 * Seems I may have reached a maximum amount of images I can add. I have 105 images.
   I checked the string length of the meta_value in the post_meta table for the 
   slides and it says 32,935 characters.
 * How can I add more images to my slide? Thanks

 * Hi can you check and find out how much memory is allocated to your WordPress 
   website?

 * Hi – I allocated 256MB in the php.ini file. That doesn’t seem to be the issue.
 * * Edit. Found the problem, and I bet some people may be running into this, too.
   I looked at the error log and it was giving me a max_input_vars error of 1000
   being maxed out. I increased this number and was immediately able to add more
   to the same slide show.
 * I’m advising my client to break up the slide shows, but at least now they have
   time to resolve it on their own.
 * Thanks mbrsolution. Your question reminded me to check the damn logs.
 * * 2nd Edit: No error was given in the WordPress UI. It simply told me the “Slideshow
   updated”, which wasn’t true. Just FYI, something maybe to look into.

 * Thank you the information, I am sure it will help others running into the same
   limit issue 😉
 * The plugin developer will investigate further your finding in regards to the 
   error or no error message.
 * Can you mark this support thread as resolved.
 * Thank you

 * Resolved. TL;DR:
 * **Problem:** After roughly 106 images in a slide, no more images were being saved.
   You could choose an image, but when pressing the update button, the image disappears
   with no error message in the WordPress UI.
 * **Solution:** In the php.ini file, I increased the amount for the following: 
   _max\_input\_vars_
 * Restarted apache and images were able to be saved.
