Hi All,
Firstly, just a quick message to say that im thoroughly impressed with K2 - it's great that someone has finally done this for Joomla!
Secondly - I've installed the latest K2 release (after first uninstalling the beta) and had a few errors pop up. It seems that the only plugin which i had to upload manually was the search plugin.
Although, I've now tried to make a gallery for an item; and all that appears is the opening and closing {gallery} tag with 1 between them? Any ideas?
I have SIG plugin installed (and turned on) so not sure whats happening?

the free plugin is problematic at best, firstly each gallery needs to be duplicated from /media/k2/galleries to /images/stories and even then they only show up occasionally.
That said though the pro version is very cheap and I just decided what the hell, bought it and my site runs perfectly - www.bikechatter.co.uk

Thanks bunglehaze.
When you say 'pro version' do you mean the pro version of SIG ?

thanks guys. i've actually made some mods to the plugin so that it works onk2preparecontent rather than onpreparecontent - that was the problem. I've also mod'd the showthumbnail file so it works on the /media/k2/galleries folder - so no need to move the files after upload.

No probs. Amends are attached.
Please note!; these changes will mean that the plugin will now only check within the K2 content for a {gallery} tag, so normal content won't be processed.
It is possible to do this - and i will probably do this at some point - but for the time being it was a quick change to make it work.
It will now look for galleries within /media/k2/galleries/ not /images/stories/ etc.
