[...] WordPress Photo Slideshow with NextGen Gallery – very nice Photo Slideshow addon for NextGen gallery in WordPress. It’s JavaScript, used it on a site recently to retain SEO value in image alt text and descriptions rather than lose that value with the NextGen native Flash based slideshow. [...]

Did you manage to resolve this issue? I am having the same issue.

Thanks

I haven’t got this error so far. Could be that the css or Javascript isn’t loading properly. Try to recheck them.

Hej!

Great add-on. However, when I use it, it will not display but instead the page will stretch enormously like all images are invisibily stacked on each other. Do you know what causes this?

Kind regards

No nuance that we’re aware of…

You install WordPress, you install the NextGEN Gallery plugin, you install the GalleryView addon plugin, and that’s that.

In order to output your gallery just add the shortcode to a post or a page.

Have you done all of this?

I love that you found this way of displaying a “Flashless” slideshow. I have tried to add this to a WordPress site without success. Is there a nuance to using WordPress and these scripts? I confess I am not advanced in javascript or even WordPress for that matter.

I appreciate your sharing of this information. Thank you. I hope I can get it to work.

you can resize your slideshow with this command
[slideshow id=3 w=... h=...]

The monster sized right arrow is due to a wordpress theme CSS rule that is meant for another nav image.

Just put in
.galleryview .nav-next {
width:22px !important;
float: none;
}
and it should override the wordpress theme CSS.

I have no idea what the cause for the last issue might be. We haven’t run into this…
