When slide shows are part of a bigger aggregated page (as teasers), next button gets totally confused and starts displaying wrong images for the given slideshow. I find slideshows working correctly only when they are the only posting on the page, which is rarely my use-case.

Please see example on the Web Site I am developing for my wife: http://jasminahomes.ca/tags/homes. I had to demote all theses slideshow postings from the front-page today :-(

Also try entering: http://jasminahomes.ca/tags/homes?page=3 - all slideshows jump to 3rd image!

I don't know it this is related to me not being able to turn on JavaScript support? Is it, or it is some other issue altogether?

Thanks!
Daniel

P.S. I tried replacing 4.7 module with the one from CVS, but existing slideshow content types became invisible, and there was MANY warnings like these:

Warning: Illegal offset type in /home/public_html/includes/common.inc on line 1216
Warning: Illegal offset type in /home/public_html/includes/common.inc on line 1218

I can confirm this problem. I just promoted a 2nd slideshow to the frontpage but the NEXT button shows images from the wrong slideshow.

I am aware of that bug, thank you for pointing it out. Unfortunately, a fix would require a complete rewrite of the JavaScript. For 5.0, I already did that (see the CVS version). Of course, that new fixed version requires jQuery. craq already ported the jQuery integration to 4.7. I will probably go that way and require a patched 4.7/a jQuery module for slideshow to function correctly.

Version: 4.7.x-1.x-dev » 5.x-1.1

I have Drupal 5.0 beta2 and I installed Slideshow 5.x-1.1. I keep getting the same error, multiple Slideshows don't work on the same page. Where is this fix you mentioned? It seems that HEAD is the same as 5.x-1.1 and the CVS is just as old.

Just to let you guys know about the "workaround":

I have replaced this module with Flash Gallery w/ Simpleviewer module (http://drupal.org/project/flash_gallery). Works pretty nice for what we need it. You can try it out for yourself at: http://jasminahomes.ca/fgallery/32. The only problem I now have is that Flash Gallery front page sucks under FireFox (click on "Image galleries" link). I don't have time to look into this, especially when I see that majority of visitors come to me using IE.

For those planning to follow my path, you'll first need to change node type from 'slideshow' to 'story' using SQL similar to what I used:

SELECT node.title, node.type, node.nid
FROM node
WHERE node.type = 'slideshow'

Stunning 3 Bedroom Totally Renovated Home in Exclu...  	slideshow  	22
Spectacular 4 Bedroom Home for Sale in Lake Wilcox... 	slideshow 	43
Cozy 3 Bedroom Semi in Aurora Backing onto Green S... 	slideshow 	61
...

UPDATE node SET type = 'story' WHERE nid = 22
... etc.

Hope this help,
Daniel

No need to switch, I figured out the reason why it still wasn't working correctly and released a new version.
