# Version 1.3 Breaks CSS Styles

 * In the process of adding a desecrate ID/class for each slide show gallery in 
   version 1.3+ you removed all the general styles. So whereas before we could target#
   slideshow, .slideshow, or #slideshow-wrapper, now there is no common class or
   ID for all slideshows. They all have the slideshow ID in every class/ID.
 * That means we can’t manipulate the slideshows via our style sheets. For example
   we cannot float the slideshows to place something beside them anymore.
 * For comparison, [this page](http://test.web-savvy-marketing.com/hans-20/listings/900-deep-valley-milford-mi-48381/)
   is currently using version 1.3.1.1 of your plugin. There is no longer any way
   to put the box with the price and other data beside the slideshow.
 * In contrast here is [that same page](http://demo.web-savvy-marketing.com/hans-20/listings/900-deep-valley-milford-mi-48381/)
   with version 1.2.3.2 of the plugin showing how it is supposed to look.
 * Can you please put the generic CSS selectors back in the slideshow output along
   with slideshow specific selectors?

 * Thank you for your post, Chris.
 * The slideshow wrapper just needs a `float:left;` on it.
    See this screenshot/
   illustration: [http://goo.gl/yda6hG](http://goo.gl/yda6hG)
 * If you want to, you can apply the CSS to that DIV directly in the `slideshow-
   gallery/views/default/css.php` file or alternatively you can wrap your shortcode/
   hardcoding with a custom DIV element and apply `float:left;` to that.
 * Let me know if this helps, please.

 * Heya Antoine! I get what you are saying. The thing is that the folks who purchase
   our themes have a very broad range of technical ability. With many of the less
   technically inclined, asking them to add a div around your shortcode for something
   that we previously could just put in the theme’s style sheet will cause confusion
   for them, to say the least. Asking them to modify one of your plugin’s files 
   is beyond many of their skill levels altogether.
 * Are you saying that you cannot simply either replace or add _one_ generic CSS
   selector to your plugin’s content so we can provide a better experience for our
   customers by adding the necessary styling for them?

 * Not sure why this was marked as resolved. Changed that as I’m still hoping for
   an answer to my previous question.

 * Thank you for your response, Chris.
 * I marked it as resolved because I assumed the answer would be the solution.
 * I understand what you’re saying about the DIV though that you cannot put that
   around the shortcode since you seem to be relying on other users to use this.
 * We can add a CSS class selector to the main slideshow wrapper DIV. I have added
   this to our development list just now so that we can include it into the next
   release. In the meanwhile, if you submit a ticket to us, I’ll give you a development
   build which includes this. You can submit the ticket here: [http://tribulant.com/support/](http://tribulant.com/support/)

 * We’ve added more CSS selectors in version 1.4 of the Slideshow Gallery plugin
   so that it can be styled more easily. Let me know if it helps, please.

 * Just updated to your version 1.4. Very nice!
 * Had to make one minor adjustment to the CSS in our themes and now we’re back 
   in business. Thank you for adding the generic CSS class back into the plugin 
   output.
 * For anyone else reading this thread I also had to change the setting for the 
   path to the gallery images under **Slideshow –> Configuration**. But that’s going
   to vary depending on server configuration. I had to go with absolute paths for
   the images. Also I updated all the shortcodes to the new `[tribulant_slideshow]`
   shortcode in case the old `[slideshow]` one ever stops working.

 * Thank you for your response.
    I’m glad to hear that you like the new version.
 * Please remember to give the plugin a rating and click “Works” for 3.9/1.4 if 
   you are satisfied with it and if everything works as expected.
