Title: [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Plugin will not create thumbnails Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Plugin will not create thumbnails * [ed146](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ed146/) * (@ed146) * [17 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-plugin-will-not-create-thumbnails/) * I just upgraded wordpress to 2.7 and also, the nextgen plugin to latest 1.2.0. However, after the above upgrades, any new albums I create, the script will not generate thumbnails. I can see text and frame around the picture, but if you click on it, you can see the picture. Any albums created prior to upgrades are not affected for some reason. I can see thumbnails just fine. * I have read similar threads on this forum, but no one has suggested solution to this problem. * Here is my server config. * * Operating System : Linux * Server : LiteSpeed * Memory usage : 14.45 MByte* MYSQL Version : 5.0.67-community-log * SQL Mode : Not set * PHP Version : 5.2.9* PHP Safe Mode : Off * PHP Allow URL fopen : On * PHP Memory Limit : 128M * PHP Max Upload Size : 50M * PHP Max Post Size : 8M * PHP Max Script Execute Time : 30s * PHP Exif support : Yes ( V1.4 ) * PHP IPTC support : Yes * PHP XML support: Yes * * GD Version : bundled (2.0.34 compatible) * FreeType Support : Yes * FreeType Linkage : with freetype * T1Lib Support : No * GIF Read Support : Yes * GIF Create Support : Yes * JPG Support : Yes * PNG Support : Yes * WBMP Support : Yes * XPM Support : Yes * XBM Support : Yes * JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support : No * Please help me out here!!
