Hello,

Your shortcode looks correct.
remember, the only required parameter in there is the ids, the rest can be left out if they are the same as your global settings.
And in fact with just the shortcode [slideshow] your show will work, if the images to show are attached to that post.

If the thumbnails are vertical along the left then that could be the style of the theme you’ve chosen. That is also how they appear when the css is missing. It does sound like the css file is returning a 404.
Did you change the file storage?
and if you did, did you move the plugin-data folder to the correct location (this is not done automatically).

Do you have a live site which I could review for errors?
Let me know if the issue is the css.
HTH
ps. version 3.0 of superslider-show will be out be soon.

find the #loginpanel h2 rule and add the color:#f5f5f5 to that rule, then your h2 headers inside the login panel will be white.

#loginpanel h2 {
    color: #F5F5F5;
    margin: 0;
}

as for the close tan arrow, add this line:
position: inherit;

.login li a.close {
    float: none !important;
    opacity: 1 !important;
    position: inherit;
}

You seem to have the plugin deactivated at the above noted site.
If adding the css code hasn’t fixed the alignment issue, try this instead:

.login li a.close {
opacity: 1 !important;
float:none !important;
}

yep, adding apostrophes to text can be an issue. try “we are”, easiest solution.
to make the text white, add this to your plugin css, look for the rule:
#loginpanel
and add this:
color: white;
thus should work, but untill you have the plugin active I can’t check your situation. Site themes effect how to answer this question.

well then add the css code to the superslider-login css file which will be in the folder plugins/superslider-login/plugin-data/superslider/ssLogin/( your theme)/theme.css

when adding php to a php file you need to pay attention to the php opening and closing tags.
try re-entering the code with the opening and closing php tags,
these are : <?php ?>
place the php code before the

HTH.

RE: “the logout button is the only one visible while the close button is hanging off the slider tab”
You’ll want to add some css to over ride the jigoshop style
which is effecting your close tab.
add this to your theme style file:
.login li a.close {
opacity: 1;
float:none;
}

I was also hoping to be able to remove the “dashboard” link from the slider when a customer is logged in rather than an admin if that is possible.

Sure, you’ll have to edit the file: login_panel.php
line 130 add this before the a tag:
<?php if ( current_user_can('activate_plugins') ) : ?>
and add this after the a tag line:
<?php endif ?>
This will remove the button to open the slidein panel. If that’s what you want.

Would it be possible for me to add a short amount of shortcode from another plugin that displays a customers account balance?

I believe that you can add the following probably on line #24 of the file logon_panel.php,
<?php do_shortcode([your shortcode]); ?>

Hello suchfin
I’ve just noticed this bug, and have fixed it.
Please update to version 3.2 of the superslider-login plugin.

Hi,
Ram consumption would be read from actual on the fly usage.
When you activate a plugin the WP system ram footprint increase.

If the plugin is a widget to show a thumbnail for example, and it uses 12 mega of ram on activation, there’s a problem.

Since there is a move to filter out low performing plugins from the repository, I put the above forward as a possible path to achieve that end.

As for your clients, well, if they are freely installing and activating any plugin they like, then more info would be helpful to them.

As for the decisions one makes regarding the usage of plugin x or y, well that is based on what you want to happen. For example, I have removed and stopped using plugins due to bad coding and higher than needed ram consumption. In most projects I’ve been involved with, most of the plugins are “wants” rather than “needs”.

My above suggestion is based on what I think may help to make an informed decision between plugin x and y, or if a custom solution will be needed.

Presentation of the featured image is done by your theme.
there are lots of lightbox plugins, find one install it, then you may need to add rel=”lightbox” to the html code in your theme.

A straight simple answer is tough since there are so many variables here, especially related to your theme.

I can see how that must be frustrating.
So what you would want is to be able to see the image title under the image to assist with identifying the image..?
so, when you select an image the Attachment Details are presented to you on the right panel.

If you really need it now, you can go into the file:
wp-includes/media-template.php
line: 130

where there is this code:

<div class="thumbnail">
<div class="centered">
<img src="{{ data.size.url }}" draggable="false" />
</div>
</div>

and replace it with this code:

<div class="thumbnail">
<div class="centered">
<img src="{{ data.size.url }}" draggable="false" />
</div>
<div class="filename">
<div>{{ data.filename }}</div>
</div>
</div>

where data.filename can be switched out for data.title or data.caption for example.

This is a system core file edit which will not be maintained upon updating the core system.

With the insert gallery tab in the media editor you can drag and drop your images into the order that you want them to appear. Be sure not to select the random order option, because then they will be presented in a random order.

Hi cocopops67,
no worries, always happy to help.

let me know if you have any issues with this plugin.
I do offer free trouble shooting, and have resolved numerous
conflict issues. as I mentioned, I am just finishing up version 3 which is much easier to use, better documentation and if you have a look at the demos, many new ones with their specific complete shortcode which you can copy and use in your own project.

I do get the frustration, there are so many plugins and it is difficult to gauge their true usefulness.

Here are some instructions which may be helpful for you.
Let me know if this makes more sense to you.

• * Create a new post, use the WordPress built in media uploader, (upload some images).
• * Click on insert gallery from the media uploader popover panel.
• * you should now have the shortcode [gallery ids="12,13,14"] in your post.
• * change the shortcode tag from gallery to slideshow [slideshow ids=”12,13,14″]
• * Publish your new post / page

• * Create a new post, use the superslider-show metabox (found down below your content text field),
• * select the options which you want to over ride or define specifically for this slideshow.
• * Click on add slideshow in the superslider-show metabox.
• * you should now have the shortcode [slideshow ] in your post or page,
• * the options which you have selected will also be in the shortcode eg: [slideshow width=”500″ height=”200″]
• * Publish your new post or page

Hello cocopops67
yes I understand that usage of this plugin can seem complicated.
I am working on a new version #3 which hopefully will be much easier to use.
for id you use post ids.
eg: [slideshow id=”1204,1205,1206″]
This will pull images attached to those posts
for ids you use image ids.
eg: [slideshow ids=”14,15,16″]
This will pull those images into your slideshow.
if you upload images on this post, they are attached.
You don’t need to do anything more than add [slideshow ]

The meta box on the post screen gives you the chance to over ride any and all of the preset options. You don’t need to over ride anything.
This allows for the creation of different slideshow styles on each post or page.

Yep, it’s a lot of free work to maintain this and 10 other plugins which I offer to the community.
The superslider-show plugin was designed for power users.
I am presently making it easier to use for novice level users.

As for where do you find the id numbers of posts or images,
Well you can look at the edit post link which would be something like this:
post.php?post=2095&action=edit
the id number here is 2095

Oh, and don’t worry, I won’t mind at all if you use another plugin.

HTH.
