   I have the meteor slideshow in the header on the home page.
   I would also like some kind of a slideshow on the first image on that page which is a different size. Any solutions, please?

   You can add multiple slideshows of different sizes using metadata.

   Thanks Josh,
   Haven't had chance to try this yet but thank you anyway!

   Finally getting around to doing this. The slideshow is on the home page and the header.php was changed for it to show only on the home page. The second slideshow dimensions are a lot smaller and it needs to be on the same page. Do I add something in the header.php?
   

   <?php if ( is_front_page() ) { if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) { meteor_slideshow(); } } else {
   // Check if this is a post or page, if it has a thumbnail, and if it's a big one

   I did have a look at the link you provided before but I need a bit more help with this one!

   It depends on the location of the second slideshow. You would only need to edit the header if they both need to go in the header. If the second slideshow goes in the content or sidebar you can use the slideshow shortcode or widget.

   How do you change the sizes of the different slideshows? No instructions are provided on the links.

   You need to set the height and width in the metadata. This is a list of all the parameters you can change.

   So a mini 100x100 slideshow could be added like this:
   

   [meteor_slideshow metadata="height: 100, width: 100"]

   Thanks, but this does not appear to be working. That is what I tried and it's still displaying to the settings in the Admin. I also do not want the numbered navigation displayed.

   You should be able to turn the paged navigation off by choosing "none", or "prev/next". Can you post a link to the page you are working on?

    It works! Fine Work, Josh!

    @ triplemoons
    When you are using the widget please put only height: 100, width: 100 in the metatag field, otherwise it don't work.

    I never said I was using a widget.

    Josh got my issue worked out a few days ago anyway.
