 * Hi,
 * After updating the slide show is now just a blank box / not showing. I use shortcode
   to display it on my homepage in a text widget box. It worked great before today.
   Any ideas what is happening?

 * Thank you for your post, Dan.
 * Is it possible that this is the same problem as you?
 * [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-slideshow-gallery-slideshow-not-working-1?replies=3](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-slideshow-gallery-slideshow-not-working-1?replies=3)
 * Can you try that new code for `slideshow-gallery/views/default/gallery.php` and
   see if it fixes the problem?
 * I look forward to your feedback!

 * Did you replace the code in the `slideshow-gallery/views/default/gallery.php`
   file?
 * Please reinstall the plugin and replace the code in that file, it should solve
   it.

 * You can delete the folder via FTP or file manager in your hosting.
    I assume 
   the plugin is not under “Plugins” in WordPress to delete?

    I don’t see slideshow code there though:

 * Are you using a shortcode in a text widget? Which shortcode?
    How are you displaying
   it? Some details would be helpful 🙂

 * I am using this shortcode: “[slideshow gallery_id=”1″]”
 * It is in a text widget.
 * That’s all I’m doing to display it. And yeah its that big blank section, its 
   called the “featured section”
 * edit: I put in a title for the text widget and it seems to appear

 * Thank you for your response.
 * There is a fix in 1.2.3.2 for the shortcode with the ‘gallery_id’ parameter.
   
   You can redownload from the plugin’s page here or upgrade through WordPress.
 * We apologize for the inconvenience caused!
