Turn off Pause function?

I am using the widget — and the “Show Links” checkbox was already unchecked. I tried checking it, saving, then unchecking it again and saving…no change. Putting the cursor in the testimonial area halts the rotation.

I also unchecked everything in the Settings page. No change.

Finally: I added show_links=”false” to a shortcode. The rotator worked that way, but it still paused at a mouse over.

Disabling the pause is unusually important on my current draft design, because except for a large background photo and a thin header, the rotator is the only object on the home page. So some visitors will probably want to mouse over it because they expect there will be links. If they mouse over it within the first few “startup” seconds, it might never start scrolling before they leave the page.

From a previous forum post I learned that the pause function was recently added. Perhaps you could suggest how to modify the code to take it away; or suggest some custom code that I could add as a custom function to disable it without actually modifying the script.

Thanks
