  1. Plugin works fine, but when I switch it to display images from category of posts, the slideshow works fine with an attached “Featured Item” but it tiles the image.

    Anyway that this can been changed to fit the slideshow content area?

    Thanks.

    1. Yes there is issue with images tiled if they are small in width as compared to the slideshow width. I am still working on the next release. I will try to sort out this bug in next version this plugin. just wait for some days.

    1. I don’t know. My client has noticed the problem on her machine. I don’t use IE and just verified the probem on a computer I borrowed. I don’t have access to that computer now. Does it work on IE 8 then?

    2. I will check which IE version it occurs in. Any suggestions on how to correct this issue, if it occurs with earlier versions of IE?

  3. If you upgraded from the Version 1.2 then Make sure your wordpress version is 2.9 or more.

    Current version don’t have custom fields. And one more options is added for the Image Source. i.e custom images. you can add as many images as you want without creating posts.

    Just goto content-slide options page and you will see all the options there to change settings of the slider.

  4. I think you added superfish or any other jquery code because of which there is a conflict .. check javascript errors..

  5. may be there are javascripts errors. that’s why the slider is not working.

  6. Hi,

    I have this plugin installed on two websites (on the same host) and they both have identical settings.

    Site A is working perfectly, with images fading into each other (3 images in total). Site B which also has 3 images, won’t fade images into each other. They fade out completely then fade in, at a much longer timescale.

    Can you think of what could be causing this? as they are setup identically.

    thanks

  8. thanks for your suggestion. I will try to add this in the future releases.

  9. Is there a maximum time (or slowest) delay between images appearing during the fade effect? It appears whatever I change the delay time to it wont affect it.

  10. Hi, this is by far the best content gallery.

    Cheers!
