Xyth

After I upgraded to 1.6.2 the slideshow widget stopped displaying anything besides the Title assigned. No pictures are displayed. Worked fine before upgrading.

Thanks Moshu, I think that will work out very nicely.

That is my backup plan, but since there are a substantial number of pictures, I was hoping for a less labor intensive method. Thanks for the suggestion!

Under your options/permalinks tab, set your structure to

/%postname%/

That seems to work for me. Make sure you set your htaccess file to writable (666) before making this change.

I’m thinking the “moreinfo” script found at https://www.thisisennis.com/scripts.php is being used:

The WordPress XSPF player is one of the best ways to play MP3s within wordpress. https://www.boriel.com/?page_id=12

It is XHTML compliant and easy to configure.

Looks fine in both Firefox and IE 6.0 to me.

Don’t think so, but look here for what you can do. https://www.w3schools.com/media/media_playerref.asp

The authors site says if you run both plugins, Static-front wins. I never used the opt-in code, so I can only try help you there. I use the static-front only, as I don’t want my front page to change often. Maybe if I had something in my blog worth reading i’d post it on the front page, but…

With the static front page, you only need a home.php in your templates directory IF you want a “custom styled” homepage. If the wordpress default style is ok, you dont need to make one.

Look on my site, and you will see that the rampart theme uses a custom home.php, but the default and Zen do not, so they have default styling.

So, I suggest you put the whole home.php out of your mind for a few until you get your homepage working kinda like you want then use a home.php to style it. Try this:

1. Load the opt-in plug in into your plugins directory
2. enter the WP admin screens and create a new category called ‘Blog’
3. Activate the plugin
4. Rename the category if you want, but the “slug” MUST remain named ‘blog’.
5. create a post under this new category, opt it in, and see how it looks

See the authors site for more details, hope that helps.

Try autostart=0

I suggest you set a minimum width to your body section so it does not get overrun as you move the sidebar all the way left.

Correct, the line should read like:

$gallery_address = ‘/photo/’;

This works for me in that my photo directory is in the root as is my wordpress files and lazy-index.

Ok, sorry, I’m tired. The configuation section is in the lazy-gallery.php file found in your plugin directory. The section to change looks like this:

// ———- Settings ———-
// Configure these settings, to use the gallery.

// Your gallery folder (this is where your pictures and picture folders are located).
$gallery_address = ‘/albums/’;

// Sidebar position
$gallery_sidebar = ‘right’; // left or right

// Add foldernames to exclude. (add more lines like this on more excludes.)
$excluded_folders[] = ‘cgi-bin’;

// Picture size
$pictwidth = 400;
$pictheight = 400;

// Thumbnail size
$thumbwidth = 110;
$thumbheight = 110;

// Thumbnail caching, will decrease server-load
// the created image will be stored in a subdirectory (eg. /wp/wp-gallery/holiday/thumbs )
$enable_cache = TRUE;
$thumb_folder = “thumbs/”;

Your gallery path might be wrong. The one above is for a directory called albums directly under the root.

Without seeing the code inside your lazy-index.php its hard to say. You sure you have correctly pathed to the photos directory in that file? Did you specify the correct side of your sidebar in that file (it appears to be overwritten by the gallery)?
