 * Hi,
    this is my first post, hopefully I can offer some know how myself soon.
 * I recently installed WP, and a theme from **WPshower called Sight**.
    I am quite
   early on with my modifications of this theme, but already have an issue – **My
   slideshow is broken and will not display more than 1 post.**
 * I have looked through all the comments on WPShowers site, and many other people
   have the same issue, however, they have fixed the problem by renaming the jquery.
   cookie…. to jquery.cooki…. Perhaps someone is familiar with this method…
 * If someone could peak a look at my code and give me a clue of what to alter i
   would be very grateful!
 * **Also, very dumb, but i cannot find the right line to change the Serif fonts…**
   i have changed all fonts i can see in the style.css.
 * thank you in advance.

 * Re the fonts
 * In your body css you have
    `font: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif,;`
 * The correct form is
 * `font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;`
 * Notice there is no comma after sans-serif

 * Ah, thanks for pointing that out!
 * I have tried changing the name of the cookie.js – but this did not work for me.
   Could it be another problem, or am i most likely just doing it wrong… I will 
   try again either way
 * thanks

 * Hi,
 * did anyone get the slideshow issue to work? I have an installation of the sight
   theme and it all worked well – but suddenly only one post is displayed in the
   slider and it doesn´t show the others anymore?
 * thanks for your ideas…

 * I’ve just spent all night trying to get the slider to work in the Sight template
   and have just sorted it.
 * josiahemsley is right in that you have to change “jquery.cookie.js” to “jquery.
   cooki.js” and you have to do this in TWO places.
 * (1) in the theme directory (wp-content/themes/sight/js) change the filename of“
   jquery.cookie.js” to “jquery.cooki.js”
 * (2) in the theme’s header.php approximately (I changed some of the code above
   so it will be around this line) line 15 change
    `wp_enqueue_script('cookie', 
   get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery.cookie.js', 'jquery', false);` to `
   wp_enqueue_script('cookie', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery.cooki.
   js', 'jquery', false);`
 * If you do both of these, it should work. I’m using WP 3.2.1.

 * Hello,
    I’m having the same issue as Mark of not having my slideshow show up,
   but I can’t find where the “jquery.cookie.js” file is kept to change the name
   to “jquery.cooki.js”.
 * I have looked all over my WP and I can see all the different templates, like 
   Header.php, Index.php, etc. but nothing that says jquery. I also can’t find a
   theme directory.
 * I use GoDaddy as my hosting and have my WordPress installed through them – could
   this cause things to appear (or be located) differently?
 * If so, how do I find my jquery cookie file?
 * I can find the jquery cookie file in the zip folder on my computer and as a last
   resort, I am wondering if I could change the name there and then re-upload the
   whole WordPress theme with the changed file name, but I’m wondering if that will
   create more complications?
 * I would rather just change the name of the jquery cookie file online since it
   sounds so simple – I just need to find it.

 * Thanks to [Neosnc](http://wpshower.com/forums/showthread.php?t=426&page=1) who
   came up with this fix
 * Open the header.php
 * Change 2 calls of is_home() to is_front_page()
 * They are near lines 19 and line 52.
 * Simples

 * I’m running WP 3.3.1 on [http://www.morganvicki.com](http://www.morganvicki.com)
   and just made the changes that Mark suggested above and everything is working
   fine now.
 * Anyone know how to control the speed of the slideshow now?

 * afrospaceman:
 * You can find the options to change slideshow speed in “Theme Options” page in
   admin page. The numbers are given milliseconds.

 * Hi, everybody.
    I had this slider issue up to just a few minutes ago, when I 
   replaced the slider section of style.css, with the text of a backup installation
   that did work. Finally I don’t know how I fixed it!. Now it happens that when
   the slider shows on screen it consumes all the resources in my PC, and the graph
   of the CPU performance looks like a saw. Weird. When I’m not showing the slider
   on screen everything is fine. Ideas welcome. Cheers! LS.

 * tnx afrospaceman for that idea with afrospaceman is_home() -> is_front_page()
   change! now it slideshow works perfectly.
 * but one new problem appeared: all the posts that became part of slideshow are
   not shown on home page among other posts, how to fix that? anyone knows?
