 * Hi, I have installed the nextgen galleries plugin and then wp-greet plugin. Sorry
   for the basic question I am new to this. How do I make it work after that? I 
   have created a gallery, and tried configuring the wp-greet plugin. It doesn’t
   seem to work. Can someone please help me? Any help would be much appreciated.
   Thank you

 * Well did you follow the description at [http://www.tuxlog.de/wordpress/2008/wp-greet-documentation-english/](http://www.tuxlog.de/wordpress/2008/wp-greet-documentation-english/)
   
   It is a bit out of date but should cover the basics.

 * I installed the plug-in and cannot make it run either. The two pages work, but
   won’t link. If I click on an image, the form doesn’t show. Could you please help
   me out?

 * hey, did you follow the english description to setup the plugin?
    To link a gallery
   you have to go to the admin dialog of wp-greet. On the galleries page you can
   select the galleries you want to be connected to wp-greet and then click save.
 * I tried to visit your page but it seems to be in maintenance mode, so I can’t
   have a look in detail.

   could take a look? The page greet is also in the meny for now, maybe it helps
   to see what the problem is?
    Thanks in advance. Linda

 * Hi Linda,
 * first the good news it seems wp-greet and ngg are doing well and the images can
   be found.
    The link looks allright but the page is still not found.
 * Do you have a security plugin or changed something in your .htaccess file to 
   prevent URL’s using GET parameters to be executed?
    Seems the URL [http://www.luxelei.nl/greet/?gallery=2&image=http://www.luxelei.nl/wp-content/gallery/mycards/i-love-my-bike.jpg](http://www.luxelei.nl/greet/?gallery=2&image=http://www.luxelei.nl/wp-content/gallery/mycards/i-love-my-bike.jpg)
   is not found because everything after the ? is ignored or interpreted as something
   wrong.

 * No, I dont have a security plugin and changed nothing in .htaccess file. The 
   strange thing is that the link works if i change the url to [http://www.luxelei.nl/greet/](http://www.luxelei.nl/greet/)?**
   ng**gallery=2&image=http://www.luxelei.nl/wp-content/gallery/mycards/i-love-my-

   please. I have an idea.

 * Gallery path = wp-content/gallery/
    Delete image files when removing gallery 
   = check Activate permalinks = When you activate this option, you need to update
   your permalink structure one time. Gallery slug name : gallery Select graphic
   library = GD library check Activate media rss feed = blank Activate piclens/coollris
   = blank Activate related images = blank Match with tags

 * Yes thats what I meant. Thank you. Well, but even with this I can not reproduce
   the problem at my test site. There must be something special in your setup. What
   other plugins do you use?

 * luxelei,
    Did you get it to work because I am having exactly the same problem.
   If I add ng before gallery it works or if I remove gallery=2 it also works. Please
   advise what you did to fix it?

 * Hey, there if you use NGG v2.0.x you have to use wp-greet latest version and 
   follow the instructions given in the admin dialog. Due to the heavy redesign 
   with NGG >=v2.0.0 and the many problems they have with it.
 * You have to change a file and select the correct lightbox effect. wp-greet displays
   what to do when you activate it.
 * Hope it helps

 * I took the latest index.php from the patch folder and changed the lightbox effect
   to shutter. It is linking whereas before it was opening up the lightbox – but
   when you link it gets a page that doesn’t exist

 * Well, what page did you setup as the form page? And does it exist?
