Some of this might depend on your theme.

Open up header.php and look for the following :

<div class=”Header”>
<div class=”Header-jpeg”></div>

I changed to :
<div class=””></div>

Then I inserted the following code :

<div class="post">
<div class="swfobject" id="so5_1" style="width:998px; height:300px;">
<p>The <a href="https://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Flash Player</a> and <a href="https://www.mozilla.com/firefox/">a browser with Javascript support</a> are needed..</p>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" defer="defer">
var so5_1 = {
params : {
wmode : "opaque",
allowfullscreen : "true"},
flashvars : {
file : "https://yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/xml/imagerotator.php?gid=574",
linkfromdisplay : "false",
shownavigation : "false",
showicons : "false",
rotatetime : "6",
transition : "random",
backcolor : "0x000000",
frontcolor : "0xFFFFFF",
lightcolor : "0xCC0000",
autostart : "false",
width : "998",
height : "300"},
attr : {
styleclass : "slideshow",
name : "so5"},
start : function() {
swfobject.embedSWF("https://yoursite.com/wp-content/uploads/imagerotator.swf", "so5_1", "998", "300", "7.0.0", false, this.flashvars, this.params , this.attr );
}
}
so5_1.start();
</script>
</div>
</div>

The following is important. the ?gid= the gallery id number you want in the header”

Make sure you know the path to your imagerotator.php and imagerotator.swf files.

Your paths may vary, you have to know paths and the gallery id or you won’t get the header slideshow working

file : “https://yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/xml/imagerotator.php?gid=574&#8221;

You can set autostart : “false”, to :
autostart : “true”,

And you header will run the slideshow automatically, otherwise you get a different image on each page. You can also click the image on any page and get the slideshow to start when :

autostart : “false”,

You can see this working on my site :

Good luck.

Oh man I’m not gonna upgrade if there’s ads present. Thanx for the heads up.

@karen,

You’ll see “Gallery Search” above “Gallery in the sidebar of your WordPress Admin page (left side of your screen).

When you click “Gallery Search” the NextGEN Gallery Search page will open.

You’ll see your most recent galleries listed, but most important you’ll find at the top of the page a search field.

Now you can search for a gallery. You can type a partial gallery name (in case you forgot what you called the gallery) and the search should find the gallery.

I have nearly a thousand galleries on my site and this plugin is a life saver when I want to update an older gallery and I forgot the name of the gallery.

The search in the NextGen Gallery plugin only searches for pictures with your search term in the name of the picture. Which doesn’t help when you have twenty thousand plus pictures and you need to edit the gallery

Extremely useful plugin.

Good luck.

Thanx sent an e-mail you can edit out your address now.

How do I send you a private message ?

If you ever find it please post instructions.

I’ve been trying to get the web intents icons to show up for the longest time.

Aaron will tell you to check the FAQ, but no real instructions are available.

Many plugins have a feature that let you edit the CSS from WordPress, this would a nice feature.

Nice plugin, oh well.

OK maybe I’m not explaining my problem correctly.

I would rather not set a size.

Just have the slide show so the image at it’s original size.

So if a image is 800×600 and the next image is 1024×768 they don’t get resized to the pre-deteremined size.

Probably not possible.

I appreciate your help. Thank you.

Seems like there’s other threads about your plugin also asking about styling.

Seems like they can’t get it to work either.

Either way thanx.

@duanemitchell

Nice ! That was need to improve the image browser.

Do you have any idea how to display a slideshow doesn’t rely on a fixed width and height setting ?

Yeah me again =(.

Yes those two links work because their your sites. I checked back when you posted last and you have 32 sites. So I’m sure you can show me 32 examples of sites that successfully show the web intents.

Is there any way you can hard code this in your next release please ?

Seems like you have the follow and avatar built in already, why not the web intents ?

I also wanted to valign “middle” or center the avatar. Found the code but didn’t take my change.

The web intents is more important to me to have working.

Thank you.

@duanemitchell

Wow thank you ! Works perfectly !

Do you know how to fix the slide show ?

Not constrains the file size, just display like your fix ?

Thank you so much, that’s what I needed.

Maybe you should include that in your FAQ ?

Hope you’re well.

So is there a way to change the link colors ?

Thank you so much for the fast reply. Your link helped out great.

I had another question that wasn’t covered in the FAQ.

I don’t CSS, so I Googled hoping to find my answer.

The question is how can change the font link colors ?

.wp-table-reloaded-id-1 td {
a:link { color: #00f; }
a:hover { color: #0f0; }
a:active { color: #f00; }
a:visited { color: #f0f; }
}

I know those colors are ugly, just an example I found. The code yielded no changes. If I remove .wp-table-reloaded-id-1 td {} that code changed my entire website.

Is there code you can provide that will let me adjust the font links ?

Thank you again, I also made a small donation. Have a great weekend.

I too was wondering if there was a way to change the cell color.
