    It seems to me after hours of searching for help, many people are having issues with the short code [nggtags gallery=”tag”].

    I’m trying to display images uploaded via ngg by php <?php echo do_shortcode('[nggtags gallery=tag]'); ?> I’ve tried several different methods and tags but nothing is working on a consistent basis. I’ve even tried them with just the short code in the WYSIWYG editor and nothing is showing up.

    Is anyone else having trouble?

  • Same issue here. Running 3.4.1 with the latest NextGenGallery and shortcodes do not work, even on a basic page. Looking to do exactly what you have described above with do_shortcode.

    I have just had some success. You can not use non-alphanumeric characters in tags. Even dashes will cause a match to fail.

    Now on to the next problem… trying to get the nggallery.css file to load on pages generated with the do_shortcode() call.

    Additional information that may help is that you must place the list of tag names in quotes (e.g. [ nggtags gallery='tag1,tag2,tag3' ] ) for it to work.

    I have this working now, so, if I can offer any assistance, please let me know here.

    Thanks for your tips! I’ve had to change my plans to integrate NGG because of these quirks. Seems that NGG is not as friendly as I first thought it was.
