Hi, I installed the module, edited my View so it is a Slideshow List - it even loads the hidden DIVs for the images I want it to display, but it will not rotate through the images. I am using it with Panels in Drupal 5.x. Any suggestions are welcome, thank you!

So after working with it further, I have found that the JS is not changing the DIVs at all. The DIVs load, the JS loads (both the .js file and the printed JS in the Drupal page), and all of my DIVs that I want to scroll through are listed as Hidden except for the first one. Any help?

I notice the problem occurs when I use pager.

Use pager: Yes
Items to display: 1 ( I have to put 1 here, otherwise, no slideshow)

The slideshow works fine wihout pager.
Use pager: No
Items to display: 5 ( not sure why I have to put 5, othwerwise, the pager will not show up)

The case is the same for both "page" or "block".

I am having this same exact issue. The funny thing is, it looks fabulous on Firefox on the Mac. But in Opera (and I'll bet MSIE) the first Views Slideshow node displays, and then fades out. It stays faded out for the durration of the other 3 view items to cycle. And then the first one fades back in.

If the developer has any interest in troubleshooting this, I notice the following in Firebug: The first div is not assigned a class. The rest of the displays are class="views_slideshow_hidden"

Then in sequence, they are set to "display: block;" and then back to "display: none;"

div id="views_slideshow_div_1_0" style="display: none;">
</div>
<div id="views_slideshow_div_1_1" class="views_slideshow_hidden" style="display: none;">
<div id="views_slideshow_div_1_2" class="views_slideshow_hidden" style="display: none;">

Maybe the first node in the sequence also has to have its class set to: class="views_slideshow_hidden"?

Maybe the page isn't catching the change in display style?

Notes: I am NOT using a pager. My view is of a type "node". I have no images in my View. I also might add that this issue is present it Drupal 6, which I am using.

Hope this helps.

Just chiming in that I have the same issue with D6 when I use a pager. Need to turn it off and set Items per page to the number of slides to show.

Verified the same issue one of my sites. The Pager says that it is turned off, but if you open it's settings, you find that none of the radio buttons are selected. Once you select none, everything seems to start working as expected.

Try upgrading to 2.x and see if the issue persists. Also can someone type out steps necessary to reproduce this issue?

I have updated the views slideshow 6.x-2.0-beta2 and updated all the modules to the latest securoty releases and now the view stopped rotating.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime I have created a basic pager so the user can at lest click through the slides. Please help! Any input would be greatly appreciated.

More than likely you need to edit the view and update the views_slideshow settings then save it again. No changes need to be made just resave it.

I set the images to published = no. saved, and then set it back to yes and it is still not working.
Any other suggestions? I have attached my settings as images to this post.

Do I need to install the jQuery separately?
Do I need to anything with any other modules?

I also adjusted the timing in the slideshow settings as well from 5000 - 5001 and saved.

Can you give me a link to your test slideshow?

I am having the same problem. It only show 1 node and so I get no rotation. I am having the same problem with rotor. It happened after I installed the ad module. I removed the ad module. I can't check for updates now either. It is really strange -- any ideas.

This still isn't fixed for me.
Any other suggestions.
It looks like its not just me.
Im going to consider using a better supported module if I can't get this working.
Any sugestions?

@kenyob I last asked for a link to your slideshow. Is that possible? If there is no rotation then 99% of the time I've found that there is a js error which stops all js execution. So if I could see the error that would be helpful.

I'm seeing the same issue and was able to isolate it to the beta1->beta2 upgrade. If I revert to beta1, my image slideshow rotates properly. With beta2, the first image is displayed but never rotates.

@elally make sure after you upgrade you edit the slideshow settings and then save it again. This adds a necessary variable.

I am using slideshow 6.x-2.0-beta2 with Drupal 6.15. The slideshow works flawlessly when I am logged in as user1. When I am logged out the slidehow crashes most of the time. Meaning that sometimes it works - most of the time it shows the first image and the top of second image but the display is "frozen". Permissions checked to access all views for anonymous user. I set pager to no.

It looks like something like this has been around for some time. HAs anybody come up with a solution.
