {nggSlideshowWidget($galleryID=2,$Width=390,$Height=260); }

<?php elseif (is_page('5') || $post->post_parent == '5'  ): ?>
         <?php if (function_exists("nggSlideshowWidget"))
           {nggSlideshowWidget($galleryID=3,$Width=390,$Height=260); }
         ?>

<?php endif ?>

But NGG Slideshow just sits there showing the loading icon forever…
Anyone know what’s wrong? Some syntax problem with nested if’s?

PS: Galleries exists, and images inside galleries present

…Nevermind, just solved it myself:

<?php if (is_page('4')  || $post->post_parent == '4' ) : ?>
               <?php if (function_exists("nggSlideshowWidget"))
            nggSlideshowWidget($galleryID=2,$Width=390,$Height=260); ?>

<?php elseif (is_page('5') || $post->post_parent == '5'  ): ?>
               <?php if (function_exists("nggSlideshowWidget"))
            nggSlideshowWidget($galleryID=3,$Width=390,$Height=260); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

It’s always that last thing you try.
