[Plugin: Meteor Slides] Navigation buttons not working

    Hi JLeuze! I have been getting great/easy/beautiful results with Meteor Slides in WordPress.

    However, I am having a problem with the navigation buttons not responding when I try to specify the name of a certain slideshow. I am using multiple slideshows throughout this site: dev.iandccraftsmanship.com.

    I am using this code to pull in a slideshow to the home page template:
    <?php if ( function_exists( ‘meteor_slideshow’ ) ) { meteor_slideshow(‘Custom Cabinets Orange County’); } ?>

    On a few of the internal pages, I am using shortcode in the page to pull in particular slideshows. My shortcode looks like this:
    [meteor_slideshow slideshow=”Custom Bathroom Cabinets Orange County” metadata=”height: 400, width: 600″]

    When I remove the slideshow name from the code, the navigation buttons work, but every uploaded slide displays.

    I couldn’t find any answer in other forum topics, though I suspect the theme I’m using might be conflicting.

    Thanks for the great plugin and any help you are able to provide!

    Try changing your shortcode to:
    [meteor_slideshow slideshow=”custom-bathroom-cabinets-orange-county” metadata=”height: 400, width: 600″]

    (assuming your slideshow’s slug is “custom-bathroom-cabinets-orange-county”)

    I came up against something similar on this page https://cubecolour.co.uk/2011/wordcamp-portsmouth-uk-2011/

    I was using a slideshow named “WordCampUK 2011”

    I put the slideshow name into the shortcode
    [meteor_slideshow slideshow=”WordCampUK 2011″] and it displayed the slideshow but without the navigation (this is my only slideshow so far, so no extra slides from other slideshows were shown)

    It turns out it was my error as the slideshow parameter should be the slideshow’s slug – this is documented on Josh’s Meteor Slides site.

    Using the shortcode correctly with the slug: [meteor_slideshow slideshow=”wordcampuk-2011″] displays my slideshow with the navigation and I’m happy! Easy mistake to make.

    Props to Josh for the plugin!

    Holy Cow… You nailed it!!! Using the slug works great for fixing the nav buttons in my slideshows! Thanks cubecolor!

    You’re welcome! I’ll probably forget to use the slug the next time I add a slideshow – If so, hopefully I’ll find this thread when I do a search on the forum ??
