However, my externalURL appears with my blog URL before it. for example the link in alttext is "www.myexternalURL.com" but the final link comes out: www.myblogexample.com/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-smooth-gallery/www.externalURL.com Is there anyway of stripping this out? I am using NextGen Gallery v1.3.5 and NextGen SmoothGallery v1.0 Thanks in advance. Martin Hi Scott,

I think this will be to do with stripslashes - if you google "php slash apostrophe" or similar, you might find some pointers. Hope that helps.
