# [Plugin: Meteor Slides] Issue with navigation

 * I just installed Meteor Slides and it seems perfect for my project.
    After installing
   it, I ran into the issue that all the buttons, for both paged and next/prev are
   showing both the up and over state. I think this is an issue with my css, but
   I don’t know what it might be. So what I am seeing is that the two images for
   up and over/on are just sitting next to each other.
 * Is this some default setting that I messed up with my css?
 * Thanks a lot for any help!

 * Hi Brian, this is probably a conflict with your theme, can you share a link to
   the site you are working on?

 * Hi Josh,
    thank you for having a look. I had to move the site to my server, hence
   the lag in response.

 * Brian, I took a look at your site. I see that the slideshow that you are loading
   has the slug of “home_slider”. I would confirm that that is correct, unless you
   specifically created the slug like that, it wouldn’t use and underscore, it would
   look like this: “home-slider”.

 * I did set up a Slideshow with slug “home_slider”. So I think that is not the 
   issue. I was thinking that maybe my css reset is resetting something?

 * So I did a bit more investigation. I think it all works, except for the images
   don’t want to sit on top of each other. I am guessing something I have in my 
   css is killing that in the meteor css.

 * Okay, sorry for all the posts. I figured it out, I had some padding that was 
   messing up the sprites in the buttons.
 * Thank you!!!

 * Hi Brian, I took a closer look. It is a problem with the CSS, not the reset, 
   but with the theme’s stylesheet. It has a lot of rules that target all the anchors,
   which is adding padding to the slideshow nav links:
 *     ```
       a {
           background-image: url("img/general/link_arrow.gif");
           background-position: right 7px;
           background-repeat: no-repeat;
           color: #C41230;
           font: 14px/24px "Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
           padding-right: 14px;
           text-decoration: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * You could set the padding of the paged and prev/next nav links to zero to fix
   this. But I would recommend not adding such specific rules to all the anchors,
   because every time you don’t want a link to have that style, you have to override
   it by setting the background to none and zeroing out the padding.
 * Instead the general anchor rules should be very generic, maybe set a color. And
   you can specify that all the anchors in the sidebar or content area should have
   that arrow style. Or maybe even only add it to links that have a certain class.

 * One more question. Is there a way to change the path to the custom css file I
   have now in my template directory? I would love to put that file in my css folder.

 * No problem Brian, are you referring to the meteor-slides.css file? Meteor Slides
   checks for that in the root of your theme, so it can’t be moved to a sub-directory.
