Problem using WP-GPX-Maps with NGG

Try this
[sgpx gpx=”/wp-content/uploads/gpx/< gpx file name >” ngimages=<id>,<id>,<id>,<id>,<id>,<id>—etc]

@itpow – I’m not familiar with the plugin you are referring to or how its shortcodes would work but as it appears to be extending NextGEN Gallery you might want to contact the author to advise them there could be an issue they need to address.

@sasa385 – Thanks for sharing your idea …

Thanks guys for your replies, I really appreciated.

@plugin author :). I have spent several hours debugging and testing… The problem started with NGG version 2.0.71…. I have rolled back to 2.0.66.37 and it is working now. The problem is showing NGG images on google maps using plugin ‘WP GPX Maps’ that mentioned on your website as a one of the NGG extension plugins (that I assume new versions would be tested for compatibility with). Is seems like it is either no longer compatible with NGG starting from 2.0.7x or it is a NGG bug (I believe, from what I saw while testing it is second, but I may be wrong).

It is very easy to replicate the problem. All you need is an image with GPS data in it, install WP GPX Maps and use following shortcode [sgpx nggalleries=<number>]
It will hit line 39 in wp-content/plugins/wp-gpx-maps/wp-gpx-maps_utils_nggallery.php (sgpx plugin):
$item[“data”] = $p->thumbHTML;
And then it will die in line 2076 in wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/nextgen_data/package.module.nextgen_data.php

I really don’t have enough time to continue working on this, but it would be really good if you try to check why it is not working.

Please contact me if you need more information ??

@sasa385, Thanks for your reply (on both forums (NGG and WP GPX Maps). I saw your workaround before I started my topics. Unfortunately the workaround is not suitable for me (otherwise I would not even bother to use this forum) as some of my galleries are pretty big (40-60 images) and it impractical to create long coma separated lists, but also because I use single generic page to show maps. Gallery id is sent as a as a parameter to the page.

Regards ??

@itpow – It would appear the other plugin was using NextGEN Legacy code which was removed as we no longer use it ourselves. This being the case I would strongly recommend you go back to the third-party extension author to update to more current methods to ensure better future-proofing their code.

As it is, we will be re-introducing these NextGEN Legacy methods with our next release which should also sort out the problems here.

Thanks!

Thanks Cais ??

I will contact plugin author and try to inform him/her to stop using legacy interface. I believe that would be best solution for everyone ??

It would also be good (if possible) if we resolve the issue with you guys as I’m afraid that with WP GPX Maps it may take much longer… :/

Thanks again and regards.

@itpow – The corrections are already in place and committed for the next release of NextGEN Gallery … we hope to have it (at worst) publicly available as a beta very soon but are aiming to release it as a stable version this week.
