 * I see from another topic that a hack is needed so that effects other than ‘fade’
   take effect, but can someone list what the valid settings for cycle_effect are
   in the free edition, please?

 * [@swoolrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swoolrich/) – The values shown
   in the drop-down of the Basic Slideshow effect option under Gallery > Gallery
   Settings are the ones used for the other effects available.

 * I’ve edited the code in the page and it seems to always fade?

   not provide support for customizations or modifications to our code it may help
   to provide your snippet for reference.

 * Changed from fade to wipe. All I did was edit ‘cycle_effect’. When I go to edit
   the actual gallery it doesn’t offer an ‘effect’ dropdown. In the settings it’s
   shown as ‘scrollDown’.
 * `[ngg_images source="galleries" container_ids="1" display_type="photocrati-nextgen_basic_slideshow"
   gallery_width="450" gallery_height="300" cycle_effect="wipe" cycle_interval="
   4" show_thumbnail_link="0" thumbnail_link_text="[Show thumbnails]" order_by="
   sortorder" order_direction="ASC" returns="included" maximum_entity_count="500"]`

   your work-around.

 * It didn’t work!

 * [@swoolrich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/swoolrich/) – Hmm … i was a 
   bit surprised that the change you made appeared to work originally as I had not
   been able to do so myself. We are still looking at this issue although, in general,
   given that you are noting there is no “drop-down” may point to another or more
   complex issue at hand.
 * Thanks!
