Am having a problem with the Views_Slideshow module.
I have created my view as Style: Slideshow and set my CCK Image field in the Fields section. It displays the images in a column, one under each other as though it was a regular view, not one at a time in a slideshow.

Have I missed something obvious to make it 'slide'? I've even watched the Drupal Therapy screencast and made sure my settings are exactly the same, and even tried sliding non-images.

I was having the same problem. I replaced the field I was using with some other field, tested, worked, added the original back, took the temporary fields away and it worked. Some kind of glitch I guess.

I'm the exact same issue, but no amount of finagling on my part seems to fix it. I have a content type with several imagefields added to it. In my views slideshow I add each of the image fields and have all the settings as they are supposed to be. On the view page, in firefox it simply displays the images one after the other and in the console it says
[cycle] terminating; too few slides: 1
when there are four images there.
This seems to be a problem with grouping, but I don't know how to ungroup them?
Thanks...

I'm having the same problem. Everything is loading, I see the views-slideshow tags in the HTML, the jQuery cycle js is being added, but no slideshow. It just shows up like a regular view. I re-installed everything, tried using different fields. Still nothing. Any ideas?

For me it was solved by disabling Theme Developer.

I had this problem for over a day! Pulled my hair out until I disabled Theme developer, and magically everything started working... :)

If you have a multiple field group for the CCK image field and don't 'ungroup' them, this can be a problem for the slideshow. Make sure to have 'group multiple fields' unchecked.

Enable "Views,Views Slideshow,Views Slideshow: Cycle" modules in admin/modules.
Create "slide show" in views. Decide what kind of "Effect" want in slideshow settings.

Hi,

I had the same issue before, here is my solution:

Check the file of yourtheme.info, replace the old version of jquery scripts to scripts[] = js/jquery-1.7.1.min.js.

Obviously you should download the jquery-1.7.1.min.js to your folder first

Then the slideshow appeared!

The reason I saw no sliding was because in the view, I'd set the
Pager
Use pager: Display a specified number of items | 1 items

So it was sliding, but between only one pic. This was revealed when I enabled
Views>Format>Settings
Widgets>Top Widgets>Pager
and it reported "1 of 1".

I'm sure I'd tried increasing Pager to display 2 items, previously, and ended up with two images on the page, instead of one slide-to another one.

Anyway, in Views I set Pager>use Pager>0 items (ie. unlimited) and sliding began working.

It's not 'liquid' though, and I'm presently looking at the Liquid Slider plugin and maybe http://codekarate.com/daily-dose-of-drupal/drupal-7-views-slideshow
