@fjadrian – The NextGEN Basic Slideshow does not use the NextGEN Basic Thumbnails “captions” template.
If you want the thumbnails link from the slideshow to display a gallery with captions you would need to set that under Gallery > Gallery Settings > NextGEN Basic Thumbnails.
Unfortunately, this would still require you remove these template references from your slideshow shortcodes.
Thanks!

Sorry – my mistake. The problem exists with the NextGEN Baic Thumbnails.
And unfortunately I am not using shortcodes but these codes:
<img class=”ngg_displayed_gallery mceItem” src=”http://franzjosefadrian.com/nextgen-attach_to_post/preview/id–15128″ alt=”” />
@fjadrian – If you have set a specific template under the customizations panel, does it exist in the migration end-point where NextGEN Gallery expects it to be?
It is also quite common for migrations to require you use the Reset Option under Gallery > Other Options to ensure all of the path/routing is properly configured for the installation.
Have you tried that?
– Cais.
What NextGEN expects is what You can see here:
http://franzjosefadrian.com/wp-content/gallery/template/template2.jpg
It wants to use a template which does not exists at the absolute path.
The reset-button would only be usefull if I had used the shortcode:
[ngggallery id=xxx]
But I always used the little green button of the WordPress-editor to add a gallery – and so the code is:
<img class=”ngg_displayed_gallery mceItem” src=”http://franzjosefadrian.com/nextgen-attach_to_post/preview/id–15128″ alt=”” />
@fjadrian – Please go under Gallery > Gallery Settings > NextGEN Basic Thumbnails … change the template to the default (read: blank). You may need to manually delete the option that is shown in the drop-down. Save the settings.
Now, go back to the IGW of the display and make the same change there under customization and/or set it to the default gallery-captions.php selection.
Now, you may be able to just clear the image cache under Gallery > Other Options > Miscellaneous but I would still strongly recommend using the Reset Option under Gallery > Other Options to ensure those incorrect paths are not being used.

PS: If the “captions” template is your preferred default, then feel free to go back under Gallery > Gallery Settings to change your thumbnails back to using it after this is resolved.
Hello,
I have the same problem. I’ve migrated my website from a server to another, I use this code to add gallery :
<img class=”ngg_displayed_gallery mceItem” src=”http://website.com/nextgen-attach_to_post/preview/id–xxx” alt=”” />
And after clearing the cache and resetint option, it still show [Not a valid template]
Really need help here.
Thanks
