Yes, definitely hold off until a minor release comes out
That’s what I did, stay with the previous version. It’s working well.
I tested ver 2, however, on a small site of ours, not much problems except that the “none” option in Effects is gone, and page numbers gone (although it goes to next page, but it surely will be a duplicate title that will be seen by Google). Haven’t tested uploading. Anyway, reverted that back too to the previous version.
Thank you emmalmurphy and astrasuite. The fear started to set in when I saw all the changes which prompted me to look through the support tickets, I’m glad it did because I wouldn’t have a clue how to revert back.
How long do you think I should wait?
WordPress 3.6 just came in, that will make it worse, jquery is a source of many clashes. Even the theme I am using had to make an emergency patch due to the jquery issue.
Nothing wrong with the previous Nextgen version, it’s fantastic, and it works great.
