HI, thanks for a great plug in. Have it working fine in the header of my site now.

One thing for a possible future release. When you first go to the site, you briefly see all the images load as the content slider builds. Is there anyway to get it to do this in the background so the user doesn’t see all the images at once?

All the best,
Matt

I feel like a webdesign rookie but I can not get this thing to work on my page. I have activated it and pasted the code to the right location but al I can se on the final page is the pictures I want sliding verticly stacked, one image first and the other one under the first. Whats up with that?

I’m having a problem using your plugin but I like it so much please help. I have a CSS dropdown menu but in Exploder the menu and slideshow do not like each other. The Slideshow always renders in front of the drop down menu. Any advice you can give would very much appreciated.

Well I tried using z-index to solve it. It still will not render properly within Internet Exploder though 🙁 What is the solution you would recommend?

  Try this Add following code inside your themes style.css file at the end of file…
```
#acess
{
 position:relative !important;
z-index:9999 !important;
}
#wp_content_slider
{
position:relative !important;
z-index:1000 !important;
}
```

Great Plugin, thanks.
i am wondering if it possible to change the styling of the prev and next arrows?

Reply

  Previous next arrows are created using CSS. if you want to change the style of the .prev .next and you know about CSS then these are the css classes to change
```
#wpcontent_slider_container .cs-prev,#wpcontent_slider_container .cs-next {padding: 0px 10px;-moz-border-radius: 5px;-khtml-border-radius: 5px;-webkit-border-radius: 5px;}
```
  add this code inside your style.css. because if you upgrade this plugin in future then all your work will be deleted with next version PHP files.
  don’t forgot to add !important at the end of each css property so it will be used. like
```
#wpcontent_slider_container .cs-prev,#wpcontent_slider_container .cs-next {
padding: 0px 10px !important;
-moz-border-radius: 5px !important;
-khtml-border-radius: 5px !important;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px !important;
}
```

  Thanks for your reply. Yes, indeed I have two images. when you say “Featured Thumbnail” is the same as Set miniature? I’m a little confused.
