  • Hello,

    PrettyLink Bar is not working properly. If there is someone experiencing the same issues and have a solution, it would be greatly appreciated if you would share. I am using PrettyLink Pro and Comet Theme.

    Example URL:
    http://eternaljoi.com/otk
    http://eternaljoi.com/lq8

    I have reviewed/updated settings but the ‘bar’ is formatted improperly and looks unprofessional.

    I am not an expert with code and hope that the solution is a simple fix.

    I do not know when or how the issue came about but it has been over two weeks and a resolution would be great (especially since it is a ‘paid’ upgrade and not free).

    Thank you for your assistance James. I have resolved the issue and with the WP updates several of the issues resolved themselves. Thanks!

    kmessinger,

    Thank you so much for your reply and suggestions. I deactivated all of the plugins and re-activated them one at a time.

    The problem: some of the plugins were either obsolete or redundant. They have been deleted and when I view the site in Firefox5 and IE8, everything looks good.

    Again, thank you for your assistance and have a great weekend. Blog URL EternalJoi

    Hi JLueze,

    Thanks for replying. The actual slides (images) are being edited in the Slide menu and placed into individual Slideshows. It was not until a change was required that I noticed the slides did not appear within the Slideshow (or were grouped). The filter works fine.

    Meteor Slideshow is really a great plugin, JLueze. I was looking for something quick and simple that did not require a degree in WordPress, and with Meteor Slideshow I have a great sidebar.

    Thanks again and have a great weekend.

    Hello JLeuze, Just want to say thank you for your assistance. You have answered all of my questions. Have a great day!

    Good Morning JLueze,

    Hope all is well. Your time and patience are greatly appreciated.

    1. Cropping Images: My theme is Comet and there are no other image plugins. All images are created in PowerPoint, given the same dimensions before being uploaded into WordPress, and saved as .png. I notice, after uploading the images, that some are cropped and others are not; however, the thumbnails are showing no cropping. Because the issue does not involve Meteor Slide, I am satisfied.

    2. Slideshow with Thumbnails: The example slideshow with thumbnails code that you have provided is exactly what I require; however, where should it be pasted? And, should I paste all of the code.

    It will be the blog’s home page and feature selected slideshows (i.e., monthly promotions). A slideshow has been created with the slug ‘home’ and selected images have been selected. However, when I paste the code into the page, it is showing the code.

    $(‘#slideshow’).before(‘<ul id=”nav”>’).cycle({
    fx: ‘turnDown’,
    speed: ‘fast’,
    timeout: 0,
    pager: ‘#nav’,

    // callback fn that creates a thumbnail to use as pager anchor
    pagerAnchorBuilder: function(idx, slide) {
    return ‘

    • <img src=”‘ + slide.src + ‘” width=”50″ height=”50″ />
    • ‘;
      }
      });

      #slideshow { left: 20px }
      #nav { width: 300px; margin: 15px }
      #nav li { width: 50px; float: left; margin: 8px; list-style: none }
      #nav a { width: 50px; padding: 3px; display: block; border: 1px solid #ccc; }
      #nav a.activeSlide { background: #88f }
      #nav a:focus { outline: none; }
      #nav img { border: none; display: block }

      3. Multiple Slideshows: If I use the code below to the Home page, is it correct to change code to (“home”, “”) and paste it into the Home page? If not, where should it be pasted?

      <?php if(function_exists(‘meteor_slideshow’)) { meteor_slideshow(“home”, “”); } ?>

      Thank you very much!

    JLeuze,

    Thank you for replying so quickly. It appears that the issue is not with Meteor Slideshow.

    The images are being cropped after being uploaded into WordPress.

    Can you recommend a WP plugin that can fix this? The blog is being re-created from scratch because I thought there was a bug in the program.

    Lastly, can you provide a step-by-step process on how to create a slide show with thumbnails for my home page that is separate from the widget?

    After reading other posts I understand that to accomplish this, custom coding is required. I do not know how to write code and I am not sure where it should be inserted.

    For instance: Do I go to my hosting account (GoDaddy) and insert the information in the wp-content? Or can I insert it into the Admin/Options .css file?

    Again, your assistance is appreciate.

    JLeuze, Everything is working great. Thanks so much for your help. Have a great day.

    Hi JLeuze, Thanks for the quick response. As instructed, I set the size before uploading images (settings 247×189), deleted all of the images and reloaded a new one from my hard drive. As you can see (www.eternaljoi.com) the image is cut off and is not centered. The code is in a text widget – [meteor_slideshow] and the theme is Arjuna. Thanks for your assistance.

    Hi James, Thanks for replying so quickly. That was a typo on my part; it is set at /%category%/%postname%/. I did notice that in the All-in-one SEO, the Page Format says – Part %page%. Should I change it? Thanks!

    Hello JLeuze, I am very new at WP and I really like your plugin. The simplicity is just what I’ve been looking for; however, I’m having an issue with the images being cut off in the sidebar (widget). As suggested, I set the size in the settings area before uploading the images and have removed and uploaded several times but the issue persists. I upgraded to WP 3.0.1 and noticed that your plugin shows up under wp-content and there is no file for slides. I’m wondering if my images for the slideshow are uploading into the incorrect files. As mentioned earlier, I am very new at this and any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
