NextCellent has vanished from the WordPress.org plugin library and no update from the author for awhile šŸ™ .

If the plugin is insecure, we need information and we act upon that. Of course we would like an update, but if we donā€™t get it, we need to move to another plugins. - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [weigertj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weigertj/). - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [weigertj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weigertj/). - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [weigertj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/weigertj/). * [nikivanov](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nikivanov/) * (@nikivanov) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-vanished-from-wp-library/#post-9033764) * I agree with previous messages. We are all unaware of whether this plug-in will be updated. If yes, then when? Your plugin makes fewer requests to the database and therefore the page is generated much faster than when using Nextgen Gallery 2. But if the security problem is unlikely to be resolved within a reasonable time, I will need to switch on NG2. Please let us know if there will be an security updateā€¦ * [KristinaHSvensson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kristinahsvensson/) * (@kristinahsvensson) * [8 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-vanished-from-wp-library/#post-9223179) * Any news on NextCellent? * Iā€™ve been having a few problems but worked around it by only using shortcodes and single pictures. I was waiting (hoping) for an update. * What is happening?

NextCellent is a fork of the old NextGen. Some of us prefer it for different reasons. * Plugin Author [WPReady](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpready/) * (@wpready) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-vanished-from-wp-library/#post-9281652) * Hi there, this is the current Nextcellent status: Iā€™ve added few fixes needed for running Nextcellent with the last WordPress version. Also Iā€™m fixing several vulnerabilities, some of them VERY serious. WordPress reviewers were very kind pointing me the issues so far. Some (minor) functionality will be cut in the next version in order of getting the release working properly. * Finally, every time I found a vulnerabilty, Iā€™m ending up finding more things to fix, making this release painful to finish. * Iā€™ve been promising a new version July 1st, but it will take two or three days more. My apologies for the delay. Stay tuned! * [Zigzagnico](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zigzagnico/) * (@zigzagnico) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-vanished-from-wp-library/#post-9281732) * Hello, * Itā€™s a very good news. Nice to read you. * Bruno * Thread Starter [ispreview](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ispreview/) * (@ispreview) * [8 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-vanished-from-wp-library/#post-9286690) * Good news indeed, if true. I recall a similar post in December 2016, so will hold my breathe with some hope and see what happens this week. * Iā€™ve been experimenting with moving back to NextGen Gallery but have found that NextCellent and NextGen appear to handle custom sized (array) featured thumbnail images in a different way, which means images added under NextCellent like thisā€œ the_post_thumbnail( array(330, 400) );ā€ wonā€™t display when you re-enable NextGen( Iā€™d have to manually re-apply the featured images to thousands of posts in order to overcome this). * However otherwise NextGen does now handle featured images properly, including WPs new auto-resizing codes for responsive design, which is something that NextCellent doesnā€™t seem able to do. Still Iā€™d rather keep using NextCellent as itā€™s both faster and more lightweight for my server.
