Your idea is pretty good. I agree setting each slideshow’s settings one by one is a tiresome process. You’re also right that this could be quite a lot of work.

I’ve actually been working a similar idea to improve the slideshow edit page a couple of months ago. I’m hoping to put this idea into practice at the end of this year, or at least a part of it. I’ll take your suggestions into consideration.

I’m sorry, I think I’m a little late in looking at your website as there doesn’t seem to be a slideshow on the linked page (anymore).

Where exactly do you add this extra div layer and which unwanted base margins does it prevent?

Using the arrow keys to navigate through the slides in the slideshow is not yet possible out of the box. However, if you have some JavaScript knowledge, you should be able to make it work using the slideshow’s API as described in this thread. Note that the “slideshowInstance” reference as described in the aforementioned thread also offers “next()” and “previous()” methods for navigating through the slides.

I haven’t been able to reproduce the problem you’re having with the slideshow on your website. Does the problem persist? And if so, in what browser are you having these issues?

Thank you very much for your information, Robin. These issues will be resolved in version 2.3.2, which will be released some time next week (as described here).

My apologies for my slow response. The option for setting the stylesheet’s location contains a bug that causes the stylesheet to be placed on the website twice.This bug will be resolved in version 2.3.2, which will be released some time next week.

It will also resolve the HTML5 validation issue when the stylesheets are loaded at the bottom of the page, as suggested by Robin. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you very much for reporting this issue. The issue will be resolved in version 2.3.2, which will be released some time next week.

Everything is fine. You just need to set the number of slides per view to a lower number, 1 for example. At the moment all your slides are showing at the same time, that’s why the slideshow doesn’t (have to) move.

Hi Lullavie,

I’m sorry, there’s no out-of-the-box option that enables the slideshow to be presented in full screen. However, you or your theme developer(s) should be able to find out how to implement it.

Best regards,
Stefan

I’m sorry to hear about this compatibility issue.

The most recent slideshow update hasn’t changed the way images are loaded. Have you contacted the Photon support forum to check if they can solve the compatibility issue?

Please have a look at this forum thread, it describes how to customize the styling and position of the buttons.

Please have a look at this forum thread to find out how to center the slideshow.

You’re very welcome. Perhaps you could contact your theme’s developers to see if they know how to remove the theme name from the theme.

I see, thanks for trying it anyways. I’ll look into the slideshow’s code to see if I can make the slideshows work on your website.

Thank you.

It looks like your website uses a late loading technique to load content onto the page when a URL, like the one in the menu, is followed. The slideshow plugin isn’t out of the box compatible with this technique yet, as it can’t late load it’s script.

You may be able to work around it by adding the following lines of code to your theme’s ‘functions.php’ file:

function slideshow_jquery_image_gallery_enqueue_script() {
  wp_enqueue_script(
    'slideshow-jquery-image-gallery-script',
    plugins_url() . '/slideshow-jquery-image-gallery/js/min/all.frontend.min.js',
    array('jquery')
  );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'slideshow_jquery_image_gallery_enqueue_script' );

This should make the slideshow’s script available to the slideshow at all time. However, there’s a good chance that this will not work, as the script may not register the late loaded slideshows.
