Hi Ashley,

At the moment, there is no way to tell the slide show not to resize the images. What you can do is make them all the same size yourself (using an appropriate tool, like GIMP).
It is a good idea for the new version, though, and it doesn’t seem too difficult to implement, so chances are it’ll be included in version 1.3, which is being developped right now.

Hi Guys

Using the WordPress plugin. My images (client logos) are different sizes but it seems I have to set the height and width of the images in the widget setting, which distorts some of the logos which do not fit those measurements. How do I overcome that please?

Re my above issue. It is now solved.

It was caused by my theme, Thesis, and my use of Open Hook. This was installing an extra widget in the PHP. If you use this combination and want this widget installed in the multimedia box, then untick the option ‘Execute PHP on this hook’

Thanks to Paul from http://cheviotmarketing.com for sorting this for me.

Wonderfully simple looking plugin and just what I’ve been searching for.

I installed it without a hitch, except…

I’ve got TWO slideshows of the same images even though I’ve only one instance of the widget installed. See here:

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi cliff, thanks for your interest in the slideshow. I hope it’s what you were looking for. Sorry for the trouble you had finding the documentation. The link to it is right here, in this post. Are the links in the text really that hard to see? So far I had no other complaints.
Adding the documentation as another readme file to the wordpress widget package is a good idea. I’ll do that right away.

Okay, after much time and digging, I finally found the documentation page:

http://www.creativeclans.nl/2009/01/creative-clans-slide-show-v12-user-guide/

Might be easier to just include this as a second Readme with the download AND make it easier to find on the site; not a dark blue non-decorated link in dark text buried in the middle of the page.

What are the “28 transition types” and how are they activated?

For instance, I simply want a fade effect for each slide. I typed in the obvious “fade” in the Effects field and it did not work. It just cuts immediately to the next slide without a transition.

Seems like we might need some documentation for both what the transitions are and how to actually use them.
