# Cannot import folder. "no method filetree"

 * I use Next Gen Gallery 2.0.33 and WP 3.7.1. Today, I upload many folders via 
   FTP. I successfully imported 10 of those folders and created galleries, and some
   short code to post my galleries on WP pages.
 * Right now, however, I am trying to import more folders. Hover over gallery, click‘
   Add Gallery/Images’, click ‘Import Folder’, and a pound-sign gets added to my
   url bar after the url. In Chrome, F12, leads to one error “Uncaught TypeError:
   Object [object Object] has no method ‘fileTree’ ” and a reference to:
 *     ```
       http://www.123.com/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/products/…/nextgen_addgallery_page/st%EF%BF%BDtic/jquery.filetree/jquery.filetree.js
       Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'fileTree' admin.php?page=ngg_addgallery:768
       ```
   
 * I am not able to see a Folder List as I was seeing this afternoon on my other
   computer at work. I tried Chrome 33, FireFox 25.0.1, IE 10.0.11. Cannot see a
   folder list, therefore cannot import folders.
 * Does anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks!

 * I think I have found .. somehow .. that the word static got corrupted. Does anybody
   know what file I will find that code in so I can fix it?

 * I found the code .. module.nextgen_addgallery_page.php .. However, even if I 
   move the .js file out of the static directory .. or get rid of the php call to
   find the static directory .. the word “Static” .. or wherever I put the file 
   seems to get corrupted on one computer. It works fine from other computers. Just
   installed firefox for the first time, same deal there. When I view source, the
   word ‘Static’ has percent signs in it. I have tried to change the encoding (utf-
   8, windows-1252) …
 * Does anybody have any ideas as to why these Percent-Codes are showing up?
 * st%EF%BF%BDtic …. instead of the word ‘static’
    or `/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-
   gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/nex%EF%BF%BDgen_addgallery_page/jquery.
   filetree.js`
 * nex%EF%BF%BDgen_addgallery …. instead of the word ‘nextgen’ ?
 * Strangely, it works fine on two other computers.
 * Doesn’t seem like a javascript problem, other than the fact that it’s not loading
   the file, because it can’t find it, because the html appears corrupted. Bizarre!

 * [@patrickhait](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickhait/) – That is a 
   very odd and very unique issue, it may be best for you to completely re-install
   manually the current NextGEN Gallery via FTP as your next course of action.
 * – Cais.
