 * Hi
    Just a small problem: I have a page incluing the shortcode: [wppa type=”slideonly”
   album=”6″ size=”320″ align=”right”] Regardless of what I set in Settings/Slideshow/
   Slideshow dynamic behaviour/slideshow timeout it seems to be stuck on about 4s.
   Regardless of what I set the timeout to it doesn’t seem to change when viewing
   the page. I’m running Version 8.0.00.024

 * Are you sure the page or the shortcode is not cached?

 * No, I tested it on 3 sites & different pages & have viewed the results on 3 devices–
   cache cleared eveywhere but whatever I set Slideshow timeout to it’s stays at
   3-4 seconds.
    I’ve removed the shortcode from the pages, updated/saved & re-inseted
   the shortcode but it makes no difference. Here’s one of the pages with the timeout
   set to 8 secs: [http://www.gamlingayhistory.co.uk/](http://www.gamlingayhistory.co.uk/)

 * It behaves like a widget.
 * If it is a widget you can set the timeout on the widget activation screen.
    The
   default in widgets is 4 sec.
 * If it is a shortcode, you can add a timeout like:
    `[wppa type="slideonly" album
   ="13" timeout="8000"]` for 8 seconds

 * _If it is a shortcode, you can add a timeout like:
    [wppa type=”slideonly” album
   =”13″ timeout=”8000″] for 8 seconds
 * Yes, that works. Thanks.
    So, is that a bug?

 * _So, is that a bug?_ Don’t know as long as i can not reproduce it.

 * It’s odd in that it happens on 3 separate sites.
