Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Photoswipe for NextGEN Gallery

The javascript added when a mobile browser is detected does two things: a) Fire the Photoswipe viewer when you click on a image b) Remove the default additional HTML markup added in the "Link Code Line" of the Effects tab in NextGen Gallery Options That way, the standard defined effect won't fire when Photoswipe is used. Please don't change the markup, or two viewers may fire at the same time. If you absolutely need to change the "Link Code Line", change the ngg-photoswipe.js to remove the specific markup you add.

No, sorry, this plugin DOES NOT WORK WITH WPTOUCH.

Yes, the description will show behind the title, if the image has one.

No, sorry. But you can edit the ngg-photoswipe.js file to achieve what you want.
