Works great, thank you
You’re welcome.
An excellent start to a great plugin! I’m so glad that there’s a slider plugin that DOESNT force you to use featured pages or posts.
I’d like to see multiple sliders, show on pages/page ids (comma delimited list for each slider?)
of course, html markup in the text as well.
Last of all, I’d like to see the ability to use pictures from the media library and the ability to set teh image directory: wp-contents/uploads/s3Slider instead of the plugin directory?
Thanks again for a great plugin!
Definitively there’s a lot to be done yet. The main purpose (as you emphasize) is the ability to the user to set his own stuff on the slider.
I imagine a limited HTML markup. There’s no sense to define scripts and other things on the slider text.
I plan that the photos from media library will be the only way of uploading stuff instead of doing an extra folder for that.
Thanks for your points. They’re great ideas too.

Olá Vinicius, seu pluginé muito bom, só que não estou conseguindo trabalhar com ele já que aparece a seguinte menagem:
Warning: fileperms() [function.fileperms]: stat failed for /home/ramirob/public_html/wp-content/plugins/s3slider/files/ in /home/ramirob/public_html/wp-content/plugins/s3slider-plugin/s3slider-panel.php on line 160
Warning: The permissions to the directory /home/ramirob/public_html/wp-content/plugins/s3slider/files/ are invalid. Set them to 777 to be able to upload files.
Já mudei para 777 as permições das pastas mais continua a mesma mensagem. Que vocÊ acha que posso fazer?
Obrigado e abraços, Ramiro.
resolvido, descarreguei o zip desde aqui e deu tudo certo, agora só não cosigo escrever textos nos banners.
Obrigado
Oi Ramiro.
Algumas pessoas reclamaram dos textos também. Em uma próxima versão vou corrigir isso.
Abraços!
Hi
Dont know if im using a newer version of wordpress that
this plugin is not made for but I keep getting the same 777 prob
as @Ramiro
Any way to fix this?
All my file permissions are already on 777
Thanks
Hi Jovan.
Did you set the permissions of the “files” folder? The plugin needs it to upload the images.
Thanks.
Hey
I solved it by downloading your version on this website
originally I got it from the wordpress.org site…must be a glitch
in that file!
Great Plugin!!
Thanks!:)
Nice! I’m sending the file from here to there. I’ll also keep only the WordPress.org link to avoid this kind of difference between files.
If there’s an error, it must be only one.
Thanks!
Hi Vinícius,
Thanks for a great plugin
I noticed that this wouldn’t work on older versions of wordpress due to your use of the function plugins_url().. Which isn’t defined in older WordPress versions.. Therefore, I’ve made a small change to all your plugins_url() function..
by creating a new function called get_plugin_url():
function get_plugin_url() {
// WP < 2.6
if ( !function_exists('plugins_url') )
return get_option('siteurl') . '/wp-content/plugins/' . plugin_basename(dirname(__FILE__));
return plugins_url(plugin_basename(dirname(__FILE__)));
}
after that, I changed all your use of plugins_url function to get_plugin_url() instead.. as this is for backward compatibility sake
Thanks though and it works great
krizalis
Hi Krizalis. Great work!
Please send me the files you changed on viniciusandre © gmail.com that I’ll put up the 0.02 version along with other minor modifications.
Thanks!
Hi Vinícius,
It seems I’ve ran into a problem after changing my own get_plugin_url function.. I think I need some time to solve the plugin path problem..
Sorry!
krizalis
No worries.
I can’t work on this right now, so as long as you finish your path correction stuff, just send me and I’ll put on the SVN.
That’s a fairly more intelligent way of getting the paths.
Thanks for now!
Hi Vinícius,
I’ve edited the plugin and solved the path problem for backward compatibility.. also.. I noticed that updating the options for the slider width height and time didnt work.. so I also took the effort to add that into the code.. and it works nicely on my site..
I will send the files to your email.. Maybe you should check my codes just for “consistencies and good coding standards”
JingKai
It seems OK to me. Version 0.02 up!
Thanks again for this damn nice work.
Thanks Vinícius Massuchetto
Really appreciate your work on the plugin
Hi There,
This looks really promising, thanks for your excellent work !
But I have a couple of small problems.
1) When I add the description it only shows 0 ( zero )
( The order field and the description seem to be confused !)
2) When I change any of the options ( width, height etc… ) they are not remembered. They go back to default 500, 300, 3000 values.
Hope you can help – Dave Porter
Hi Dave.
The “0″ thing is an already known bug. I’ll try to fix it as soon as I can. The options stuff is a result of the last fix I did – ironically, I know. I’ll have to fix it soon too.
Thanks for your report.
Thanks for getting back….
I was able to edit the values in the mySQL database using PHPMyAdmin for now, but look forward to the next release…
regards, Dave
Hi Dave. It seems the option bug is now fixed. Try updating the plugin version.
Nice plugin, just posting to talk about a few bugs and requests, that you probably already know about.
Bugs or problems:
- I also have the “0″ problem in the text field of the images.
- The icon next to the S3Slider menu in the Dashboard doesn’t appear. Only referenced as “/img/menu.gif” in the src, it should have the full path with abspath.
- Version in WordPress Plugin Repository is still 0.1.
- Version in Plugin menu inside WordPress is still 0.1, though the readme.txt does mention 0.2.
- I had the Options problem too, but it looks that now it remembers the dimensions and time correctly.
Requests:
It will be nice to:
- Have a title and a text field. Where the title will show bold.
- In case of editing an image, that the crop is remembered. It shouldn’t ask to be done again by default.
- Be able to use the wp-content folder, or better a sub-folder inside it, to upload files.
Dreaming:
It will be incredible if:
- We could scan a category and pull up the post titles, image and short version text to make the gallery.
- We could choose posts or pages to do the same.
Hope it helps.
Good luck!
Thanks for your detailed return about the plugin, and sorry for all these errors too. You know… we run out of time all the time. =)
I did some small fixes now, and I’m going to make some major changes soon.
That helps a lot, indeed.
Thanks again.
Having a couple of problems:
1. The span description appears on the left side of the image instead of from the bottom, I’m also unable to set the text to anything other than 0 as others have said.
2. The plugin doesn’t appear to be working in IE8. Firefox and IE8(-Compatibility View) work. Any ideas why this is happening?
The text problem seems to be fixed on 0.03.
Unfortunately I don’t have how to develop with IE8 right now. I would really appreciate any help around this.
Thanks.
Were can I find Version 0.02 ?
Hi!
It’s on the WordPress.org link.
I just noticed that I didn’t changed the value on the plugin header.
Thanks!
Just replace this line of code $values_types = array(‘%d’,'%d’,'%d’,'%d’);
to : $values_types = array(‘%d’,'%d’,'%d’,'%d’,'%s’,'%s’);
in s3slider-panel.php
on line 56
Thanks
Thanks, Bojan.
I have done the file formats for png and gif , you can contact me on
bojan.josifoski@yahoo.com
Thanks
Bojan
I’m mailing you, so you can send me your improvements.
Nice work! Thanks!
I have an idea for the change order , it could be drag and drop interface it will make the plug in more accessible in terms of UI
Hello,
When you said:
Place something like this in your template
must I have to put it there ( I m using kubrick theme) if I want to see the slider only on my home page ?:
and if I want into a post ?
Sorry I dont know !(1 month on wordpress)
All the best,
Alex
Hi Alex.
To view only in a single post you’ll probably want to check through an IF if the page has the ID you want, or even create a meta_value for the posts.
To view into the home page just look for the “index.php” file and put it there.
You’ll have to be a little bit familiar with PHP programming to do so.
Hope it helps.
Vinicius
Many thanks for the time and effort both the plugin developer and the original developer did.
Namaste
You’re welcome.
Namaste.
I wanted to show this banner only in home page. When i add it in template it is displayed in all the pages. How to fix this ?
Which template file did you put it in? In your them directory you should have several,(index.php, single.php, archive.php etc). If you only want it to show on your front page you should place it within index.php or home.php .

Sorry, Sakthi, but I did not understand where’s the S3Slider plugin on your PHP code.
Hello,
Is there a way to put the images in the slider without using the crop??
(cause I already resized my photo’s) for better quality
Greetings from the netherlands
Hi Astrid.
Sorry, but you must pass throught `crop` to put your photo on the slider. Unless you know some PHP, you can hack the plugin code to skip this step.
Perhaps, you can upload your pre-sampled image and then just maximize the crop area.
I got some deutsch friends. They take care of an organization I worked in India. http://www.karunasociety.org
Greetings from Brazil. =)
Merci !!!
j’attend avec impatience la prochaine version !!!
Hi Vincent
I have a few suggestions. If i can get them done before your next update i will send you the code.
1) Use the wp-enque function to link to jquery and the s3slider js.Should stop the jquery library being loaded twice, also set it to load in the footer.
2) Enable the abilty for pictures themselves to link to posts/pages/ random urls.
3) Enable the ability to add hyperlinks within the input boxes themselves. My hyperlinks seem to acquire extra slashes every-time i save them.
I currently use a function from wprecipes(?) that gets the first image from a post in conjunction with timthumb to create thumbnails. You could add the option to use a “featured category”, and the gallery could be generated from the images, titles and excerpts of the posts.
Just some ideas, hope they help. The top three i am in need of so i will try do myself, but i think you would do a better job
Namaste
Hi Zack.
It’s Vinicius, or Vini, or whatever.
I understand the problems for English speakers to correctly say my name.
The ideas you gave are awesome. If you ever get to make them, just let us know.
I didn’t use so many WP features on upload and everything else because I needed the cropper. I’m not too sure how to apply it on the standard upload stuff.
Perhaps, it’s not hard to make the plugin get the images from posts. All we have to do is to `wpdb_insert` a new row on the `wp_s3slider` table when something is checked, saved, etc.
Thanks for everything!
Vinicius
Hi,
I would like to opt for hyperlinks as well, would be damn handy!
That would certainly rock, but I’m now sure if the S3Slider will allow us to insert links on the text.
Maybe we can emulate links through JavaScript events ´onMouseOver´ and ´onClick´, but that will require some regexp coding.
Fantastic plugin! However, the pictures that I crop end up in very bad quality. Is there a way to stop this?
Yes there is.
On lines 52, 59 an 66 of the `s3slider_panel.php` file change the functions (respectively):
imagejpeg($s3s_image_crop,$s3s_filesdir.$_POST['s3slider_file_id'].’_s.’.$_POST['s3slider_file_type']);
imagepng($s3s_image_crop,$s3s_filesdir.$_POST['s3slider_file_id'].’_s.’.$_POST['s3slider_file_type']);
imagegif($s3s_image_crop,$s3s_filesdir.$_POST['s3slider_file_id'].’_s.’.$_POST['s3slider_file_type']);
To:
image[format]($s3s_image_crop,$s3s_filesdir.$_POST['s3slider_file_id'].’_s.’.$_POST['s3slider_file_type'], [quality from 0 to 100]);
e.g (in your case):
image[format]($s3s_image_crop,$s3s_filesdir.$_POST['s3slider_file_id'].’_s.’.$_POST['s3slider_file_type'], 100);
Hope it helps. =D
Fantastic! ;D
Nice!
Let me know if the conversion took too long to be completed, or even if the final file got too big.
Anyway, all you have to do is change that value (PHP has a standard one that I don’t remeber, have to see on the manuals).
hello, i use your plugin but ,i have a few questions ………
- it’s possible —> remplace a action with the mousse on image for don’t stop a cycle slider ?
- have you planned to add buttons of the type [1] [2] [3] [4] or the [back] [next] to the next version ?
good plugin continue
thx (sorry for my english)
Hi Anthony.
I assure you that both of your ideas are possible, and are very good ideas too. Tough, I can’t code these options on the moment.
I can say that they depend much more of Javascript than PHP, so the original S3Slider Javascript framework.
Vinicius
Hi guys,
First off great job converting s3Slider to a wordpress plugin. However I’m having a bit of an issue with uploading JPGs and PNG. Only GIF is working? What could be the problem?
tnx david
Hi David.
It’s a bit hard to guess what’s happening. If I’m not wrong, IE and Firefox have different interpretations for file types, specially images.
What’s your browser? Have you tried Firefox?
Hi.
I tried IE, FF and Chrome. None of em work….:(
its weird because i seem to be the only one…..i scrolled thru this page, but couldnt find anyone else with the same issue.
That’s true.
That can be something with the server too. Do you know if it’s a Unix or Windows server?
As long as your problem seems to be specific, we need some debugging of it to find out what’s happening.
t would be nice if you could paste the output of ´print_r($_FILES)´ and ´print_r($_SERVER)´.
Just put this on the footer of ´s3slider_panel.php´
print_r($_FILES);
print_r($_SERVER);
Go to http://codepaste.org and paste the huge ammount of strange text you’ll see, and send us the link.
Maybe with that we can help you.
Hi, I’ve had a stupid problem tonight, not sure but yours might be the same.
Have you tried increasing the memory limit from 32MB to 64MB?
That’s in root/wp-settings.php
Hi Vinicius I can’t seem to get the slideshow to display everythgin seems to be set up correctly and then on the page it just won’t show my images. When I inspect the page I can see the “banner” is there in the correct size and the li contains all my images, but it’s just not displaying them. Can you take a look if you get a second.
http://wickcreative.com/?page_id=270
Thanks
Hi Scottywic, that can be due to a lot of things.
I saw on your code that you’re already running a jQuery instance. jQuery will fail to load twice and on different “noConflict” calls.
Most probably you’ll have to do some JavaScript hacking to get the slider working on this page.
Vinicius
It keeps telling me that it only accepts jpg, gif and png files, but when I try to upload files with those formats it still give the message.
This bug has been reported some times. We’ll try to fix it on the next version.
Thanks!
Vini, I would like to see a bulk uploader and or the ability to select images in wpmedia. I know you created to use cropping but surely photos are standard sized and we could edit before posting. Also how about a random start or shuffle mode so each instance of hitting web page does not look the same. ta ~ Steve
Hi Steve.
This plugin was designed to the lower level user (the one that don’t know how to edit photos). I can add and “auto crop” function, then.
Random start is quite easy too. Nice suggestion.
Thanks!
Hi!
Great plugin!
Only one little thing bothers me – it makes my website invalid.
I’m hoping that future releases of the plugin will not harm HTML Validation.
Thanks!
Keep up the great work!
Thanks for reporting this.
Hello. Man what a relief! Very excited to come across this. In fact I thought it was acting screwy at first but it was a simple conflict with the div id of banner
So I simply changed my logo’s div name. Yours deserves it more
Well, that’s a common issue actually. That’s important because I never thought about the style names. On next versions I will change these names to avoid conflicts between existing and commonly used style names.
Thanks!
Hi great plugin but i have one small problem, i am using drop down navigation and the drop down sits behind the slider making the dropdown useless.
How can i fix it so the drop down can go over the slider?
Any help would be appreciated!
Great work!
Hi Benny.
You’re most likely having a conflict between jQuery calls.
You can find and comment the line that calls jQuery on your theme. Try to do this specifically on the page that S3Slider is, or you’ll disable the dropdown on the entire theme.
Thanks.
Hi! I am having this same problem. It is only in IE 6 and IE 7 that I am seeing it, the slider is appearing above the drop down navigation. There is one little bit I am using for the drop down:
<!–
startList = function() {
if (document.all&&document.getElementById) {
navRoot = document.getElementById(“menu”);
for (i=0; i
And that is in the header, so I’m not sure what you mean by commenting out the line to jQuery. I’ve been trying to set the z-index of various divs and that doesn’t seem to be helping at all. Any ideas?
Thank you so much, I think this is an excellent plugin and I really want to be able to use it.
… the code was cut off in my comment, this is what is inside the javascript tags in my header, in case that is what is making a difference:
startList = function() {
if (document.all&&document.getElementById) {
navRoot = document.getElementById(“menu”);
for (i=0; i<navRoot.childNodes.length; i++) {
node = navRoot.childNodes[i];
if (node.nodeName==”LI”) {
node.onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=” over”;
}
node.onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(” over”, “”);
}
}
}
}
}
window.onload=startList;
Hello,
I havent’ read all the above comments so this suggestion may have already been made…
Can I suggest adding stripslashes() to line 162 of s3slider.php. This will then enable links to render correctly.
Thanks.
Great plugin by the way…
Somebody help me?
I got a problem with this plug-in. I put this plu-in in to my header but a lot of people see the picture for only a half and not the hole picture take a look at my website en reply this please?
Hi Ritchie.
This can be due to a variety of problems.
Take care about the size of the images you’re using.
Also, if you’re not being able to upload, all I can suggest is to uninstall the plugin, drop the table on your database and install it again.
Sorry for the late reply. It’s Brazilian Carnival. =D
Vini
Good job. Thanks..
no response??
Hi Vini.
Your plugin is simple, easy to use and the CSS is easy to customize.
I like it a lot. But there is a bug with WordPress 2.9.2 regarding headers. When the plugin is activated and a header is edited through the admin (post or page) this message error comes out:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at “root”/wp-content/plugins/s3slider-plugin/s3slider.php:357) in “root”l/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 868
Any idea how to fix it?
Thanks,
Diego
Hi Diego.
What do you mean by “a header is edited through the admin” ?
Sorry if I misunderstood it.
Thanks.
Hi Vini
This is the bug I am experiencing:
I downloaded, activated, installed and made it work on my homepage.
Everyhting running smoothly.
But when I go to the a post and change the current post tile, lets say from “Hello World” to “Hello Everybody” and hit the update button, I get the message:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at “root”/wp-content/plugins/s3slider-plugin/s3slider.php:357) in “root”l/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 868
I can’t see the administration panel nor the front end of the website.
Just a black screen with the error message.
I have to hit the browser’s back button until I am inside the administration panel, go to plugins and deactivate s3slider.
Everthing returns to normal, even the slider on the home is working.
Diego
Hi Diego.
Thanks for detailing everything this way.
I’m afraid I can’t help you right now because this is probably a bug coming from WP 2.9.2 integration, and I really don’t know when I’ll have some time to look on the code.
If that’s the case, you can keep activating and deactivating the plugin as you said, or even downgrade WordPress. Well… both are pretty awful, but works.
Thanks again
Vini
HI
First of all sorry about getting your name wrong, being English does not excuse lack of mindfulness
After starting a new project i remembered this plugin and decided to try update some of the features that had been asked for.
My modified version adds:
*Ability To add simple html in the text or headline, eg making the title a link (must use single quotes for now)
*Ability to make the image itself a link
*Option to easily change the quality of the images (applies to jpegs only)
*The s3slider.js is queued through wordpress’s system and loads wordpress’s default jquery package. Hopefully this will help clear up some javascript issues and make multiple s3slider’s easier to implement in future versions.
I will try work on the ‘featured post’ functionality as well.
Thanks again for the wonderful plugin. Messing around with it has been very educational.
I will email my modified version to you to look over, and if anyone needs the new functions immediately they can email me : z@zaybiz.com.
Namaste
Is there a way to have the slideshow load images randomly when the page is loaded?
Yes. There is.
Change “ORDER BY s3slider_order,s3slider_id” by “ORDER BY RAND()” on line 155 of the s3slider.php file.
That will ignore the order you set on the S3Slider panel and will display everything randomly.
Thank you sir! Much appreciated!
Hi. Im getting this Warning : The permissions to the directory /usr/www/users/treehoy/wp-content/plugins/s3slider-plugin/files/ are invalid. Set them to 777 to be able to upload files.
I read a previous guy had the same issue and downloaded the file from this site then it worked for him. However I am not having the same luck.
How do I set the permission to 777?
jeff
With an FTP client (like Yummy/Mac), navigate to the directory on your server and get info. You should be able to see the permissions. Change to 777.
Does that help?
Thanks for the help Jay Collier. Problem solved.
I used FileZilla as my FTP client, anyone who has similar issue select your root folder on your server and right click/ctrl click and you will see a permissions in drop down menu. Select and change.
Again Jay thank you for responding.

Alou, Vinicius!
Seguinte, administro um blog com vários autores, e gostaria que os Autores tivessem permissão para gerenciar o s3slider, e não somente o Administrador.
Gostaria de saber se é possível isso e como eu faço.
Já tentei alguns plugins para determinar as regras e permissões para cada grupo de usuários, porém não tive sucesso até agora.
Se for possível fazer isso, será uma enorme ajuda e, quem sabe, uma nova implementação no s3slider, que já é hiper-eficiente tal como está!
Obrigado,
WMK
This is a great plugin. Simple. Clean. Compatible.
I noticed that the overlay text extends outside the containing box. Here’s a fix (courtesy my colleague Joseph Kibe):
On line 88 of , you should subtract 20 (left padding+right padding) from the width of the box. The corrected code looks like this:
width:px;
Well, most of that was clipped! Let me try again:
In …/s3slider-plugin/s3slider.php, subtract 20 (left padding+right padding) from the width of the box. The corrected code looks like this:
width:<?php echo get_option(‘s3slider_width’)-20; ?>px;
hello, the plug worked great on my localhost but now after a new installation on my server side when i upload a picture from my computer i don’t see it and i can’t crop it so put it on line and make the plug working
Someone have an idea? Thanks
to complete, my localhost is on windows and my server is on linux
There is a problem. When the MAIN page of a site static, a plug-in transforms it into dynamical page with ARTICLES. ARTICLE section also remains on the URL. How to correct the given problem? A site on wordpress 2.9.2
I see that this is a common problem.
“Sorry. Only JPG GIF and PNG formats are supported”
When do you think it will be fixed?
Thanks
i have downloaded your plugin in wordpress site. (plugin version 0.05)
it runs well in my localhost, which is having WP V2.8.5.
but few days a go i tried to fix it to my site which is having WP V2.9.2
but this time it isn’t worked due to the following error
Warning : The permissions to the directory /home/content/i/n/c/incubatoradmin/html/wp-content/plugins/s3slider-plugin/files/ are invalid. Set them to 777 to be able to upload files.
i tried changing the folder permissions, but the result was same.
hope you will be able to give me a solution.
Hello, great plugin!
Does this plugin support multiple slideshows? This way I could use it on different pages with different images in each slideshow.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Hi Jeff.
I’m sorry. This feature is being requested for a while, but I can’t implement it yet.
Thanks for using the plugin, anyway.
Overall a good plugin, but then I found out that the script loads the css in the middle of the content source code disabling valid W3C coding and also means modifying the css is impossible without opening the core plugin files. I wish I knew how to convert this to the functions.php so it can load without being a “plugin”.
I know. I’m sorry I didn’t knew WordPress, PHP and CSS so well as I do now when I developed this plugin.
how to install on every page of his original gallery?
Your plugin – super!
Hi evgenyem. Tis feature was already requested, but I can’t implement it immediately, or soon. I’m sorry.
do you plan on fixing the CSS issue, and removing it from the core of the plugin, and perhaps also the HTML structure, so that styling works properly.
this plugin would be absolutely stellar with this fix. as it stands it’s too much of a hassle to edit, and not standards compliant.
please provide an estimated date for fixing these. thanks.
Hi Bryce. I’m sorry… no plans to rewrite the HTML parts of this plugin soon. If you want to do it yourself, I’ll be very happy in commiting that into the SVN. Many thanks.
Hi, I noticed that s3Slider came pre-packaged in my theme.
Business Company 1.1 by templatesquare
Do you have any resource or link describing customization to this package?
Also, I am trying to make it so that visitors to my site can view different images based on their location (e.g. Major US Cities). For example, if you land on my page and you are in Seattle, you will see a Seattle City picture, same for Chicago, Atlanta, etc.).
Any resource or knowledge on this?
You can bid on this project if you want:

Hi Rahil. That’s S3Slider plugin for WordPress, not the JS library itself. Please go to the S3Slider website for support.
Oi Vinicius!
Primeiro de tudo, seu plugin ficou muito bom. Eu agora estou tentando utiliza-lo no wordpress 3.1, e ele não funcionou. Abri o código para alterar, o erro acusado é
has_cap foi chamado com um argumento que está obsoleto desde a versão 2.0! O uso de níveis de usuário por plugins e temas está obsoleto. Use funções e permissões no lugar.
Alterei o arquivo s3slider.php mudando o add_menu_page
deixei o mesmo assim
add_menu_page( ‘s3slider’, ‘s3slider’,10,’administrador’, ‘s3slider’,'s3slider_panel’);
Eu ainda não consegui resolver o problema, você poderia me dizer se estou no caminho? (nunca havia programado para wordpress). Muito obrigado.
Vou dar uma olhada. Obrigado.
I want to different slider’s on diffenrent pages? is it possible to have multiple slider’s?
Thanks in advance
Multiple sliders is not supported yet. Sorry.
Thanks for using the plugin.
Vinicius, seu plugin é fera!!! Adorei!!!
Só tem 1 probleminha: não consigo mudar o tamanho… Troquei no arquivo s3slider.php, mas mesmo mudando, ele continua do mesmo tamanho. Como posso fazer isso corretamente?
Obrigada!

Hi,
I have a question to a strange dot…
When I add the slider, on the left side there is a gap, then a blue dot, a gap and then the image of the slide show. The dot also fades with the picture. Here is a screenshot: http://www.cala-corporate-design.de/screen-capture.png How can I remove the dot and the gap? After 4 hours seraching I couldn’t find anything in the code.
Thanks for your help

Is there a way to edit the white background between slides that occur? Can it be transparent or color changed?
Olá, ótimo plugin. Uma dúvida, como faz para mudar a área de crop ou simplesmente o desativar?
O crop é obrigatório. Você pode subir a imagem no tamanho certo e selecionar ela por inteiro. Para desativá-lo, você deverá modificar a seção javascript no código fonte mais o recebimento do $_POST de posições automaticamente.
Hello,
I have the Problem that my provider doesn’t allow to change the permission. Is there any workaround?
The pictures are in the right size and have the right name (It works on another account so I just gave them the same name and made the uplooad vie FTP)
The gallery still cannot find the files…
Where in the code can I change what to make it work??
Thanks a lot
Julia
You don’t need to change the code, you have only to change permissions the upload path of s3slider as writable. Please see the installation instructions.
Thanks for using the plugin.
Hi,
We are currently trying to implement this plugin within a site. However we are trying to replicate the current installation of the script (see site) in the new wordpress site we are implmenting.
We seem to be having issues getting the script to operate in this way. (full height slide for black panel).
Please assist
Kind Regards

Hi! If you are able to upload photos and see them with the main function call, then this plugin is working correctly. If you have weird panels and wrong effects, then what you probably have are javascript + css issues.
For that, please reffer to the s3slider script homepage, using the proper HTML section and css styling.

Hope it helps
Thanks for using the plugin.
Thanks. It’s a very easy and wonderful plugin. Please, can you give me any pointers to using different and multiple instance of the slide on one page just like the ones in http://www.kruskica.net/. Thanks once more.
There are no navigation arrows? Can I customize it?
Vinícius, agora q vi q posso perguntar em português, rs. Pois bem, tem como eu customizar navegação entre os slides com setas? Existe essa opção?
Abraços,
Oi Letícia.
Acho que a versão do S3Slider usada pra fazer o plugin não suporta setas e navegação. Pra ter essa funcionalidade você teria que procurar outro plugin.
Abraços
Vinicius
Hum, que pena. Esse foi o melhor que achei até agora! Mas de qq forma vou usando porque supre bem minhas necessidades. Obrigada.
Wondering how to remove the text box completely so only images show on the slider? Tried editing the s3slider.css but it fails to change anything on the bottom text box.
thank you for this plugin. To fix the problem with containing the slider image content inside the plugin, which wipes out the content when the plugin is upgraded, I edited your files and created a files directory in wp-content. A superior solution would be to integrate the WP media upload capability and the existing uploads file directory.
I’d like the slider to have a border around it, and the span text to come up inside the border. Please see example at http://dbwebwork.com. The problem is that the span is overlapping the 10px border on the right and the bottom. I’ve tried a number of things to fix this, but no success yet. What do you suggest?
Never mind, I figured it out! under
#banner ul#bannerContent li.bannerImage span
I added:
bottom:8px;
width:px;
There is still an oddity about the bottom border not drawing the correct color, but that could be one of my errant CSS edits.
sorry, the php code was deleted by the blog. Basically, I made the span narrower.

Hi Affils.
What are the sizes of images you’re uploading? What is the maximum upload size of your server? Maybe the images are going just by half.
About the centered text, you can style them with your theme’s style.css.
Hope it helps.
Thanks! =D
Why do you say that?
Hi David.
As I said to Jose, I would recommend you to catch the JS error to see if there’s a conflict between another JS loading instance in your theme or plugins.
Thanks.
