 * I’ve just automatically upgarded nextGEN Gallery to 1.7.0 on WordPress 3.0.3 
   and it asks to update the database with a link in WordPress Admin. Unfortunately
   this link doesn’t take you anywhere and stops you editing nextGEN from the backend.
   Front-end nextGEN all still works. Any thoughts?

 * I have this same issue, too. I have put in a support request to upgrade site 
   to PHP5 if it isn’t already.
 * I’ll try and deactivate other plugins as a test, too.
 * It was working fine before the 1.7.0 upgrade.

 * FYI: My ISP upgraded my WP website to PHP5 (on a Sunday!) and the “update database”
   ran just fine. 🙂

 * I appologize the troubkrs, but it looks that you need PHP5 now, Version 1.6.2
   should be ok for PHP4

 * Hi Everyone,
 * Thank you for all the replies. I am on PHP4 and have no immediate plans to upgrade
   to PHP5, so will roll back to 1.6.2.
 * Cheers

 * I suggest for all user <5.2 to stay at that version which is running, looks like
   there are more troubles and useful function

 * I’ve experienced an issue with NextGen Gallery v1.7.2 and Word Press v3.0.4. 
   Editors were able to create galleries, but when trying to include a gallery to
   a post, the selection process wasn’t working.
 * Seeing the trouble I’ve tried to downgrade to v1.7.1, then to v1.7.0 and only
   when I came back to v1.6.2. the bug disappeared.
 * I would recommend you to use v1.6.2 for now 🙂

 * I am having a similar problem, except after activating the latest NextGen plug-
   in on a current version of WordPress, my admin backend is just a blank page.
 * Front-end of the site is fine. I can log in, but all I get is nothing / white.
 * Is there any way to deactivate or remove the plug-in now that I can’t access 
   the backend of the site? I am not sure if I will be able to get FTP access.
 * Thanks for any help.
