Hi Cactushead what security features have you enabled in the plugin?
Did you activate the following?
WP Security >> Firewall >> Prevent Hotlinks
If you did can you deactivate this feature and test again.
Also can you share your URL so that we can check.
Thank you
Hey mbrsolution
The site is not live at the moment but the first thing I tried was the preventing hotlinks option but it didn’t seem to change anything.
I should also correct my initial statement about what now happens, it tries to reload the page with the selected gallery but it goes to the page not found instead.
I have the dump of most of the features I have set here (only omitted secret keys and email stuff)

Hi can you disable all your other plugins except this one and Nextgen Gallery. Can you carry out another test.
Thank you
OK, just tried that but still the same problem.
Thanks
Try and deactivate all advance features in this plugin and carry out another test. If this works then enable one by one the advance features and carry out a test every time you enable one feature.
Thank you
OK, I will try that tomorrow (it’s late here, need some sleep)
Any particular advanced features you suggest – or just everything?
You assistance is most appreciated.
Hi, sorry about the late night. Please try everything so that we can workout what is causing your issue.
Thank you
Hi Cactushead,
By “advanced features” I think mbrsolution means the “advanced” firewall rules.
Hi @cactushead, what @wpsolutions is saying is correct. That is what I meant to type, sorry for not clarifying myself better.
Kind regards
OK, it was not any of the firewall rules but it seems like it was the “Enable Rename Login Page Feature”
Any ideas on how to keep this and not affect Nextgen Gallery’s functionality?
Hi @cactushead at the present you won’t be able to use the following security feature “Enable Rename Login Page Feature”. You can still use all other security features as long as they work for you.
I guess you can also report this issue with the Nextgen developers.
Kind regards
I’ve unset this feature in AIO WP Security and instead I have additionally installed “Rename wp-login.php” by Janneke Van Dorpe which offers the similar functionality.
This now means that I can set my login page to whatever I want as well as having full nextgen gallery functionality.
Thanks for all your replies
Hi @cactushead that is good news and you are most welcome. If your question has being answered could you mark this support thread as resolved.
Thank you
Thanks guys, all seems to work now.
