 * Hi Nosilver4u, Thank you very much for replying!
 * That’s great news. However, google page speed still detects issues, for example
   It says that I can save 12,1 KiB (49% reduction) on this link:
    [http://www.3dogshostelsaopaulo.com/wp-content/gallery/frontpage1/thumbs/thumbs_HouseFront01.jpg?a64779](http://www.3dogshostelsaopaulo.com/wp-content/gallery/frontpage1/thumbs/thumbs_HouseFront01.jpg?a64779)
 * I’ve run the bulk optimize tool, and a lot of images got reduced very nicely,
   just a bunch of thumbs of next gen gallery didn’t, that’s why I asked.
 * I reset all plugin settings to default, and ran the bulk optimizer again, forcing
   to re-optimize images, but still they show up on googlepagespeed as unoptimized.

 * Hi Gunalan,
 * Pretty much all the things you want to change can be changed in the GUI of this
   plugin. There is no need to go into the “plugin directory” afaik.
 * Create your slideshow, and configure it using the GUI.

 * Hi Richard,
 * It looks like your slideshow cannot find it’s pictures. Have you tried to implement
   the slideshow in a post, to see if you get the same behaviour? If yes, then the
   problem is with your slideshow. If no, it might be some plugins are fighting 
   each other. Turn them all off, leave only the slideshow on, and try to implement
   it. If slideshow works, turn theother plugins back on, one by one, to see which
   plugin is the problem.
 * If that’s not it, the combination of your theme, WP 3.7.1 and the slideshow plugin
   might be the problem.

 * Hi FrontlineProd,
 * This plugin doesn’t look like it is made for arranging that many pictures, but
   I noticed that the first picture you add to the slideshow is the first picture
   that shows in the slideshow, the second will be shown second etc.
 * So, if you number all the filenames of your pictures, in the order that you want
   to import them, then you import them, there is a big chance that they will be
   imported into the slideshow in your desired order.
 * Let us know if that works for you.

 * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-insert-slideshow-in-lower-half-of-header/#post-4275930)
 * Hi Geo,
 * Right now, your header image has 50% white space along the bottom. If that is
   where you want to insert your slideshow, then I would delete that whitespace,
   making your header less high, less pixels.
 * Then I would add the slideshow code snippet at the top of your pages. Then it
   comes directly under your header image, before your text.
 * To get the code snippet, create your slideshow, and you can find the snippet 
   in your slideshow’s settings. Looks something like this, but with a different
   ID number:
    [slideshow_deploy id=’6242′]
 * If this is not what you want, and really want your slideshow in your header, 
   be prepared to mess with your theme’s php code, preferably in a child theme.
 * Hope this helps

 * Hi Mchen,
    I’m not really sure what your actual questions is, but this may work
   for you
 * 1)
    create your slideshow, save it. 2) get the “code snippet” from your slide
   show setting page. It looks like this: [slideshow_deploy id=’6242′] 3) <p>[slideshow_deploy
   id=’6242′]</p>
 * Did that answer your question?

 * > other pictures and text do not position where I would like them arround the

 * You will have to be more specific than that, because we have no idea which other
   pictures and text you mean.
 * If the elements that you cannot get aligned are not inside the slideshow, then
   I would think that the adhoc widget (that you are using somehow to align the 
   slideshows and other elements?) is the problem, not the slideshows, right?

 * hiya
 * your source code shows this:
    `<td> [<i>slideshow_deploy id='153']</i></td>`
 * Can you try to see if this works instead:
    `<td> [slideshow_deploy id='153']</
   td>`
 * So minus the italic tags
    If that doesn’t work, try to take it outside the table.

 * Thank you very much for your pointers. It wasn’t as hard to handle W3 as I feared.
 * One suggestion, the “help wizard” didn’t pick up on all the links indicated by
   Google Pagespeed Tool. I manually added a bunch of CSS sheets in W3, just clicking
   on “Add a stylesheet”. While adding them, they also appear to have a certain 
   order in which they should be placed in W3. Messing around with 11 sheets for
   about 20 minutes did the trick. Weird but, it looks like a theme.css has to be
   placed above a child.css
 * My page [http://www.beatshostelsaopaulo.com](http://www.beatshostelsaopaulo.com)
   went from 62/100 to 83/100, and messing with W3 this way solved a bunch of other
   issues I was having along the way as well!

 * It now sometimes works, not all the time.
 * Sometimes I still get this error:
    Fatal error: Unknown: Cannot use output buffering
   in output buffering display handlers in Unknown on line 0 Sometimes the page 
   shows a blank page, without any error.
 * I’ve checked my host, it allows 256MB memory_limit for PHP.
 * I’ve set my php.ini to limit to 128MB like this in PHP.ini:
    `memory_limit = 
   128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)`
 * I´ve set the wp-config.php to:
    /** Increase memory limit for php to 128MB. */`
   define('WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');`
