Hi Neil, you need to use the shortcode rather than the template tag in the Weaver options I think:
[meteor_slideshow]
Thanks for the info. With the change to the [meteor_slideshow] short code the slide show works like I envisioned it, however, the slide show stacked on top of the picture…even after I removed to he image.
Still all check boxes are unchecked. It seems that you have a really good product, but there are a few “gotchas” along the way. Were do I go from here?
Again, thanks for your help!
Neil
To remove the header image you need to set “Hide Featured Image for Header” to 0. You’ll find this in the Main Options.
I looked in the main option section and the “Hide Featured Image for Header” option is just a check box and it is unchecked. There not an option to set it to “0”…am I missing something?
Awaiting further instructions…
Sorry about that, you need to set the option below that, “Header Image Height”, to 0.
Thank you for your patience! It finally works and I am happy. I like the fact that you not only write a really nice plugin, but also take the time to stand behind your product to make sure that those who download your plugin are happy with it as well.
This has been a really good user experience because you are engaged; you got back to me relatively quickly. Now if I can make a suggestions, update your video on your site. In that one you go into taking out code etc. The way you have explained the use of your plugin to me is far more effective and useful.
Great job with the plugin and great job on the customer care.
Regards,
Neil
No problem Neil, I think great documentation and support is a huge part of any good theme or plugin!
You’re right that video is out of date. I’m hoping to update it and record some additional videos soon, like one specifically about adding slideshows to the Weaver theme.
Adding a video tutorial video geared toward the Weaver theme would be great! I think the Weaver theme is used a great deal buy those just getting started with WP and know HTML and CSS. As it offers a great deal of flexibility.
Thank you so much for your help today! Keep up the good work.
Regards,
Neil
I have followed all the instructions and added to code to my weaver themes blog and I am getting extra space under the slides how can i remove it? http://www.ccfwichita.com
Combogirl0, in your Weaver theme >the Dashboard >Main Options > scroll down to Image Head height. If there is a number in Image Head height, replace with “0.” Then refresh your site.
Also make sure that you have removed all of your pictures in the “header section.” If you are using Super Cache, delete your cache and refresh your browser.
This should work
Neil
Thanks Neil,
I had done all those things and still had the problem. I messed with it more today and figured out my problem. My slideshow setting for size of the slideshow was bigger than the slides I was using. Once I changed the setting it fixed.
thanks again, Patti
You are quite welcome Patti, I am glad that I could help. I struggled with the metor slide show plugin as well at first. So I am glad that I could help out a bit.

Hi guys i have problems with this plug in all THE time. At first with THE Theme I’m currrently having On http://www.dutch-fashion-designers.con I couldnt navigate and Posts appeared double?? Now I changed theme and Then back to current Theme and THE slideshows do not appear On my iPhone??? First time this worked and I would love it to work again ??! X
Hi Valerie, it looks like everything is running alright, there are no errors and I can see the slideshow in the desktop version of Safari. I tested it on my Android mobile and it loads fine, touchwipe nav is working, no problems.
It should work fine on the iPhone as well, just to rule them out, try clearing your cache on your mobile, make sure you’re getting the latest versions of all the files. And try loading the site via wifi to make sure it isn’t loading too slowly over your cell connection.
Are you doing anything different for mobile that could be affecting it, mobile plugins, different theme, anything like that?
Yes 5 minutes later it worked again…just got a panic attack…haha Thank you so much!!
