  • I have resolved my problem.

    I found the answer to my own question about the relative path by inserting
    some temporary code into the plugin source.

    The answer is that the path is relative to the root of the web site.

    I would like to suggest that the lines below [about line 14 or so]

    }else{
    $html = ‘Error: The image folder does not exist or is unreadable’;
    }

    be changed to

    }else{
    $html = ‘Error: The image folder at ‘ . $location . ‘does not exist or is unreadable’;
    }

    This will possibly help others with similar problems.

    Permissions for the directory are:

    drwxr-xr-x 2 priceweb pg551475 4096 Dec 14 13:47 enter

    Permissions for the files in the directory are:

    -rw-r–r– 1 priceweb pg551475 428909 Dec 14 13:47 enter10.jpg
    -rw-r–r– 1 priceweb pg551475 597117 Dec 14 13:47 enter20.jpg

    This looks OK to me. Am I wrong?

    Your instructions say “Please note: this path is relative to
    your WordPress installation.” What exactly does this mean?
    My wordpress files are in the about directory which is one level
    below the “root” directory for the web site.

    I just loaded Simple Slide Show and I cannot get it to find my images.
    I get “Error: The image folder does not exist or is unreadable”.

    My shortcode is [simpleslideshow location=”/enter”] and my directory structure is:
    .
    ├── about
    │   ├── enter
    │   ├── wp-admin
    │   ├── wp-content
    │   └── wp-includes

    What am I doing wrong?
