Have Followed Instructions, Voting Not Appearing

I have installed the plugin, added the tag to the proper template and enabled it in the gallery I am using.
However, despite adding the following tag to my proper index:
<!– Image Voting –><?php echo nggv_imageVoteForm($image->pid); ?><!– /Image Voting –>

I am not getting the voting to come up. When I view the page source, I can see that I have edited the proper template, as I see:
<!– Image Voting –><!– /Image Voting –>

The “<!– Image Voting –>” I’ve added for organization in my code. BUt that’s the only thing that shows up in my Page Source. Why would this be? It wouldn’t be showing up if I edited the wrong template, correct? I can’t figure out why it’s stripping out the other code I input.
I am running your plugin version 2.7.5, and the page i”m working on is: http://www.silencerco.com/gallery-test

Please assist.

Hi cwhit

Have you actually enabled voting on the images in the gallery? The NGG settings screen is for setting the defaults for new images. Existing images can have their voting settings toggled via NGG’s “manage gallery” screens.

Haha the guys here are giving me so much shit. That worked. Just FYI, I didn’t see any real instructions anywhere that differentiated how setup would be different for existing galleries/images over new ones. I should’ve thought of that, but it might be worth it to put that prominently for other users – that existing images need to be set at individual image level. It may be there and I just missed it.

Is there a way in either version (free or paid) to randomize images so they come up in a different order every time? We’re trying to prevent the first few images from getting all the votes.

“Here you can set the default voting options for Galleries and Images. Changing these options will not affect any existing Galleries or Images. You can change the settings per image or gallery from the ‘Manage Gallery’ screen in NextGEN Gallery.”

– Text above NGG Voting settings screen

Cool.

Any way to randomize images in a gallery so they come up differently every time?
