what code should be used ?
I cannot find your live demo on how to load pictures for this plugin. excuse my ignorance but I cannot understand how to change the images. do you have a video that shows what to do as I am lost on how to install pictures in a path
In the admin we have option to set the image file folder location. new version available

The difference is this automatically retrieve image files from specified location and the new plugin we have separate image management page.
Hi,
I would love to install this plugin twice in one sidebar. My client would like to have two different blocks showing 2 different rotating galleries. Any way to do this?
Thanks
At present we cant add two drop in galley in the widget area. lots of image gallery available in this website, so use any other for send purpose.
Hi,
I’d like to put a border box on the widget, any advice on what line to enter the code on, or what the code I would use would be?
I’m willing to experiment, but a push in the right direction would be appreciated.
I love the slideshow but how do i get the target URL to open in the same window and not a new one???

I really like this particular area, Quite possibly into web marketing/SEO. Have you ever heard from meetup.com? I find that there are regularly several virtuous possibilities to fulfill and netwoork with others to our destinations. You need to have a look at it should you become time.
hi
I just upgraded this plugin (via automatic update) & it deleted all the photos in the plugins folder! I had them backed up but maybe there should be a warning?

Hi,
I love this plugin–it works like a dream. The only thing I would ask for (extra) is the choice to have images appear in random order.

Make sure its a .jpg picture. I loaded a .png file into the gallery and it didn’t work. I changed the extension to .jpg everything worked fine. hope this helps to those who are having trouble viewing there pics on the website.
And make sure your .jpg file is not a .JPG file. And make sure your files are the same size as the image on the sidebar. This will not reformat the size of the images.
It doesn’t have to be same size, it will work if they are different sizes, it just looks nicer if you have it the same size.
Hi Gopi thanks for your work.
I’m wondering how can I erase all references to the tittle in the widget, I’m using a Rockettheme template and since the widget does not allow me to specify the style I’m moding the PHP but would be nice if you give me a clue.
NOW VERSION 4.0 AVAILABLE.
Hi you do not respond to edward cullom, I have the same problem

nevermind… I saw how to add them (no “Add” button… just a blank field)
Information is power and now I’m a !@#$ing daicttor.

I love the plugin, the only problem is that it doesn’t place the images in the right order. The first run it goes in the order I put them in inside the directory, but then it starts going randomly.
I think you should make it so that you can put in the url for individual images, and select which order they repeat in.
