          Did you follow these steps?


          Create a Gallery using the Gallery plugin
          Upload images to your gallery and set an image description
          Create a new document and select the nivoGallery template
          Go to the Template Variables tab and select your Gallery from the drop down list, select your Gallery options and Publish.
          View your NivoGallery

          Look at the style.css file in the assets/templates/nivoSlider folder to edit some styles so you can customize your gallery.

                You are making a much bigger thing out of this than it needs to be.

                NivoGallery is a Javascript gallery formatter. It works on the page in the user's browser. It expects a certain HTML structure to arrange and manipulate the images.

                Gallery is the MODx gallery management component that takes care of uploading and organizing your image files on the server. It has a snippet to use for generating lists of these organized images before the page is sent to the user's browser.

                Just use a tpl for the Gallery snippet that generates the HTML that the NivoGallery (or any other Javascript image manipulation script) needs.

                  Thanx sottwell for help,

                  can u give me any example of "tpl" for use the gallery in my page without use the NivoGallery..

                  in other word's, i mean to say that can u give me the Gallery snippet example for call the gallery images in my home page ..? so i can use that rather then "NivoGallery"..


                  Thanx ..

                    You still need NivoGallery. It is the javascript that does the fancy stuff in the browser. Otherwise you'll just have a list of images. The Gallery snippet's tpl is just to provide the HTML structure that NivoGallery expects.

                    NivoGallery doesn't care where its list of images comes from.

                    MODx and the Gallery snippet don't care what the browser does with the list it generates.

                    If you installed the Gallery extra and created a gallery with it, then the NivoGallery extra will provide you with everything you need to set up the NivoGallery javascript. Just do exactly what it says.
