Title: Slideshow disappears when max width set – examples Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Slideshow disappears when max width set – examples * Resolved [julievetter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/julievetter/) * (@julievetter) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slideshow-disappears-when-max-width-set-examples/) * Hi, first, thank you for this great plugin. I donated as soon as I saw how flexible and easy it was and hope everyone donates who uses it. Second, thank you for being so generous and kind with your responses in the WP forum. * I am upgrading an old site. Portfolio pages have a background, text on the left and a slideshow on the right. Here is the old site: [http://cecileh.com/?lang=en](http://cecileh.com/?lang=en) * Issues: 1) Adding a width makes slideshow vanish. 2) Slideshow appears to low and then jumps to right position 3) Trying to anticipate best way to add a “next look” button below slideshow, which is part of background for now. * 1) Fixing the slideshow to a location and size (417h x 347w). When I add a width it vanishes, but if I don’t, it gets too big. Here is no width set and then width set: [http://parislasamaritaine.com/ch/portfolio-catherinec/](http://parislasamaritaine.com/ch/portfolio-catherinec/) [http://parislasamaritaine.com/ch/portfolio/](http://parislasamaritaine.com/ch/portfolio/)( disappears) * 2) The slideshow appears lower at first with the bottom cut off and then adjusts to the right position with second slide. Same on home page. * 3) I have to turn the “next relook” into a button and any experienced suggestion on how to position this below the slideshow is appreciated. * I am using Atahualpa for the theme, WPML for the translations and not much else. * Here is the code for the portfolio pages: * ```

New look for Marie-Hélène!

Challenge: No longer satisfied with her look and ready to take it up a notch.

We started this makeover with a visit to the salon for a fresh look for Marie-Helene based on an initial color and shape analysis. Next was shopping, planned around a predetermined budget and a brand new way of making choices to reflect a more confident attitude. Our consultation and advice established an increased ease in building a wardrobe that will reflect well on Marie-Hélène.

Result: Increased daring and greater freedom of expression.

The ‘`margin-right: 220px;`‘ value causes every element in the slideshow to be a bit smaller. As the maximum width of the slideshow is set to be just about 100 pixels wider, the images won’t be visible. * The best thing to do, would probably be to delete this line from the custom stylesheet: * `.slideshow_container div {margin-left:0px;top:50px;margin-right:220px;}` * To make the slideshow align next to the text, you should add something like this to the ‘.slideshow_container { }’ class: * ``` .slideshow_container { float: left; /* Aligns the slideshow next to the text block. */ margin: 80px 0 0 80px; /* This sets the top and left margin to 80 pixels, so the image is aligned neatly. Of course you can change these values in any way you like. */ } ``` * I’ll answer question three in a couple of minutes. * Best regards, Stefan * Plugin Author [Stefan Boonstra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stefanboonstra/) * (@stefanboonstra) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slideshow-disappears-when-max-width-set-examples/#post-3620396) * Hi Julie, * As promised, here’s what you could do to position a ‘Next relook’ button below the slideshow. In this example I’ve placed the button right over the image. * ``` Next relook ``` * It will probably work best if you add this piece of code right after this line of HTML code (the first line of code you put in your code): * `
