I don’t want to be editing the php file if an update comes. Its certainly does come up, its when you try to add albums * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/#post-7434651) * **[@worchyld](https://wordpress.org/support/users/worchyld/)**: If you require assistance then, as per the [Forum Welcome](https://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Where_To_Post), please post your own topic. * Thread Starter [jhcrowe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jhcrowe/) * (@jhcrowe) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/#post-7434652) * I cleared the cache to see if that would help and there were not any changes.

Did the workaround as pinballw described. It works, the error-message disappears, but also the line with the link(s) back to other albums are gone 🙁 Therefore the workaround is not suitable for me. Is there any way to go back to a former version without that error? Sorry to say, I didn’t know the version before my update, shame on me 🙁 did also a new insert into the page where the albums are display (as that helped in the older case we had), but now no changes 🙁 * best regards Juergen * Plugin Contributor [Imagely](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imagely/) * (@imagely) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/#post-7434819) * [@juergenp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juergenp/) – Although it would still likely be best to start your own topic as this one is not providing the assistance you were looking for to find any previously published version of the plugin just look under the “Developers” menu item. * Here’s the direct link: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/nextgen-gallery/developers/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/nextgen-gallery/developers/) * Thanks! * – Cais. * [juergenp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juergenp/) * (@juergenp) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/#post-7434820) * Thanks Cais 🙂 Your link was hint enough for me, now I have the older version running without the “string-error”. My error/bug is explained above enough, so no need to open a new case 🙂 will wait until next or next-next version and monitor this thread, too. * best regards Juergen Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 22 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Update Problems’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/nextgen-gallery/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2083961) * [Photo Gallery, Sliders, Proofing and Themes - NextGEN Gallery](https://wordpress.org/plugins/nextgen-gallery/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/nextgen-gallery/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/nextgen-gallery/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/nextgen-gallery/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/nextgen-gallery/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/nextgen-gallery/reviews/) * 22 replies * 10 participants * Last reply from: [photocrati](https://wordpress.org/support/users/photocrati/) * Last activity: [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-problems-25/page/2/#post-7434903) * Status: resolved
