NP. Thank you for making this plugin possible.

NP. Have a good vacation, man.

@alex:
Drop the new script/files in your js directory when you get a chance. They should hook you right up ??

Peace

@alex:
I just double checked the code. You were right. My apologies. I was post-auto incrementating the num variable as it was being passed through the loadImage params. I should have been pre-auto incrementing the num variable instead. So what was happening was the variable was not being incremented properly and was not stopping the preloading of images after three.

The code has been updated and effectively stops after preloading three images now. Thanks for spotting that, Alex ??

The new code is available click to download updated code

@alex:
I have been using the script for over two weeks. My cache has been cleared several times in that period. When I wrote the code I also tested and debugged it using alerts to make sure no images were being preloaded after the third image… I can check again just to make sure though.

@alex:
Pay close attention to lines 56 and 57.

@alex:
My solution does start after the third preloaded image. Read the code/comments beginning from line 37.

@alex (re: I wait for some insight from the community / you):
I resolved the slideshow order, i.e. image resizing, and load complications in the jQuery. The files are available for download in the post above.

@nick:
You’re welcome!

@justshopandgive:
In the js directory of the plugin, try replacing ngg.slideshow.js and ngg.slideshow.min.js with the updated versions I made available for download in the above post (save backup copies of the files first ??

Thanks for replying, Alex!

1.6.2
I have created a solution that has been tested an debugged in ie7/8, ff, and safari. Anyone may download the files from my server if they want (do be sure to download Alex’s changes to json.php and ngg-db.php first).

1.7.2
I haven’t started to debug this version, but from what I am seeing so far the files available for download should fix the issue. I’ll keep everyone posted.

I have also created numerous custom galleries including a nice hybrid gallery that is a blend of smooth gallery, next-gen, next-gen custom fields, and custom jQuery. You can check them out, along with the newly updated slideshows etc., on my latest site mitchcox.com.

Update 2:

1.6.2
I believe I have narrowed it down to this function – jQuery.fn.nggSlideshow – in ngg.slideshow.js, more specifically the bind(load) into the append within the function. It seems that there is an issue with loading and binding. I am working on a solution but, Alex, or anyone, if you’re out there. I would love some insight!

Thanks!

Update:

I’ve been tinkering around with this for a while and it’s definitely a loading issue, but I can’t pinpoint exactly where the issue begins. Any help would be great!

Thanks!
