 * It works but conflicts with almost anything else. AVOID at current state. Javascript
   code should be updated.

 * This solution from someone else fixes the JS issue. It works for me on one of
   my sites: [http://www.belindasdesigns.net](http://www.belindasdesigns.net)
 * And here is an alternative plug-in that works just as well: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vslider/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vslider/)
 * From JoshGuss: I too use this widget and came across this (and a couple other)
   posts while seeking out a solution for this. It seems like a well supported alternative
   to this plugin is the best way to go (which I have not yet tried to seek out),
   but in the meantime, I do think I was able to come up with a fix…
 * Let me preface this by saying that I am not a Plugin developer and while this
   does work for me, I am not sure if this is the right way to go about doing this
   and cannot guarantee it will work with your site/setup:
 * 1) Open up the smart-slideshow-widget.php file within the plugin folder
    2) Go
   to line 404 3) Change this line…
 * wp_enqueue_script(‘jQuery-UI-Effects’, WP_PLUGIN_URL . ‘/smart-slideshow-widget/
   js/jquery-ui.min.js’);
 * to this…
 * wp_enqueue_script(‘jQuery-UI-Effects’, ‘[http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.9.2/jquery-ui.js&#8217](http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.9.2/jquery-ui.js&#8217););
 * It seems that the current plugin is just using an older version of jQuery UI 
   which is what seems to be causing the issues in the backend of WordPress. Making
   this changed fixed the issues on the backend for me while keeping the plugin 
   itself still functional on the frontend.

 * Hello,
 * Many thanks for your kind feedback.
    Excellent site by the way! You are doing
   an excellent job in downsizing your images and keeping good quality and the site
   looks really very nice. Congrats!
 * Indeed, the changes seem to work.
 * The other plugin (vslider) is also outdated – and so is their website – but they
   seem to have a more recent version (5) somewhere but don’t know where.
