Help me configure an image slideshow [#606266]

Hi,

I can't get Views Slideshow to work properly with my images

These are my steps:

1. Upload a bunch of images using ImageFUpload and categorise them under a taxonomy term (needed for my implementation)
2. Create a new View (Fields: Image, Filters: Image Type, Taxonomy Term,)
3. Add block display
4. Change Style from Unformatted to Slideshow
5. Select ThumbnailHover Mode.
6. Save View and configure Block

As a result I get the slideshow but I also get my 4 images below the slideshow as a normal unformatted list.

Any thoughts?

Maybe I'm not getting it, but how do you upload multiple images to a single node and then categorize it with taxonomy? Are you making each node a gallery and then categorizing the gallery? Views slideshow will not rotate through images on a single node. It is made to rotate through views results. Could you explain what's happening a little more?

Hi,

Image FUpload is a module that allows me to upload and tag multiple images at the same time.
Each image is still a single node - It just saves time.

Apart from that nothing strange really.
I create image nodes, categorise them, create a block view and style it with the slideshow style.

If you need more information please shout!

I didn't know image FUpload allowed you to connect with taxonomy. I just realized that you are using thumbnailhover. It is supposed to show the entire node after your slideshow. I think what you are wanting to use is SingleFrame and not thumbnailhover. You might want to try singleframe and enable the pager choosing the thumbnail type and it might give you what you want. Or maybe not using the pager then it will only rotate the images.

Hope this is what you are looking for.
