Advanced Custom Fields: NextGEN Gallery Field add-on Plugin

This is an add-on for the Advanced Custom Fields WordPress plugin and will not provide any functionality to WordPress unless advanced Custom Fields is installed and activated.

The NextGEN Gallery field provides a dropdown (select or multi-select) of NextGEN Gallery names (galleries and albums) and the ability to map the selected NextGEN Gallery to the post.
The get_value() API returns an array of the selected NextGEN Gallery IDs and the form – album or gallery.

[0] => Array (
[ngg_id] => 8 ( NextGEN Gallery ‘gallery’ or ‘album’ ID )
[ngg_form] => gallery ( ‘gallery’ or ‘album’ )
)
