Fixed! I made a small change around line 4057 on wp-carousel.php:
$return['desc'] = $post_temp->post_content;
to read instead:
$return['desc'] = $post_temp->post_excerpt;
Thanks again for a great plugin!

It’s weird: When I look at the SQL database, the Page Excerpt plugin puts a Page’s excerpt in the same data column as with all the Posts’ excerpts. So Carousel ought to have no trouble pulling the data from the same place, right?

Just figured out my own problem: leave the image height blank in the Carousel settings, and in theme.php, change:

if (!$config['HAS_IMG_HEIGHT'])
	{
		$config['IMG_HEIGHT'] = '100px';

to

if (!$config['HAS_IMG_HEIGHT'])
	{
		$config['IMG_HEIGHT'] = '';'

Voila!

thank you for the fix. it worked for me!

Ok, I’ve pinpointed a cause, but have no idea how to fix it: if I have four or more images in a gallery, the slideshow works fine. But if I have only two or three images in the same gallery, it doesn’t work at all. A short term fix is to simply duplicate as many photos as I need to have four images. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening, or how to fix it permanently?

I’m not using the imagerotator.swf for my slideshows. (I disabled it because it displays the JW logo on every slide, and for iPhone/iPad compatibility.) Most of my galleries will display slideshows just fine. Just a few that don’t, and it seems to be arbitrary.

This is becoming a common problem. See also this thread. Try other gallery ID’s, to see if you can get any to load at all.

(running WP 3.0.5 and NGG 1.7.4 )

Is it a jquery problem? Why only certain galleries?

I’m experiencing this too, but only for certain galleries. For some it works fine, others never play at all. I’m not using the Flash imagerotator at all. I just get the endlessly rotating icon, too. Something is not right…

Make sure the #content img {} in your theme’s style sheet isn’t set to max-width:640px. Something like that caught me up.

nevermind – i found this.

Also seeing this problem with WP 3.0.5, WPCarousel 0.5.3, in addition to other problems mentioned in other threads about this plugin.

It used to work just fine. Weird…

DaVinciCook,
I’ve just submitted my version of the plugin to WordPress for inclusion in the plugin directory. When it gets approved, I’ll repost here, so you know that you can download it and try it out. You’ll see that you can simply check off “Display Excerpt” in the Settings panel.

Full disclosure: Mark Inderhees gets 99% of the credit here for this great plugin; I just made a slight mod for my purposes.

I am encountering this same problem on WP 3.0.5. The carousel does not scroll, and worse, it does not appear to be taking the options set in the admin panel (turning off pagination or arrows, etc.). I’ve tried changing carousel content to different types, changing themes, and changing what browser I use to administer the system. Nothing will make it work.

I have this same version of the plugin running on earlier versions of WP, and they work like a charm. Sumolari, please help!
