[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Thumbnail rows?

  • How can I make the thumbnails appear in rows above eachother instead of just as one high column? Missed something?
    I’m sure this has been asked previously, but can’t find it.
    Thanks,
    Kjetil

    Impossible? Hope not…!

    No, this has happend before, this is an error in your CSS of your theme.

    If you would test out that page with another theme, I’m sure it wouldn’t do that.

    Hope that helps…

    Thanks
    but this a live site with quite a lot traffic, so switching theme will take it down (lots of category templates etc).
    Any hint on where in the CSS I should start looking?

    Install firebug for firefox, it will help you to learn CSS very fast and easy…

    Thanks Alex – also for the job you’re doing.
    I’ve set up some sites using css (and I know firebug), I just don’t know what to look for to make thumbnails show up side-by-side.
    Do I understand it correctly, that by default the thumbs should show up side by side? I’ve tried NGG in some sites using different themes (like this) but with no nice results so far.
    Thanks

    Switch to default theme for a test, and check for wp_head(); (See FAQ)

    I’m having the same problem. I don’t see wp_head(); anywhere. When I tried to add it, it gave me an error loading the page.

    I also have firebug, and have looked over the CSS very closely, but really have no idea what I’m looking for either. Can you please tell us what causes the pics to be in a single column so we at least know what to look for? Thanks,

    Okay, I fixed it based on Alex’s advice. Basically what he is saying is that you need to have the wp_head php code in your header.php file (within the <head></head>) in order for it to work properly.

    Here is the code in case you need it:

    <?php wp_head(); ?>

    Now I GOT it!
    There was no code missing, but i had to ACTIVATE a STYLE SHEET – under Gallery -> style
    Obvious? Not to me.
    Thanks for your efforts though ??

    I have the same issue. I’ve got <?php wp_head(); ?> in my header.php. Also I’ve checked with default templates. Still, thumbnails are displaying vertically, in a row. It worked fine when I checked two days ago. Now it’s messed up.

    I have the same problem as mmphs above. It worked also fine with me a few days ago. now the images are in one single row only, also after the update to Nextgen Gallery 1.02. https://www.myfareast.net
    Thanks a lot!

    It took 2 hours to find out…

    It’s just like kjetilgf was saying:

    Go to “Gallery/Style” and in the upper right corner mark the box “Activate and use style sheet”, choose a style sheet (Default Styles) and click on “Activate”.

    Also make sure to remove all changes you made in the nggallery.css (bring back the original)…

    This works for me and i’m happy that i don’t need to learn css now *ironic*

    Activate one of the special styles, ok. But it isn’t obvious to manually activate the default style.

    Hope that helped ??

    Check your file permissions, especially those of the CSS-files. That was my problem, I didn’t have “execute” for .css. Works like a charm now. And thanks for the great software.

    Ok, I am building my first WP site and still have a lot to learn. This plugin is perfect for my needs, thank you Alex!

    I am having the problem of my gallery showing up as one column instead of horizontal and my style is not showing up. Like problem #2 for bennuloglu.

    For MaXsiM’s fix, when I go to Gallery, then style, I have no box to activate in the upper right corner. It tells me “Your theme contain a NextGEN Gallery stylesheet (nggallery.css), this file will be used”

    I get what has been said about file permission and I’ve read through the codex on Changing File Permissions but am confused.

    I can’t find and “execute” option when I right click on a php or css file. WP version 2.8 and currently I am self hosting while building the site.

    Can anybody help?
