I’m trying to use Blip Slideshow and it’s working for me on IE and on mobile devices. Strangely, it’s not showing up on Firefox or Chrome. Any idea what could be preventing it from showing up? Is there some setting that could be blocking it?
Thanks
I think it’s almost working, but as yet I don’t see anything on my page…
I’ve got a test page:
https://solarschoolhouse.org/test-picasa/
with this tag in it:
[blip-slideshow thumbnails=false rss=”https://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/110441213395616003140/albumid/6054535908894248529″%5D
Screencast showing default settings in WordPress back end:

Also, I’m able to see the slideshow on your site here:
https://www.jasonhendriks.com/programmer/blip-slideshow/
when viewed in Safari, but it’s not showing in Chrome nor FireFox (testing on Mac). Any thoughts?
Thanks for this cool plugin!
]]>I’ll open this one myself.. I am moving my photography website from a Linux virtual host to RedHat’s OpenShift cloud platform and the plugin won’t run.
The PHP log shows

]]>I think Blip has stopped working in WP 3.8.1
See here…

It seems this forum isn’t monitored but I’ll ask anyway.
This plug in inserts the mootools library ahead of jQuery which breaks the theme’s jQuery slider. I can push the mootools links to the footer using with the enqueue parameter but then blip doesn’t work.
I’m aware of the jQuery no conflict option but have no idea how to use it in this case.
Love this plug in but am having one issue. I followed this to change the orientation of the thumbnails:
https://www.electricprism.com/aeron/slideshow/example5.html
Problem is even with no other customization, the thumbs insist on scrolling horizontally in groups, when they advance.
The page I’m playing on is here:
https://michathome.elementfx.com/sample-page/
I cannot get my smugmug gallery to load. I have tried:
[blip-slideshow thumbnails=true width=1030 height=585 random=false resize=fill captions=false rss=feed://api.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=gallery&Data=23966440_5S98fV&f=rss200&Size=Large]
and
[blip-slideshow thumbnails=true width=1030 height=585 random=false resize=fill captions=false
rss=feed://jessyandmelissa.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=gallery&Data=23966440_5S98fV&rss200&Size=Large]
Both resolve in a browser but neither start the slideshow. When I revert back to the smugmug sample that uses the popular feed it works.
Do you know what I’m doing wrong?
]]>Trying to test this plugin on XAMPP localhost test site.
Nothing shows up so I looked for errors and found this:
Warning: require_once(C:\Data\xampplite\htdocs\zinnia\wp\wp-content\plugins\blip-slideshow): failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\Data\xampplite\htdocs\zinnia\wp\wp-content\plugins\blip-slideshow\blip.php on line 762
Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘C:\Data\xampplite\htdocs\zinnia\wp\wp-content\plugins\blip-slideshow’ (include_path=’.;C:\Program Files (x86)\xampplite\php\PEAR’) in C:\Data\xampplite\htdocs\zinnia\wp\wp-content\plugins\blip-slideshow\blip.php on line 762
—————
The code on line 762 is the require_once, but here’s a few lines before
// attempt to talk to WordPress
$blog_header_path = preg_replace("/wp-content\/.*/", "wp-blog-header.php", getcwd());
if (file_exists($blog_header_path)) {
require_once($blog_header_path);
}How is that supposed to work, to require a directory and not a file?
Just for completeness, this test site has WordPress in a subfolder, but it controls the main folder.
this plugin is not working for individual albums / sets in picasa and flickr.
]]>Hi
I like your plugin, as I need to be able to show images from different services. I’ve managed to show picasa and flicr galleries, but my SmugMug gallery isn’t showing. I use the following shortcode
blip-slideshow link=none thumbnails=false rss=https://baldur-halla-born.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=gallery&Data=23192506_TdrsLm&format=rss200
I also tried a shortcode from an example on your site (https://www.jasonhendriks.com) which works fine.
My SmugMug account is set up to allow RSS.
What could be wrong?
]]>I’m using blip slideshow v. 1.2.6. Until I migrated my WordPress install to a GoDaddy host, I hadn’t been aware there would be a problem; and there now definitely is. The slideshow won’t show at all, but works perfectly on my demo server (which isn’t on my live host, but has the same themes, plugins, and settings). The WordPress config reflects correct directories, and has extremely minimal installed themes or plugins. I would love to have this working, as it’s a great plugin. Thanks.
]]>This is a great widget and it was working perfectly until I changed my url to an addon domain.
I used the plugin Short Codes in Sidebar Widgets to enable the Blip Slideshow shortcode to work in a text widget. The widget worked fine initially while I was building the site at the domain https://www.esaner.com/sanerthanyou. Then I changed to using the domain https://www.sanerthanyou as an addon domain pointing to https://www.esaner.com/sanerthanyou. Additionally, the wordpress install is in the sub folder https://www.esaner.com/sanerthanyou/wp/ so the path to Blip Slideshow is https://www.esaner.com/sanerthanyou/wp/wp-content/plugins/blip-slideshow/.
Any ideas on how to get it working again? The slideshow should appear between the welcome paragraph and the upcoming events list at https://www.sanerthanyou.com.
I can see with firebug that the following code is still being called.

Liking this plug-in, but wish it could read from 500px feeds in addition to Flickr and SmugMug. Any hope for a new version?
]]>I feel like i’ve done everything mentioned in Installation but the blip slideshow won’t show up on my page. I have WordPress 3.1.3 (latest) and PHP5, I installed it through FTP and then activated it. I put the code on my page (https://www.ifgfdallas.com/?page_id=192) but the slideshow just won’t show up.
Here is my code:
[blip-slideshow thumbnails=true captions=false loop=true rss=https://feed213.photobucket.com/albums/cc134/ifgfdallas/2007%20Christmas%20Dinner/feed.rss]
Any clues?
]]>I got the blip slideshow to work on Bluehost, but not Godaddy. In each case, I used a test slide show — [blip-slideshow link=none thumbnails=false rss=feed://www.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=popular&Data=all&format=rss200&Size=Small] which I inserted in a test post.
Both WordPress websites are using version 3.1.3 of WordPress.
