    nice solution,
    I will test it.

    I have not very fast internet, it works ok.

  2. Joshua says:

    Nice of you improving your portfolio but check:

    - Dynamic Content Gallery
    - Featured Content Gallery
    - FlashXML.net slider
    - Monoslide
    - Frontpage slideshow
    - etc, etc

  3. Brad Miller says:

    The Super Transition worked well “out of the box”, but not the superb.

    All I got was errors. Do I have to manually place an xml or other command code anywhere, or does it automatically place the files in the appropriate places?

      Hi gray, use the wp media upload option to upload your images, and add the url into this plugin image management area.

    How do I remove the hyperlink from the images. I don’t want you to be able to click on them. Please help.

    • Admin says:

      use “#” this in the hyperlink text box.

      • Mavent says:

        Except, of course, that using “#” DOESN’T remove the hyperlink. It just directs it back to the same page. Which is NOT what he (or I) want. Holy crap, is it really THAT hard to understand that some of us just want a slide show? A slideshow WITHOUT links, thumbnails, and all the other bullshit that people insist on loading into these plugins?

  7. Dee says:

    Can this slider be styled? If so, what are the div IDs and Classes? I’ve tried the following:

    Thanks!

    how to i use several instances of this plugin? I want to use it 4 times in my sidebar?

  11. Rob says:

    Love the plugin. Exactly what I was looking for. I can’t seem to figure out how to center it though… I’m fairly new to php, but can stumble my way through it… I tried to align the DIV that houses the slideshow to the center, but that just broke the plugin… any help would be graciously accepted…

  12. Pan says:

    Thanks for the great plugin! Best I’ve used.

    Quick and only question – how do I disable image links all together? I currently have the urls on # but I don’t want the link function at all.

    fyi I’ve hardcoded the php in the template.

    thanks!

  13. Dan says:

    Hiya,

    I want to integrate your plugin in my website. I’m using Firefox. The ‘titles’ are not in sinc with the images. They are always 1 behind where they should be?

    Any Thoughts?

    Thanks.

  14. Matt says:

    When upload images and set up nothing comes up in slider, deleted old pics it came with, it worked when I installed but when i load my own pics nothing happens??

  15. nick says:

    Hi. All installed and running smoothly bar one thing…..it shows on top of my images when I click to enlarge any image on my site.

    Please help! My site is nearly finished!!!

    • Eric Hartley says:

      This is due to z-index issues. Check the values for the gallery plugin being used in the CSS (they often seem to be 100 or more), and set the div element which the slideshow sits in (fadeshow1) to a lower value. I solved this by adding to my theme:

      #fadeshow1 {
      z-index:99;
      }

  19. Han Solo says:

    I don’t understand how to configure this plugin and am having issues with it. I put the code on the page I want the slideshow to be on:
    [ssg-superb-slideshow=widget=250=200=2500=500=0=YES]

    Under the IMAGE MANAGEMENT option:

    Enter image url: (this i get, obviously)

    Enter Target Link: (Target link to the page I want the slideshow on?? I don’t understand.)

    Enter Target Option: ( _blank, _parent, _self, _new—pretty self explanitory)

    Enter image title: (I give the image a name?)

    Enter Gallery Type: (What are my choices? I put “page”?)

    Display Status (Yes/No—self explanitory)

    Display Order: (I get it, 1 ,2, 3, etc)

    I fill in the information, and I get an error:

    “No data available! use below form to create!”

    Please advise…. thanks!

    Adblock removes all your widgets in Safari. It might do that in all browers – I haven’t checked. Please fix this, because otherwise I can’t use these incredible widgets!!!

    I am using the shortcode version. Is there any way to turn OFF the image captions when using shortcode? I would much rather have the image captions be ONDEMAND.

  24. Andrea says:

    I am using this plugin and it works great. The only issue I have is that when members register on my site and go into adjust their profiles in WordPress, they have the ability to edit this slideshow plugin. The “Administrator -> Settings” shows up and is editable for members without Admin rights. Please help!

    Otherwise this is a great plugin!

  25. Abdelrahman says:

    Please help!

  26. Mert says:

    Can we increase the number of images to be displayed?It is limited to 5 only at the moment. Thanks in advance!

  27. jon says:

    I’m confused, Can there only be one instance of the slideshow?
    I see no way of creating new sideshows with different images. This is weird.

  28. jon says:

    the settings make no sense
    what’s the difference between image url and target link?
    How is one to know what is meant by “gallery type” and what are the options? there;s none listed.
    And what does “display status” mean?

  29. Hans says:

    How can I align the text?

    in the js file i tried:

    .eq(1).css({color:’#E2E2E2′, align:’left’}).html(setting.closebutton + setting.longestdesc).end()

    But nothing happens. Anyone who knows how to fix this?

  30. philip says:

    hi,

    any post which displays your slideshow (even on a hidden “private” post), prevents my custom menu from working, i.e. the dropdown no longer drops down at all.

    you know what this might be about and/or how to fix it?

    thanks,
    philip

    Thanks for nice plugin.
    Is there any way to use Unicode in image title and gallery name field?

  33. Nina says:

    I love your plug-in, but would really appreciate the option to have it load with a WHITE background first. My page background is white, and it looks really weird to have this big, black rectangle in the middle of the page.

    Thanks for considering this possibility!

    • Joseph Tame says:

      Nina, you can change the background to white. Just replace the three instances of ‘black’ to ‘white’ in superb-slideshow-gallery/inc/superb-slideshow-gallery.js

      • Kirsten says:

        For anyone else who reads this…only change the first two instances of the word “black”. The third one will make the peek-a-boo background to white and therefore invisible since the letters are also white. Hope this helps!

      • Carla says:

        Hi Joseph,

        Is this located in the style sheet?

    Dear friend Gopi,
    As they specified in formfilling job
    1. no computer knowledge is necessary
    2. just copy and pasting
    3. for each copy and paste we get Rs.2/-
    4. for each referal we get Rs.100/-

    But what they showned while registering is all boosting and actually that is not the reality it seems.
    Hence kindly guide me if this is the genuine or let us drop this.
    thank you

  35. Susan says:

    I have just installed this on my testbed site and am very happy with the results. It does exactly what I needed it to. Thanks for developing it!!

    I have one suggestion for future releases: Give us a way to name the photo for the admin list that doesn’t show up in the caption. I don’t need/want captions for these images in the slidehow itself but in leaving that field blank it gives me no way to determine which image is which on the Image Management page… other than clicking “Edit” on each image to see.

    How do i produce multiple slideshows on different pages

    • Robin says:

      I , too, have been looking all over trying to make multiple slideshows with specific content for different pages. Maybe I am missing something. Advice appreciated. Love this plugin. The one slideshow I have is very nice.

      • Becky says:

        This plugin is actually very simple to use although it’s a bit clunky in the setup because of the redundecy and the way some of the things are named; it’s not very clear.

        Here’s the lowdown with this plugin. It’s not as brain wracking as many people think, although it’s super easy to over think this one:

        Gallery Settings Page:
        1. the top half of the Gallery Settings Page is a waste of space. It’s really just an example for the actual code and changing anything in the top doesn’t change the “code” down below. It doesn’t seem to do or mean anything, nor does the “title” line at the top of the page. I thought maybe this plugin came with a sidebar widget, hence the need for title, but nope, it doesn’t. Don’t even bother looking the top part of the page. For me, it was the top part that confused me the most.
        2. In the bottom half of the Gallery Settings Page is some basic instructions written in gibberish. Not too useful unless you can read between the lines or spend enough time fiddling with this plugin to figure out what it does.
        3. If you want multiple galleries, use the shortcode in your posts and pages.
        4. All the magic is created in the Image Management Page and the short code.

        Image Management Page:
        1. Enter image url = WHERE IS THE PICTURE LOCATED ON THE INTERNET? PUT THE ADDRESS HERE. (example: This is the address for one of the images in the gallery at the top of this page…http://www.gopiplus.com/work/wp-content/uploads/pluginimages/600×400/600x400_1.jpg)
        2. Enter target link = WHEN SOMEONE CLICKS ON THE PICTURE, WHERE DO YOU WANT TO SEND THEM – It’s an image link (example: http://www.google.com)
        3. Enter target option =
        _blank loads the linked page/file in a new, unnamed browser window.
        _parent loads the linked page/file in the parent frameset or window of the frame that contains the link. If the frame containing the link is not nested, the linked page/file loads into the full browser window.
        _self loads the linked page/file in the same frame or window as the link.
        _new – I’ve been reading that this one isn’t W3C HTML Standards compliant but many browser are forgiving and allow it. Unless you really know what this one does since what I read could be outdated, stick with _blank
        4. Enter image title = THIS MEANS GIVE THE IMAGE A CAPTION. THE CAPTION IS THE WHITE WRITING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PICTURE.
        5. Enter gallery type (This is to group the images) – THIS ACTUALLY ISN’T TYPE, IT’S NAME. NAME YOUR GALLERY. WHATEVER PICTURES YOU ADD INTO THIS GALLERY, IS WHAT YOU’LL GET, WHEN YOU CALL IT UP USING THE SHORT CODE. (example: Let’s say I want 2 different galleries. motorcycles and cars. Whenever I set up a new picture, I’ll either put it in type, motorcycles or cars). Use the same “gallery type” name to group your pictures into your specific galleries.
        6. Display Status = DO YOU WANT THE PICTURE TO SHOW IN YOUR GALLERY, YES OR NO?
        7. Display Order = IF NOT SET TO RANDOM WHAT ORDER SHOULD THE PICTURE BE PLAYED IN. SHOULD IT COME 1ST, 2ND, 3RD, ETC.
        8. Insert Message button = THAT ACTUALLY MEANS SAVE.

        After you save, you’ll see what you just did and in which gallery you put your picture in.

        Make as many galleries as you want by naming them whatever you want. Just make sure in the type spot you put the appropriate gallery name for each picture. They gallery type, or name, is used to group the pictures together in the same gallery name.

        What the short code really means:
        [ssg-superb-slideshow=widget=250=200=2500=500=0=YES]

        1. ssg-superb-slideshow= THIS IS THE CODE THAT TELLS THE PLUGIN IT’S TIME TO WORK. GOTTA HAVE THIS SO DON’T CHANGE IT.
        2. widget= THIS ACTUALLY ISN’T A TYPE. IT’S A GALLERY NAME. IT WILL BE THE NAME OF YOUR SPECIFIC GALLERY. – You can edit this part in the code
        3. 250= WIDTH OF THE GALLERY – You can edit this part in the code
        4. 200= HEIGHT OF THE GALLERY – You can edit this part in the code
        5. 2500= HOW LONG WILL THE PICTURE DISPLAY IN MILLISECONDS (1000 milliseconds = 1 second/2500 milliseconds = 2.5 seconds) – You can edit this part in the code
        6. 500= HOW LONG DO YOU WANT THE TRANSITION OF THE PICTURES TO TAKE (500 milliseconds = half of a second) – You can edit this part in the code
        7. 0= HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU WANT THE GALLERY TO CYCLE THRU THE PICTURES (0 = INFINITY/1 = ONLY ONE TIME FROM BEGINNING TO END, THEN STOP ) – You can edit this part in the code
        8. YES = SHOW PICTURES IN THE GALLERY IN A RANDOM ORDER (NO = SHOW PICTURES IN THE ORDER YOU SPECIFY IN THE IMAGE MANAGEMENT PAGE) – You can edit this part in the code

        Using your galleries wherever you want:
        1. Using my example of motorcycles and cars, I’ll want to call up the right gallery into a page/post. To do this I’ll edit the code to either motorcycles or cars. My short code will look like this [ssg-superb-slideshow=motorcycles=250=200=2500=500=0=YES] or [ssg-superb-slideshow=cars=250=200=2500=500=0=YES]. The name might becase sensitive, I’m not sure.
        2. Put the short code in the page/post you want the gallery to show in. The gallery you specified in the code, is the gallery you’re gonna get.

        Hope this helps.

        I’m having some trouble with something and maybe someone has this figured out.

        The little graphics that come with the plugin, the x and the loading, there not show up in my installation although they are with the plugin files.

        Anyone have any idea how to make these work?

        Thanks

        • Murman says:

          Thank you Becky! But I still can’t figure out how to changes images if I paste the short code into the posts or pages. For example:

          If I have a slide show in the sidebar with image1.jpg, image2.jpg, image3.jpg, image4.jpg

          And another slide show in the page, how do I change the images to image5.jpg, image6.jpg, image7.jpg, image8.jpg?

          Is it done within the sortcode, the admin pages, or ???
          TIA for any feedback. Nice widget, thanks again.

          • Murman says:

            I figured it out (I think!). If you want multiple slide shows either on one page or multiple pages or whatever, you have to fill in the “Type (This field is to group the images)” box with a unique name for each slideshow, right? So if you have 4 images in a slideshow that you call “slideshow1″, put “slideshow1″ in the “Type” box for each image. So if you have 5 images in a slideshow that you call “slideshow2″, put “slideshow2″ in the “Type” box for those images, and place the short code in the location you want it on your pages or posts. It’s pretty confusing, but it works. In full agreement for future need for loading/configuring multiple images.

            WHAT I CAN’T FIGURE OUT…
            How do you control the “Description Option” in multiple slide shows. I see no way to do that in either the admin Settings/Gallery Settings or the short code. My desire would be to have a setting other than ondemand or always, such as “never”. TIA for any help!

  37. Dee says:

    Becky, that was an excellent breakdown on how to get the slider to work. Thanks!

  38. eric says:

    This plugin is one of the best there is! I know because I have spent the last 48 hours playing with over 15 of them. This one for sure is the best for widgets. When I say best, I mean for a slideshow. If you are looking for something other than a slideshow, then this may not be it. Not only can this plugin work in a widget, page or post, but it can be linked to where ever you like. A huge advantage. On a scale of 1-10, this is a 20. Thanks.

  39. Happeh says:

    How do you make it work with multiple widgets? There is only one superb slider widget so I am assuming you are inserting the shortcode in a text widget?

    If I try that the text widget prints out the shortcode instead of processing it.

    Tips would be greatly appreciated!

  40. Kenan says:

    Instead of having a black background before the images load, is it possible to insert text? Like “loading…” for example? Or maybe a small image with that says loading?

    Thanks in advance,

    Where is ADMIN?

  50. kg69design says:

    And one more:
    1. target option makes HTML Invalid if it is STRICT DOCTYPE
    2. it’s “very funny” to upload 20 or more pictures one-by-one….. Plugin realy needs to have an apportunity to upload pictures from folder.

      If i set retrieve from folder directly. some user wrongly update the plugin directly from word-press directory (if i published new version). so they lost all the existing images..

    hi there,

    how can I place the slideshow behind other objects? Please take a look here: http://9punkt.pl/projekt/mtblanc, it comes in front of everything which you can only see after you click on a gallery pictures and run lightbox effect. The banners are in front of it, which loox rather unacceptable. Is there a way to change it?

    Hi,

    There is a conflict between Superb Slideshow Gallery and Cimy Header Image Rotator

    “So, I’ve figured out that when the “superb slideshow gallery” is activated “Cimy Header Image Rotator” stops working. Any body have a strategy to fix this?”

    Would someone be able to tell me how to center the slideshow within a div? I tried:

    [ssg-superb-slideshow=lefttest=250=200=2500=500=0=YES]

    that moves the slideshow to the center of the div, but it also bumps the images within the slideshow div to the right

      In longhand,without the normal angle brackets it was CENTER (enclosed with angle brackets) before the [ssg-superb-slideshow=lefttest=250=200=2500=500=0=YES] and /CENTER (enclosed with angle brackets) afterwards. Thanks

    Is there any way insert more than one php file with the shortcode configuration into a template file?

    • Admin says:

      Yes, add the short code 2 times.

      • Paco Delacroix says:

        Thanks for your quick response. I saw that, and it is great. But I need to add two slideshows in the index.php as php code and not as shortcode (for pages and posts).

        • Gopi R says:

          With PHP code: we can add only one time. bcos in the code i have fixed the div name. u can change ur self by update the div name in the main plugin php file ( search “ssg_show” this function and update the div name)

    Is it possible to make a slideshow with a set of pictures instead of adding one photo at a time.. -)

    hi there,

    how can I place the slideshow behind other objects? Please take a look here: http://9punkt.pl/projekt/mtblanc, it comes in front of everything which you can only see after you click on a gallery pictures and run lightbox effect. The banners are in front of it, which loox rather unacceptable. Is there a way to change it?

    thanks in advance :)

    Great slideshow plugin! Works correctly as a widget on the right sidebar of a page (Vigilante theme). However, when I deactivate it as a widget and embed the following short code in the page body text instead, the gallery width is only about 250 pixels and the pictures don’t load…

    [ssg-superb-slideshow=gym-gallery=500=500=5000=500=0=NO]

    Did I miss something?

    (Thanks!)

    • Admin says:

      Just take view source and check all JS rendered properly… also when u paste this short code in the editor use HTML version.

      • Gary says:

        Thanks for the quick response!

        I did use the HTML view in the editor when I added the short code…

        [ssg-superb-slideshow=gym-gallery=500=500=5000=500=0=NO]

        Here is the JS line generated from it…

        var mygallery=new SuperbSlideshowGallery({wrapperid: “gym”, dimensions: [250, 500], imagearray: [ ],displaymode: {type:”auto”, pause:500, cycles:500, wraparound:false}, persist: false, fadeduration: 5000, descreveal: “peek-a-boo”,togglerid: “”})

        It appears that something is changing the width to 250 in addition to whatever is causing the image load problem. Again, it works fine as a widget on the sidebar.

        I have this change up on the “live” site temporarily if you wanted to take a look. The gallery instance is mixed in with a bunch of static pictures. Here’s the page link…

        One other thing, I just noticed that the fade duration (500 ms) and the pause (5000 ms) appear to be reversed in the generated JS…

        Thanks again for looking at this!

    • Gary says:

      ‘Had to get this running today. Found a work-around. Since using the plugin as a widget seemed to work, I grabbed the generated JS from the sidebar and placed it in the page body. It looked correctly formed and worked as required.

      It appears that there is an issue here with the generated JS when short code is placed in the page body. Likely, the short code is not being parsed correctly or something else is stepping on it.

  81. Luigi Rotelli says:

    Dear Gopi,
    Superb slideshow gallery 4.0 is causing a massive conflict with WordPress 3.2.1 when editing posts. It is messing the tool bar with HTML tool bar togheter, not allowing to upload multiple images and when you try to create a link it exits the editing page without saving. I deactivated the plugin and things went back to normal again.
    Problem is possibly related to the way you load JS file ( wp_register_script method)
    On http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script
    I found a possible solution:
    “This bit of code may cause problems when editing posts, pages, or links. To solve the issue…”
    Best regards,
    Luigi

  82. Atavius says:

    Hi Gopi,
    I really like your plugin but I have one problem question about it. I have site with multiple sidebars so I would like to know if it is possible to have multiple instances of widget superb slideshow gallery? Right now it can be used only once – I even tried editing code itself but somehow I still didn’t managed to create another instance of it which seems kinda strange to me since Widget API should support this out of the box. So it is possible or not?

  83. mirjam says:

    Hello,

    Thanks for your wonderful plugin. Lately I have the problem that my slideshow is showing a black background, while my page is white. I’ve changed it and now it was black again. Is it possible to change the code by update to have a transparent background instead of black? Otherwise I’ll have to change it every time i update.

    Thanks already,

    Mirjam

  85. Aaron says:

    Have had this slideshow installed since January on a client site (ffburn.org).

    Sometime since yesterday afternoon it’s disappeared, leaving the container div empty in (at least) Safari 5.x and Firefox on Mac.

    Applied initially via widget, but just tried it with direct php method and no difference.

    Settings are all the same as before (images are dbl-checked to be labelled with show category, etc) so not sure what’s up.

    Any help please?

  86. Mavent says:

    As I mentioned elsewhere, it would be incredibly nice to have the option to NOT hyperlink the images. Putting in “#” is not a solution. It still hyperlinks the images, albeit to nowhere. The Hand Icon still appears, and if people click the entire page reloads.

  87. Mavent says:

    Just out of curiosity, is anyone still developing this? Because if they are, I suggest they read Becky’s post, and then fix the interface. Also, there needs to be an option to disable the “pause on mouseover”. Lord, how I wish I could find a simple slideshow that JUST SHOWS SLIDES.

    “you can change the background to white. Just replace the three instances of ‘black’ to ‘white’ in superb-slideshow-gallery/inc/superb-slideshow-gallery”

    I can’t find this anywhere. Is it in the CSS sheet?

    Manufacturing in the USA needs to improve, especially auger fillers and packaging machines.

  91. Kirsten says:

    Carla: Click on Plugins in WordPress, then click on click on “edit” under the Superb slideshow gallery plugin.

    On the right of the plugin editot page click on: “superb-slideshow-gallery/inc/superb-slideshow-gallery”

    When that page opens use Control + F to search the page for the word “black”. You will find three ocurrences.

    Change the first two ocurrences to “white”.

    Hope this helps!

  92. Kirsten says:

    I’ve upgraded to the newest version of this plugin and thank God my dropdown menu is now working on the page with the slideshow.

    Only one small issue. The dropdown menu is going behind the slideshow and cutting off the bottom.

    How do I get the dropdown menu to go over/ in front of the slideshow?

    Thanks to anyone who can help.

  93. Kirsten says:

    In case anyone else is having this problem with the slideshow and drop down menu I figured it out.

    In the CSS do a page search (Control + F) for the word index to locate your z-index under the menubar section. If you have two menus this should appear twice.

    Change the z-index of both menu bars to 1010.

    This worked for me…Thank God!

  97. Peter says:

    So, I was having problems with the Update/Insert buttons not working to update the images. Here’s the fix.

    In the superb-slideshow-gallery/inc/setting.js file, the first function is ssg_submit()

    Out of the box all it does it check to see if all the fields are filled in, it doesn’t actually submit anything, so at the botton of the function I added:

    else
    {
    document.ssg_form.action=”options-general.php?page=superb-slideshow-gallery/image-management.php&AC=ADD&DID=”+document.ssg_form.ssg_id.value;
    document.ssg_form.submit();
    }

    Viola, fixed.

    Note: to make things easier on the users I also recommend changing the text from “enter the gallery type” to “enter the gallery name” and changing the associated line in image-management.php from “Enter gallery type (This is to group the images)” to “Enter gallery name (this is to group the images)”, and in the same file change “Insert Message” to “Insert Image” and “Update Message” to “Update Image”.

    One last change that I’d recommend: change the Target option from a text input to a select statement:
    “>
    Select
    <option value='_blank' >Blank Page
    <option value='_parent' >Parent Page
    <option value='_self' >Same Page
    <option value='_new' >New Page

    It’d be really nice if these changes were incorporated into the plugin.

  98. Peter says:

    Oh, one more thing I’ve changed, in order to provide Alt tags so it’s easier for blind readers to navigate the site I changed the following code in the superb-slideshow-gallery.js file:

    In the
    getSlideHTML:function(imgelement){

    I changed
    ` layerHTML+=’\n’
    `
    to
    `
    layerHTML+=’\n’
    `
    This takes the image title and displays it as an alt tag. For better or worse, all of the image titles for all of the images in the gallery will be displayed at once.

    Again, it’d be nice if Alt Tags were incorporated into the main plugin.

    [...] Superb Slideshow — An optimistic name… This one looked great to me; comfortable in a widget or in a post, and it has a nice option for partially-opaque section on the bottom of each image for a title or description.  However, I was disappointed upon examination to discover that it doesn’t interface with the WordPress Gallery in any way… In fact, I couldn’t figure out how to get more than one “Superb Slideshow” onto a website at all.  (Not one-per-post; I mean one-per-site!)  On his home page, he has some views with multiple “Superb Slideshows” running, so perhaps there’s a way.  But it definitely requires more tinkering than the tools I listed above.  I could not get this tool to work correctly, and the author has a message on his website saying he’s unavailable for a month and a half.  http://www.gopiplus.com/work/2010/10/10/superb-slideshow-gallery/ [...]

    • angioletto says:

      @ Harmony.
      I’m not a programmer but I think you can try one of these:
      1) install PHP Code Widget plugin, so you can use the php code Gopi suggests to put Superb slideshow gallery in your sidebar inserting the php code in a text widget;
      2) install Shortcodes in Sidebar plugin so you can use the shortcode Gopi suggests [ssg-superb-slideshow=page=600=400=2500=500=0=YES] to put Superb slideshow gallery in your sidebar inserting the shortcode in a text widget.
      Hope it helps! ;)

      @ Gopi
      Using your Superb slideshow gallery in a local site and I need to put the sliding images the maximum width of the div (main content) without any padding/margin around images. I replaced with “white” the 3 instances where it was “black” but this is only a partial solution, not good to align images with the page layout.
      Thank u for your reply.
