No slideshow appears. Instead, all I get is a regular list of attached images.
The slideshow module is installed and enabled.
Slideshow and attachments are enabled under the workflow settings for my content type.
Slideshow settings do appear when I edit the node, but it doesn't matter what display location, alignment, or image size I choose. The images just continue to display as a list below the body.
I have tried in Garland as well as other themes, but the outcome is the same.
I have tried using IE8 and Firefox 3 with no different results.
The result is the same no matter which user I log in as.
I have tried clearing the cache, and I have tried re-installing the module. I have tried deleting the content type and configuring it again.
The page source of the node does not seem to contain any reference to "slide" or "slideshow" or any indication that the module is installed, even though the options are all there if I hit "edit".

Additional info:
I got these messages when I created a new slideshow node with two attached images:

Is your files directory writable? Please check at admin/reports/status.

Any more ideas? I would really love for this module to work.

Hello, I can't seem to get this module to work for me either.
I've turned on the module and played with some of the settings under Site configuration-slideshow.
When I attach the image using the upload field in my content type page it just gives me a list of the images in a table and its also at the bottom of my content instead of the top where I set it to be.
Any kind of tutorial would be great. I've been looking for a module like this for weeks.
Thanks
Stephen

Hi I was having the same issue...you have to turn the slideshow on by content type. Go to Administer->Content Types, choose you content type and select "workflow settings" then enable slideshow (disabled by default). Now you get "slideshow settings" under that content type when you create new content.

I don't get a slideshow check box when I look under workflow settings?
I'm I missing something?
Thanks

Thanks, It would be nice if they actually included that type of instructions when you download the module, otherwise how the heck are we supposed to know how to setup the module?? Mind reading?
