NextGen galleries, captions disappeared

I already have to re-save/re-insert all my galleries with every update of core or other plugins… this is very frustrating, and with this latest update, I now have no captions, even upon inserting a new gallery…

anyone else with same issue?

if my client didn’t insist on custom sized thumbnails for each image, I would NOT be using it.
if anyone knows of another plug in where I can accomplish this, let me know.

thank you,
Christine

OH and BTW, this is the worst forum for finding your way around and “how” to start a new topic in the correct area…
