## Description

**Please use at least version 1.8.3 of NextGEN Gallery. This plugin is not tested
with lower versions**

NextGEN Gallery Comments give power to the best wordpress gallery plugin i have 
seen! With my plugin, now all users can leave comments to your galleries. Comments
are also displayed in admin in Comments section and in manage gallery page.

** * * NOTE * * **

For now, comments are show on galleries only when they are not called directly in
post/page with shortcode. Example:

[nggallery id=X] —-> gallery comments are not showed

[album id=X] —-> gallery comments are showed (Not in album list, but inside the 
gallery page)

I will check in next release to find a way to do it.

#### Features

 * Template : You can add custom comment form template for your theme. (read F.A.
   Q.)

## Installation

 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress (you need NextGEN Gallery
    plugin to be active!)

That’s it … Have fun

## FAQ

  I have installed the plugin but i can’t see any admin options page. Where is it?

Ehm.. this is my first release of my first plugin, in next versions i will ad an
option page with various options.

  What about customizing the comments page?

This is a simple task. This plugin use the template `comments-nggallery.php` inside`
plugins/nextgen-gallery-comments/template` to show comments list and form.
 If you
want to customize it, copy it and paste in your theme inside `nggallery` folder (
if this not exists, create it. This folder is needed to customize [NextGEN Gallery templates](http://nextgen-gallery.com/templates/))

  If i click the logout button in gallery comment form, the page is bad redirected.
How can i fix it?

You have to use a filter (put it in FUNCTIONS.PHP in your theme) to change the logout
url:

add_filter(‘your_function’,’rcwd_comment_form_defaults’);
 function your_function(
$defaults){ global $user_identity, $post_id; if(get_query_var(‘gallery’) != ”){ 
$logout_url = esc_attr($_SERVER[“REQUEST_URI”]); }else{ $logout_url = get_permalink(
$post_id); } $defaults[‘logged_in_as’] = ‘

‘ . sprintf( __( ‘Logged in as [%2$s](https://scn.wordpress.org/plugins/nextgen-gallery-comments/%1$s?output_format=md).
[Log out?](https://scn.wordpress.org/plugins/nextgen-gallery-comments/%3$s?output_format=md)‘),
admin_url( ‘profile.php’ ), $user_identity, wp_logout_url( apply_filters( ‘the_permalink’,
$logout_url ) ) ) . ‘

‘;
 return $defaults;

}
