slider arrows backwards?
-
we have just started using metaslider for a picture of the day capability. see http://www.lakewenatcheeinfo.com the top photo in the slider is the most current, so it is displayed on open. the arrows are ‘backwards’ going back to yesterdays photo requires a > when a < would be more natural. is this configurable?

Hi lakewen,
Please could you check you don’t have ‘Reverse’ checked in the advanced settings? It all looks correct to me, but I’m not sure how the slides are ordered in Meta Slider itself.
Regards,
Tom.Thx for the response. I don’t see a Reverse choice in Advance.
we are using 2.7.2 basic version
Nivo Slider
theme default
arrows selected
smart crop
hover pauseinstructions from our developer add a new slide (it puts it at the bottom of the list of slides) drag the slide to the top as the list grows not having to drag the slide up would be a plus. thus the newest slide (one shown on opening the site) is first in the list and the oldest is at bottom of the list
just in case it matters this dialog is at the top of the admin panel:
One or more plugins have been activated or deactivated, please <empty the cache> and check the <minify settings> to maintain the desired user experience.Hi,
Thanks for the info. To be clear, the slide at the top of the slideshow (in WordPress) is the last slide when you view the slideshow on your site?
So you have, in Meta Slider, the following slides in this order:
Slide 1 (at the top)
Slide 2
Slide 3 (at the bottom)But they are displayed in this order on your site:
Slide 3
Slide 2
Slide 1Is that correct?
Regards,
Tomsorry for slow response been traveling.
it is a bit more complicated, hopefully this makes sense.if you take a quick look at the site this will make more sense
http://www.lakewenatcheeinfo.comThe oldest slide is the Biathalon slide, the newest is
Lake Wenatchee, By Bernice Schickeach slide is added at the end of the show, and the dragged to the top so it is the current slide displayed, when the site is launched
there are really two issues
1: to go back in time the user must press the right arrow, when left arrow would be more natural. Visitors want to see the current photo of the day and then navigate back thru pictures they might have missed.2: it would be great if there was a setting add new slides at the begining or end of the show. (save the dragging)
i don’t see an option to ‘reverse’ thanks for the help
thought about this a bunch more. the arrows are working in a logical manner. what we really need is a setting that says
X Start Displaying First Slide
O Start displaying Last SlideDefault to FIrst Slide
this would allow us to add slides at end, and not move them
by setting control to ‘Last’ we will get the arrow behavior we need
previous arrow slide would back up the list, exactly as needed
hoping to pop this up for further discussion.
bump every time i add a new photo to the slider and have to move it up thru all previous photos it makes me hope you have read the suggestion from above. help please
