Description

Imagify was previously compatible with NextGEN Gallery by Imagely, providing image optimization controls directly inside the NextGEN Gallery interface.

Before NextGEN Gallery v4.x, Imagify integration included:
• A Bulk Optimization option available in the NextGEN Gallery menu to optimize all galleries
• An option to optimize images individually while managing galleries

After updating to NextGEN Gallery v4.x and later, which introduced a complete UI/UX revamp, all Imagify-related controls are no longer visible:
• No bulk optimization option in the NextGEN Gallery menu
• No individual image optimization controls in gallery management views

This suggests that the previous compatibility no longer works with the new NextGEN Gallery UI.

Steps to Reproduce (STR)
1. Install an older version of NextGEN Gallery (pre-v4.x):

2. Create a demo gallery with images.
3. Observe:
• Imagify bulk optimization option is available in the NextGEN Gallery menu
• Individual image optimization options are visible while managing galleries
4. Update NextGEN Gallery to the latest version (v4.x+).
5. Observe:
• Imagify bulk optimization option is no longer present
• Imagify image optimization controls are missing from gallery management views

Expected Result

Imagify optimization controls (bulk and individual) should be available inside the NextGEN Gallery interface, as they were before the v4.x UI changes.

Additional Context

Imagify documented official compatibility with NextGEN Gallery:
https://imagify.io/documentation/optimize-images-nextgen-gallery/

Given that the compatibility existed in earlier versions, this likely needs to be reviewed and updated to support the new NextGEN Gallery UI/UX.
