I would also really like to see the current category / post enabled for this plugin, together with custom classes per category & post.

This may not be the most elegant way of doing it, but the following tweak enables each list item to have a unique class:

Line 142 in jquery-catagories-list.php

Change

$html .= '<li class="jcl_category"';

to

$html .= '<li class="'.$category->cat_name.' jcl_category"';

Likewise to add classes to parent category <ul> tags:

Line 155 in jquery-catagories-list.php

Change

$html .= '<ul>'.$child_html.'</ul>';

to

$html .= '<ul class="'.$category->cat_name.'">'.$child_html.'</ul>';

After a day spent trying to work out how to do the same I can report that this is very difficult, and perhaps best not even attempted.

There are several ways to get it working, but they each have major drawbacks and I would seriously hesitate recommending them —?I would instead recommend either forgetting about it or else manually creating rounded images for the slideshow yourself.

The carousel functionality definitely is built into NextGen, at least as of v1.4.3, which is the current version and only one I have tested it in, and it works exactly (and as easily) as described here: https://nextgen-gallery.com/templates/carousel/

By the way, many thanks to Alex Rabe for his excellent plug-in(s), and for even attempting to provide free support in forums such as these!

eggnog, I’ve found that to get a reasonable result you have to give the plugin high quality jpegs to work with, for example 90%-100% compression only in Photoshop save to web, and then set the compression level of the plugin to 90%.

Alternatively you can use pngs, which it seems to work much better with, but you have to use PNG-8s, as it doesn’t seem to support the transparency of PNG-24.

Thanks jcow, your plugin works exactly as advertised, and was a pleasure to use. Was also very happy to find you are using one of the newest builds of sIFR v3.

I should mention I have also tried every solution so far offered in this post, but to no avail (changing secret key, changing password in phpMyAdmin, adding cookie redirect line to wp-config.php).

I also have the same problem:

• Upgrade process (from 2.5.1 to 2.6): as per normal disabled plugins, updated wp-config and index.php files, ran upgrade.php fine but can now no longer login, get redirected from wp-admin to wp-login.php, which displays a 404 page
• deleted cookies and attempted from multiple browsers
• deleted and uploaded files multiple times, re-uploaded wp-admin and wp-includes folders multiple times
• checked permissions on wp-admin
• my blog is in the following format: https://myblog/blog/

Right, does anyone actually read these support forums? There is a known error, and here is one solution for it.

I myself fixed it an even harder way—exporting my WordPress database and then using a text editor to find and replace all the garbled punctuation.

For what it’s worth I think I’ve narrowed down the cause of the problem, and it probably isn’t WordPress in my case—importing the MySQL database, as I switched hosts at the same time as upgrading, and text encoding are probably to blame.

As for the dashboard, cleaning the font caches on my mac has solved that.

I do however know another WP blogger who experienced the same issue during a Fantastico control panel upgrade to 2.2.

Same situation here—just upgraded to 2.2 as well: website

I use the default Kubrick theme with some very minor mods in a seperate css file—nothing that would cause this sort of problem.

Lucida Grande is looking bad in the dashboard as well.
