Ok, I understand now why that field isn’t currently included in the Quick Edit feature. Thanks for the response!

I still cannot figure out how to fix this…the same problem was described in this other thread recently.

I’m having this same problem and just created this post about it last night. Would love to find some solution to this. I tried changing my permalinks to default and then switching back, but the problem remains no matter what I do.

Ok, upon further experimentation, I’ve realized that this problem seems to be specific to my homepage. When I put the same gallery on one of my other pages, it displays properly, and I’m able to click through to the second page. So why is this only happening on my homepage?

Hi; thanks for the help on this. I had asked the same question on this thread several months back, and got a little bit of help, but was never able to sort out how to fix it. So I just decided not to use the NextGen RSS and to have only my normal blog RSS instead. Thanks for the additional info, though; if I decide to give it another try, this will help.

Brianarmas,
thanks so much for the response. That did help, and in fact removed the bracket from above the image in both RSS readers that I mentioned above. So there seems to be no problem with the feed displaying in Apple Mail. But the full images will still not display in Google Reader, and I’m not sure why…

I know that Google Reader caches everything as soon as it is posted and that you can’t delete a post from the reader cache (I was recently reading something about this on other sites), so I thought maybe to test the new changes I made in the media-rss.php file, I should add a new test image to the nextgen gallery so there would be a new post in the feed. I assumed that this post would display the full image in Google Reader, but it didn’t…instead of the actual image, I just see the image source tag with no closing bracket, like this:

<img src=’https://mattcoors.com/wp-content/gallery/blocks/block13.jpg&#8217;

Any idea why my images won’t display in Google Reader?

Hi;
I’m working on setting up my own portfolio/artist’s website as well, and I’m using the Nextgen plugin to display my galleries. Like the original poster, I was frustrated with the fact that there were no images displayed in the RSS feed updates, so I was really happy when I found this post. I wanted to try it using a test gallery that only has blank blocks of color in it…I’m really new to website stuff, and I know almost nothing about coding, but I was able to update the media-rss.php file, as described above. I used Bloomhash’s first suggestion, changing the code to:

$out .= $indent . “\t<description><![CDATA[” . nggGallery::i18n($desc) . “>
<img src='”. $image->imageURL .”‘]]></description>\n”;

Then I checked to see if the feed was working. I subscribed to the feed using apple mail, and the full-size images were displaying fine, except that there is a “>” on one line, directly before the image. When I subscribe to the feed using google reader, however, the images don’t display in the feed. Instead, there is the same “>” on the first line, and then the image source tag–without a closing bracket–on the second line. So it looks like this:

>
<img src=’https://mattcoors.com/wp-content/gallery/blocks/block3.jpg&#8217;

So it seems that for some reason the closing bracket is being displayed before the rest of the image tag, which is keeping some rss readers from displaying the image. Does anyone know what I can change to fix this problem? I would appreciate any help you could give.

Thanks,
–Matt

Hi;
thanks for the info. I’ve looked at your site quite a bit, actually, so I know there’s a lot of useful stuff there. One of the main reasons I’m interested in using NextGen Gallery is that I don’t like my images opening up in separate pages and I would prefer to incorporate some kind of pop-up. I’ve used NextGen with another site that I work with (that was set up by someone else), so I’m somewhat familiar with creating and maintaining galleries with it. My work isn’t in a timeline. I just want a grid of thumbnails that I can rearrange, caption, and replace whenever necessary; and I don’t want any comments, categories, widgets, or post dates to deal with. I like the simplicity of the popup thumbnail gallery inserted into a page—really I’m just trying to figure out if there’s a way to widen a NextGen image-list gallery to 900 pixels.

Anybody?
