Hello,
I have same problem.
any solution ?
f
I downgraded my WP install, as I have to select 200 featured images for posts from NextGen gallery.
For new sites, the new WP media improvements may make NextGen obsolete for my needs.
Hi,
I noticed you can select a Featured Image for a post with Nextgen selector by using the “Insert Media” button.

Picking a “featured image” form the Nextgen gallery does not work in 3.5 with ElegantThemes. It hasn’t worked for over a year.
I was able to use featered image of next gen with elegant themes on previous wp. I had no problem then. Anyone found a solution to it?
Found it.
Go to your post, click edit post
add media. I know you are thinking I don’t need to add another picture I already got it in NEXT GEN. Well here you will find the button insert media of NEXT GEN gallery 😉
Hope this helps
You can still see featured images on your theme when using “Use as featured image” through NextGen. So you won’t have to upload a separate file just for your theme to have the image to work.
Here’s the solution:

That’s not the solution people are looking for racastro. It’s not an issue of displaying the image on the front-end, it’s an issue of when you press “Set featured issue” on the back-end it doesn’t allow you to select your image out of the NextGEN gallery.
@radcastro the solution I posted works. Why make it difficult when there is an easy solution to it?
