Hello again Dalton,

Wow, thanks for upgrading the plugin! It’s surely working fine on your site.

In the previous first version (with preloader) the slideshow was working fine as usual just that there was still no preloader.

So i installed this latest update and i notice that in the settings page there’s an option for “loading animation”. All was working fine as usual (without any preloader) till i ticked that option, and the slideshow just didn’t appear anymore. I’m just thinking could it be some kind of ajax or jquery kind of conflict. I’m using quite a number of .js files and javascripts in my header.php.

Here they are:

—————————–

1. jquery.js
2. smoothscroll.js

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
	$("img.a").hover(
		function() { $(this).animate({"opacity": "0"}, "fast"); },
		function() { $(this).animate({"opacity": "1"}, "fast"); }
	);
});
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{

	//slides the element with class "menu_body" when mouse is over the paragraph
	$("#firstpane p.menu_head").mouseover(function()
    {
	     $(this).css({backgroundImage:"url(down.png)"}).next("div.menu_body").slideDown(500).siblings("div.menu_body").slideUp("slow");
         $(this).siblings().css({backgroundImage:"url(left.png)"});
	});
});
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function(){

	$('#bgg').fadeIn(800);

});

</script>

Being the java noob i am, i’ve no idea which part of it has messing up the functionality of the portfolio slideshow plugin.

Anyhow, thank you once again for your precious time to develop this amazing plugin! Hope we can find the light thru the tunnel..

Peace,

hi dalton,

wow thanks for your precious time! so i deleted the old plugin and replaced it.. somehow it doesn’t seem to be working. same thing happens. i can’t figure out what might be wrong.. couldn’t be a jquery conflict since the old one worked..? hmm…

hi again Dalton, so i tried messing with the css to define a border around the image container but it doesn’t work either. is that because everything only loads once the first image is loaded? i was just thinking.. a quick way to solve it would be to wrap a div around the container and then specify a border.. but couldn’t get it to work either! any quick and simple ideas for a fix?

no problem Mickael and thanks for the solution, Dalton! that would be perfect actually. how do we go about doing that? i’ve tried to delve into the CSS and PHP but haven’t found a way to insert a loading gif or a border. really appreciate your help so much and thanks for replying so fast! this plugin is a lifesaver.
