Ok, so last night I took a deep breath and tried again.
First I tried installing the MaxiGallery from the trunk and then used the snippet code from MaxiGallery version 0.5.2. (I can’t find the actual snippet code in the trunk?)
But I couldn’t make it work with the wiki example
http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/MaxiGallery#Picture_and_thumbnails_on_same_page
I didn’t really get any errors, just a page with a manager button that wasn’t working.
Anyways, I then downloaded MaxiGallery from modxcms.com/downloads and used that one instead.
Now everything is working just fine.
I realized that I don’t really have a need for customFields at the moment, since the title and description field is sufficient enough.
The only problem I have now is making MaxiGallery format html code in the two fields.
I tried removing the PHx modifier :htmlent in the [+maxigallery.picture.title:htmlent+] and [+maxigallery.picture.descr:htmlent+] .
When you enter the page it displays the html just fine, but if you then click on another image, that’s where things start to go wrong. When I click on another image where no html is added it works, but then I can’t go back to the first image with the html code in the title - and description field.
Maybe this doesn’t make any sense at all, in that case you can have a look here:
http://dev.ziestha.dk/kids. And yes, I know that the use of tables is probably gonna hurt your eyes, but unfortunately I haven’t done the design so that wasn’t up to me.
Here is my setup:
Snippets:
[!MaxiGallery? &galleryPictureTpl=`mgGalleryPicture` &galleryOuterTpl=`mgOuterGallery` &manage_target=`187` &js=`mgJs`!]
[!MaxiGallery? &pictureTpl=`mgPicture` &display=`pictureview`!]
Chunks:

if (titleHolder != null) {

};
if (title != "") {
