It has a fix in the widget but i want you to verify if it also fixes your issue

I installed the pre-release version, but the issue is still the same – on every WordPress widget does not save settings, and the photo album widget from wp-photo-album-plus only displays the default JPG.
It looks like this is not a problem with your plugin, because even after uninstalling all plugins the behavior is exactly the same – no widget in WordPress remembers or saves its settings, and many widgets display only fallback/default content.
For verification I tested the site locally using XAMPP – when I switch to a different theme there, everything works correctly and the widgets save settings properly. Because of this I think the problem comes from my current theme, which probably overrides widget handling or blocks saving options through the WP options API.
I don’t want to change the template for now, but I plan to fix the theme code later. Maybe you know how fix template?
I also have two additional questions:
- In the rating settings, is it possible to enable photo rating for users who are not logged in (guest visitors)? I want this option like previous version
- My gallery URL slug
/gallery/ does not show any album content – I think the theme captures this slug. Because of this I also cannot share the gallery on Facebook, and Facebook does not generate a preview image for shared links (no og:image). I suspect the gallery permalink structure is the main problem with sharing.
Let me know if WPPA+ has a built-in option to:
- allow rating by guests,
- or improve Facebook sharing when the gallery link does not load album view.
Best regards,
Thank you for your work on the plugin.
I assume you have block based widgets. If so, try classic widgets using plugin

Rating is disabled for security reasons. There were too many spam ratings
og:images only show the image when the image is in the url. This is the way it is designed
Looking at the album widget, it looks as if you have 3 toplevel albums tha do not contain images themselves. Is that correct?

I’ve tried almost everything. I changed the template, edited the higher PHP version, updated all plugins and even installed additional ones, but the album thumbnails still don’t show up. The strange thing is that everything works perfectly on my local server, but it doesn’t work on the live website.
The html code for displaying the thumbnail misses a lot of attributes.
Example from your site:
<img id="i-114" onmouseover="jQuery(this).fadeTo(400, 1.0);" onmouseout="jQuery(this).fadeTo(400, 0.85);">
Example of a good one from my testsite:
<img id="i-78576-106" title="The description of the Members album 😊" style="border-width: 0px; width: 86px; height: 67px; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; opacity: 0.8; cursor: pointer;" src="https://betatest.opajaap.nl/wp-content/uploads/wppa/thumbs/78/57/6.jpg?ver=1091" alt="Scan-0027.jpg" onmouseover="jQuery(this).fadeTo(400, 1.0);" onmouseout="jQuery(this).fadeTo(400, 0.8);">
This means that the photo to be used for the album cover can not be found.
(id=”i-78576-106” means its photo id 78576, id=”i-114” means: no item found)
Check on the Photo Albums -> Edit the album, Tab Cover what the cover photo setting is.
If it is set to default, check Photo Albums -> Settings -> Misc -> I -> Item 3: Default coverphoto selection,
