• Hi Guys,

    Odd question from a newb.

    I am using the free ‘folder’ theme, it’s basically a portfolio type theme…and I’ve finally gotten everything working the way it should all by my lonesome, but a couple things are really bugging me and I could use some guidance/understanding in resolving them…

    1) This is the oddest one. Here goes:
    When I was first uploading images to my media library, I would:
    1 load the images
    2 make a ‘work’ page, click load image and choose an image from the
    library, and then test.
    (something was happening to several of the pages here that I didn’t
    notice til later…)

    3 I finished all the uploads and page creations and started testing again,
    and patted myself on the back that everything was…well, no it wasn’t…!
    Here’s what was happening:
    Whatever sample page would load fine, and the image would
    display perfectly, BUT – on some pages, down in the right corner,
    there were two small dots, the first filled orange, the second
    white. If I clicked the second button, it would actually present me
    with the the related header image that was being used for the Lof
    slider on the front/home page. If I just left it for a moment, it
    would also transition by itself to the second image.

    Now, this is very cool, and it’s clearly a feature of SOMETHING
    that I inadvertently enabled. (The only extensions/widgets in the
    theme that I’m aware of is the Lof Slider and FlexSlider…) The
    only way I was able to get rid of it, was to trash the ‘work’ page
    and re-create it.

    BUT I love the feature, and actually want to be able to USE IT on several pages that could really benefit from having some related images presented together in that fashion! I’ve tried everything I can think of to re-create the effect, but no go. All this is
    dynamically generated, soooooo…..

    The work pages only support the adding of one ‘featured’ image

    I decided not to be a complete moron, and before I re-created the pages in
    question, I loaded one of them in chrome, viewed source and copied it and saved
    it in BB Edit.
    Then I loaded that code into Dreamweaver and checked it out and found
    what I believe to be the culprit. I’ll paste it here…:

    [ 345 lines of code moderated, that’s just way too much. For that many lines of code please use pastebin.com instead. ]

    Sorry for double post – first time here – apologies…

    First post was too long apparently, so I’ll try it again:

    <!-- slider -->
    	<div class="project-slider">
    	    <div class="flexslider">
    		  <ul class="slides">
    		    				<li><img src="https://localhost/druPort3/wp-content/themes/folder/php/
    		    				timthumb.php?src=https://localhost/druPort3/wp-content/uploads/2014/
    		    				01/druPort_wre_L_001.jpg&w=940" alt="Image" /></li>
    								<li><img src="https://localhost/druPort3/wp-content/themes/folder/php/
    								timthumb.php?src=https://localhost/druPort3/wp-content/uploads/2014/
    								01/header_005.jpg&w=940" alt="Image" /></li>
    					  </ul>
    		</div>
    	</div>
    	<!-- ENDS slider -->

    When I view this code ‘live’ in DW, it displays the images and
    dots exactly as I saw in WP. When I comment one or the other out, the dots are gone, and only
    one image is displayed. I’ll paste the whole page down below for anyone that may be interested.
    If anyone could walk me out of the forest on this one, I thank you in advance!

    First post was too long apparently, so I’ll try it again:

    It wasn’t too long, you posted 345 lines of code. That was the part that was redacted.

    I’ll paste the whole page down below for anyone that may be interested.

    Could you please use pastebin.com instead and just post the link? You’ll get line numbers if you do. ??

    Large code dumps aren’t really useful here and are hard to read/look at.
