    Hi Erik,

    If you mean to use the slideshow as a background for your website, it’s possible by using a custom stylesheet. You can read how to create one in the FAQ section.

    You’ll need to add the slideshow as close as possible to the start of the ‘<body>‘ element, which is probably in your theme’s ‘header.php’. In the custom stylesheet you should set the ‘.slideshow_container‘ class to look like this:

    .slideshow_container { position: fixed; }

    For now, you’ll have to set the slideshow’s height to a fixed number of pixels to make it show. However, I’m going to add the possibility to set a height of 100% in an upcoming release. At the momnt setting the slideshow’s height to 100% doesn’t work correctly.

    Best regards,
    Stefan

    OK, I’ve been struggling with his all day… everything works fine, except the slideshow ends up on top of all other content. Since not all content has a position element, z-index is no help… other than that, well, yeah, it works, but as a foreground not a background.

    Love the plug in and love your level of support — I just hope there’s an answer for this.

    OK, solved — I just needed to add z-index: -99999; to the css… and now I feel foolish…

    Thanks so much for the great plug in and the superb support!
