I had the same problem and it caused my site to suddenly start opening a new browser tab for things like weird dating websites. I was certain I’d been hacked after people were emailing me telling me how annoyed they were with my site. I figured they were right, I’d been hacked, until I realized that it was this plugin causing the issue. I disabled it and will be looking for a different plugin to suit my needs.

Thanks. Does it work with the premium version?

The most recent change I made was upgrading to the latest version of wordpress and updating plugins. I have yet to disable my plugins as a test, so I’ll go that route next.

Yes, I checked and my database user has all necessary permissions. I never had this issue before, but I’ve had NextGen installed for years. Everything seems fine, so it’s possible that it’s a bug or a plugin conflict.

I’m having the same issue after upgrading to version 2.1.15. I’m running version 4.3 of wordpress. I’ve been using NextGen since 2011 without any issues, and in fact the plugin is still functioning without any problems. Nevertheless, I’m being given the error “NextGEN Gallery: Tables could not created, please check your database settings” whenever I login to my dashboard. I’m not overly concerned since the plugin seems to be behaving normally, but it’s still an odd error to see. My site relies heavily on NextGen, so if it were to fail it would be a huge problem for me.

Thanks for any help!

I added this line of code, which fixed my site (made the archive page list in ascending order, which is what I wanted):

function change_order($orderby, $query) {
global $wpdb;
if(is_archive())
$orderby = “{$wpdb->prefix}posts.post_date ASC”;
return $orderby;
}
add_filter(‘posts_orderby’,’change_order’);

I added this lto my functions.php file and it seemed to fix the error:

function change_order($orderby, $query) {
global $wpdb;
if(is_archive())
$orderby = “{$wpdb->prefix}posts.post_date ASC”;
return $orderby;
}
add_filter(‘posts_orderby’,’change_order’);

That gets me closer but now it’s doing some odd positioning of the ad – take a look: https://www.largecarmag.com/wordpress/

Very cool – I’ll check it out!

Ah…well that opens up a lot of possibilities. Is widgetizing a section of a site difficult? I figure I could make the new area of the header able to accepts widgets, then I could use a dynamic ad widget in that area.

I’m stuck more or less on just knowing what’s possible. It seems like the header.php file is consistent throughout the site (I don’t think I could make more than one header.php file).

I have indeed crafted a child theme out of twenty eleven.

I did find the search form in header.php

I would need to build the html/css div tag, although I do have a mockup of what I’m trying to do in static html.

I’m not familiar with conditional tags. I’ve seen a few tutorials on them but I don’t have a firm grasp on them by any means. I’m pretty much a newbie to wordpress.
