Settings are saved in CP but changes aren't seen in frontend

Hello.
I just installed this extension last night and I like it so far. I just have a few problems.
When I change and settings in CP, it doesn’t seem to affect the gallery at all. I’ve changed sizes, templates and other settings with no results. The settings are saved in the CP but that doesn’t change the front end. I have uninstalled & reinstalled a few times, but that did not work either. I found a post with a similar issue for an older version, but did not see a solution.
Here are the specifics:
Joomla 1.5
Component Version: 3.0.180
Plugin Version: 3.1.0
Button Version: 1.0.2v

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Just to check: does your site need a Cache Clean when changes are made? Try this anyway, it may be that the browser is holding the old settings.

Well there is two levels of settings, GLOBAL(in CP) and LOCAL({AG [SETTINGS]}.
Local settings override global settings, and that is expected behavior. This is the basics of how it works.

Now, using AdmirorGallery, if you add a Menu Item using "Admiror Gallery -> Layout -> Layout" changing GLOBAL setting will NOT effect this gallery. You need to go to Menus->[Menu with the gallery]->[Gallery menu item]
Parameters on the right are specific for that gallery only, so there are LOCAL, and changing this parameters will have effect on the gallery output, but only for this gallery.

Let me know did this helped :)
