I concur, and the layout button worked like a charm, and thanks again, it truly is a great plugin.

Thanks so much @kbat82.

There is no editing hover option for either the actual slideshow nor the “new slideshow” title.

I have a working slideshow on my existing site where I can put an image of any size which becomes proportionately constrained by CSS. There’s no need to add padding in a customized slide for the narrower images. My current site is not a responsive site, too old, cumbersome and the CMS capability is so-so, which is why I am trying WP.

I went through all the padding and crop options, perhaps in my unique case this, great and excellent plugin, may not be the one for me.

Just removed all the custom CSS tags

Thanks, that did allow the fade in but the jerkiness is still there, possibly a tad worse. I think this may be mucking around with the CSS too much, if I have enough time I will remove any CSS customization

I just tried that and there’s no change, BTW, when I create a new slideshow I can’t name it, they all say “new slideshow.” My original post didn’t mention that I wanted the image full image width, so one slide may be 500px wide and the next be 800px by example, whereas the height will be constant, proportional.

Oops, just saw this post, thanks, I added it and lost the fade for the entire slides, note that there is a flash which occurs with a third refresh.

Thanks kbadtdorf,

Since the posting, I spent way too much time looking for CSS tags and the result is still far from my needs. Check out my active site to compare. The slideshow is written in jscript, the entire site is built from scratch years ago, but the functionality is outdated. It would take too much time to integrate into WP.

Note the rough intro glitch which is presumably from too much with CSS. Ideally they settings options should work which they don’t so it would be nice to know the tags have the most specificity to make it easier to style.

I am not at the point of cross-browser checks.

Hi Norris,

I totally understand and appreciate your response. Theming is not an issue for me although I am more familiar with Drupal, this was a long time ago.

My only issue is how to make a page with smaller thumbnails, a wall in a grid, say 8 x 8 thumbnails. I just need to know where to look, jQuery, CSS, plugin or a theme function.

About the gray title, art is not a commercial venue so that needs to be backgrounded to only have the art. But I will make it darker as per your suggestion.

In any case, I wish you well with all your work,

Joe

OK, found the directory, it’s not the uploads directory, however, it’s in the root of wp-content, so permissions need to be set for that as well, at least until [gallery] can be created

public_html/wp-content/gallery/

permissions which worked:
drwxrwxr-x apache:apache (apache in my case) 755

I too am having a problem uploading getting a “could not write to file check your permission etc…”

Other plugins have not had an issue so I would like to know where nextgen creates its directories.

The uploads folder is:

drwxrwxr-x apache:apache – this should suffice

try – chown apache:apache [the directory]

or whatever your OS designates as the server owner. Don’t increase the permissions beyond the 755 or whatever level security you are set for.

add a recursive -R if it has stuff from other uploads

By page you mean WodPress page? I presumed it’s somehow inserted into the table somewhere?

I just noticed this, is this where I should start with?

Thank you Tobias,

First I made a mistake saying I want to enter the age in the date column, it is merely its own age column.

for the Grouped by age 18-24 and others, it sounds like a couple of limits between
>18 <24 and wonder if there is some sample close to what I’m looking for?

The Male Female is an either or which I think should be easier but would appreciate some sample close enough for me to work with.

Sadly my experience with Javascript is not so robust, a little better with PHP if you think that’s a way to go.

Finally, the crude way is to create separate tables, one for each age group and sex but that’s really much less desirable.
