Flash slideshow WordPress widget version 1.3.4 released

admin — Thu, 13 May 2010 14:39:46 +0000

This version is a bugfix. Thanks to the alert of one of you (thank you very much), I was able to discover a problem with the ‘Load all images from folder’, ‘Enable proxy for cross-domain access’ and ‘Dynamic XML creation’ options. A bug that entered version 1.3.3 without being noticed.

I apologize for any inconvenience caused.…

Flash slideshow WordPress widget version 1.3.2 released

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 14:31:35 +0000

This new version of the free flash slideshow wordpress widget is again the result of the feedback of one of you. So don’t hesitate and post your praise, questions, comments and critics. It all helps to make a better product!

So, what’s new? Version 1.3.2 fixes a bug concerning the transparent background. In the widget’s HTML code, the object wmode parameter was set as ‘opaque’, resulting in a white background, even if the background transparency of the slideshow was set to 0 (transparent).

In the new version, wmode is set to ‘transparent’, which means that all objects laying underneath the flash object (like the site’s background color) will shine through the transparent parts of the slide show. So now, if you specify the background transparency as 0, it’ll work as it should.

Attention: the wmode was set to ‘opaque’ for a reason: it prevented the flash object from being shown on top of everything, thus obscuring drop down menus (this is a flash behaviour, not something specific for the slideshow). I think ‘transparent’ will work just fine, but I haven’t had the possibility to test it. If you notice a problem, please let me know. In that case, I’ll have to add a new setting to let you choose between wmode ‘opaque’ and ‘transparent’.…

Flash slideshow WordPress widget version 1.3.1 released

admin — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 08:54:11 +0000

So, what’s new? Version 1.3.1 fixes a bug concerning the widget title. Version 1.3 always displayed the title, even if none had been set. In some WordPress templates, this caused an empty coloured box to appear above the slideshow (in other templates it might have other effects). In version 1.3.1, the title (and all related graphical effects) is displayed only when you set one.…

Problem with do-it-yourself slide show package resolved

admin — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:04:17 +0000

Someone has informed me that the flash object included in the do-it-yourself version of the slide show didn’t allow him to load images through a proxy. First of all, I want to thank him for informing me, because he has given me the possibility to correct things.

I don’t know why, but something must have gone wrong. I’ve already uploaded a new package, with a working flash object.

So if you couldn’t get the proxy to work, please download the do-it-yourself slide show package again.

I apologise for the inconvenience. This version’s release has been far from perfect. I’ll try to do better next time.…

Problem with automatic wordpress upgrade resolved

admin — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 15:30:02 +0000

I’m sorry if you tried to use the automatic upgrade to install the new version of the WordPress widget, and you got a critical error. When I uploaded the new version to the WordPress plugins site, I completely missed the fact that only those files that already existed where updated. The new ones weren’t, so they were missing at the moment of installation.

I corrected that error, and now the automatic install and upgrade from the WordPress plugins repository is working.

I apologise for any inconvenience. And please keep posting your problems and questions in the support forum.…

Bugfix flash slideshow joomla module

admin — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 14:32:43 +0000

Working on the new flash slideshow WordPress widget, a bug in the joomla module has been discovered. In version 1.1.1, this bug (caption style ‘none’ still showed a caption) has been fixed. Please download the latest version of the free flash slideshow Joomla module if you want to make slideshows without captions.…

Bugfix Joomla module slide show

admin — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 09:47:37 +0000

This bugfix only contains two minor adjustments to the module’s admin interface:

1. The four parameters that must be inserted have been placed to the top of the interface, instead of in the middle and at the end. Much more logical, of course.

2. The label of the ‘number of slides’ parameter erroneously said ‘wait’. Now it says ‘number of slides’.

So there is no reason to update to this version if you’re happy with the previous one.…
