Was easier to just use a different slide option so that there is always an image present and the white background is never revealed. * Thanks for your help. * Superfried * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Slideshow sortcode appears on first image?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slideshow-sortcode-appears-on-first-image/) * Thread Starter [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slideshow-sortcode-appears-on-first-image/#post-2085504) * Hi alchymyth * Thanks for the reply. * I inserted this into the functions and it did not work. However, I decided to try and insert the code in a standard text widget rather than the ‘(a) Slideshow’ widget and it now works correctly! * My only issue now is that the background of the widget is white and visible in some transitions. I tried wrapping a div round the code and changing the background colour in the css, but this did not work. I then tried to find the code responsible in the php, but I am not too hot with php. * Do you know a simple way to override the background colour on the text widget? * If not, thanks for your help so far. * Superfried. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [How to add slideshow feauture on dancefloor theme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-slideshow-feauture-on-dancefloor-theme/) * [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-slideshow-feauture-on-dancefloor-theme/#post-2071518) * Also, if you want your home page tab to link to the index file with the slideshow on, rather than a page called home, install this plugin… * [http://txfx.net/wordpress-plugins/page-links-to/](http://txfx.net/wordpress-plugins/page-links-to/) * It enables you to link a page to a url of your choice rather than the default permalink. * Superfried. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [How to add slideshow feauture on dancefloor theme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-slideshow-feauture-on-dancefloor-theme/) * [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-slideshow-feauture-on-dancefloor-theme/#post-2071517) * Hi * On the dancefloor theme, go to appearance/editor and then select the ‘options. php’ file. * In there you will see it says ‘auto false’ in the third option from the top. Change this to true and save. * This should make the slideshow appear. You can then change the images by adding featured events. * Hope this helps. * Superfried * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Theme overriding wordpress?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-overriding-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-overriding-wordpress/#post-2059878) * Hi Apljdi * Carlos at Gorilla sorted this out for me. I said that I had read somewhere a good way round the issue was to install custom fields for featured articles. I was not able to do this myself, but he was and now this problem is resolved. * Thanks * Superfried * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [NextGen Shortcode image links…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nextgen-shortcode-image-links/) * Thread Starter [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nextgen-shortcode-image-links/#post-2070213) * Ok, so I have been doing some more reading. I found that the ‘gallery.php’ file was inactive and potentially causing the problem. So I found a page that suggested I set-up a new file and locate it in a folder called ‘nggallery’ in my theme folder. * Now, rather than use the actual nextgen widget, using shortcode in a text widget enables you to force it to link to the correct php file… * New php file… `gallery-latestreleases.php` * Located here… `wp-content/themes/dancefloor/nggallery` * Shortcode… `[nggallery id=1 template=latestreleases]` * So the slideshow works as before, but once again, the custom field links are not working and when you click on the image it simply brings in the next slide. * If anyone can help with this it would be great, as this is one of the last niggles I need to iron out. * The development url is: `http://www.atmosoft.co.uk` * Superfried * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Theme overriding wordpress?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-overriding-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-overriding-wordpress/#post-2059867) * Hi Apljdi * Thanks for getting back to me. * That did seem to rectify the situation, so I got the client to purchase a higher level of the theme so that we can get forum support. Carlos at Gorilla is now looking into the issue and I will post back when we find a solution as it may be useful to others. * Superfried * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NextGEN Custom Fields] [Plugin: NextGEN Custom Fields] Custom Fields Not Correctly Linking](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-custom-fields-custom-fields-not-correctly-linking/) * [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-custom-fields-custom-fields-not-correctly-linking/#post-1826100) * Hello * I have also been having trouble with this with a site I am developing for a DJ friend. I am a graphic designer, ok with html and css, but new to php. * I have now replaced the custom fileds solution I found elsewhere with this one, including the extra amend by shauno. Instead of my images linking to a post they do not link at all. When you click them it activates the next slide. This makes me think that perhaps I have selected something in the options that is overriding the custom fields. Or one of my other plugins is causing a conflict. * Also, when I look at the code using chrome developer tools, there is no link showing wrapped around the images. * In the fields for each image I have simply inserted a standard google url: [http://www.google.co.uk](http://www.google.co.uk) * Is this correct or do you also need the ‘href’ or to include a complete link code including the ‘img src’ etc? * The development url is: * [http://www.atmosoft.co.uk](http://www.atmosoft.co.uk) * Any help would be gratefully received! * Superfried * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Theme overriding wordpress?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-overriding-wordpress/) * Thread Starter [superfried](https://wordpress.org/support/users/superfried/) * (@superfried) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-overriding-wordpress/#post-2059815) * Can anyone help me please?
