[Plugin: Frontpage-Slideshow] Images not loading : Possible fix?

  • Hi,

    My plugin unique ID is: 10220. WordPress 3.0

    I’ve also had problems with images not loading on the static home page of my website when using version 0.9.9.3.3. As suggested in other posts, I downgraded to 0.9.8 but the problem still remained with images not being loaded. Also, as noted by others, the only way to get the slideshow to work was to do a CTRL-F5.

    I made the following changes to “frontpage-slideshow.php” and these seem to have fixed the problem:

    Line 81: Commented out the code to add the fsDoSlide() function
    //if ($id == $fslast) $fscontent .= ‘ onload=”fsDoSlide()”‘; // put this to make another loop after the last image

    Line 222: Added the following code after frontpageSlideshow() function.

    jQuery(document).ready(function () {
    fsDoSlide();
    });

    I think I had a conflict with another widget that was also using jQuery, but the above code changes seem to work without having to deactivate or change any other plugin.

    I have not tested the code change in version 0.9.8

    ok thank you for your report

    This fix worked for me too. Jquery conflicts are more and more common as various plugins from different sources are installed. I had similar things happen on Joomla sites too. Not a plugin problem, just the nature of the beast.
    I like this plug in, it is what I need. Thanks!

    It’s caudes by 2 things :
    – plugins developpers that do not use the wordpress API tu include javascript libs
    – the fact that in WP < 3, and WP >= 3 the jquery version is not the same…

    When you got such problems : plase complain to the others plugins developpers so that they can do what is needed to normalize the situation

    OK, I have ver 0.9.9.3.3 and I am NOT seeing the code at Line 81 in frontpage-slideshow.php that kally14 mentioned… what’s up?

    its on the /wp-content/plugins/frontpage-slideshow/templates/default/template.php file

    jeff, i have v. 0.9.9.3.4

    line 81 is now: jQuery(“#fs-entry-“+fsid).removeClass(“fs-current”);

    line 222 is now: height: 100%; <– this is in the #fs-prev, #fs-next block of code

    it seems the changes kally14 suggest will not work for me and 0.9.9.3.3 is not available to downgrade to.

    I still have the problem: on the first time loading the static homepage it does not load. if I refresh it starts working. if I navigate to any other page and then go back to the homepage, it again stops loading. or more accurately, the loading graphic continues to spin and spin and spin.

    unique ID 11267
    tried v. 0.9.8 and v. 0.8 & tried deactivating all other plugins, still no go.

    I had 0.9.9.3.4 installed and had exactly the same problem. Slideshow would appear on the page and show my blog titles, however assigned images wouldn’t show. I’ve tried the suggestions in this post, however I still couldn’t get the slideshow to work.

    Downgrading Manually to 0.9.8 has solved my problems…

    I found the solution. Thanks to Kally14’s help, here’s what ur gonna do in Version 0.9.9.3.4:

    1- open wp-content\plugins\frontpage-slideshow\templates\default\template.php

    2- Go to line 100 and after
    jQuery("#fs-slide").css({width : jQuery("#fs-slide").css('width')});

    add this
    if (fsid == fslast) fscontent = ' onload="fsDoSlide()"';

    3- Go to line 116 and after

    clicked = false;
}

    add this:

    jQuery(document).ready(function () {
fsDoSlide();
});

    Awesome job on fixing this bug farhadhamed! I can confirm it works.

    There is one minor issue: the first slide to be displayed will no longer be the slide that is supposed to be displayed first. E.g. if you have the slideshow display slides from news posts, the slideshow does not start with the picture of the latest news post. Other than that it works great.

    This fix doesn’t seem to work on a test site of mine?

    As soon as I add the above changes farhadhamed posted the whole slideshow breaks and looks like it has no styling / JS is broken ??

    Hi, thanks for the fix provided above. Worked for me with a small change.

    The above fix resulted in a loop of the slides on WP 3.1/FS 0.9.9.3.4.

    I implemented the below fix on a different place:

    jQuery(document).ready(function () {
    fsDoSlide();
    });

    Add after line 114 (“window.clearInterval(fsinterval);”) in version 0.9.9.3.4. This would trigger initial loading a slide, but not override the interval settings that are defined afterwards (IMO).

    Would be nice to see the problem fixed in the next release.

    @thebloghouse you probably implemented after the function closing.

    Grt, Bart

    I have the same problem with version 0.9.9.3.4, wp 3.1.2.
    Are there any news on this?

    @farhadhamed Great fix! Thank you!

    It does work, however now my site is displaying a heap of errors

    This is what it says if people try to log in SO BE CAREFUL!! If you are logged out you might not get back in.

    Plase update to the las (0.9.9.3.5) version and tell me if everything ok.
    This version should fix the bug.
