I found and fixed my issue!! After running various queries based on the code, I figured out that it only shows articles with a Publish Date of the last 12-13 months. Since we are still building our Live site, we were testing with a few older articles, with Publish Dates in 2010.

Once I changed the dates to something more recent - voila! I have a slider.

Hope this helps someone else some day.

I give up after six month on how to figure out slider in cms. Uninstalled and thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I really prefer the look of this one. Thanks though.

So, my slider stopped working. For various reasons it took a while for me to discover this sad fact. After going through all of the troubleshooting steps I was about ready to remove this dang slider mod and try something else. As a last resort, I checked my php.ini file. Right away this jumped out at me: it was set to version 5.2.

Due to some other troubleshooting, my webhost changed my PHP version back to 5.2 (without telling me). I bumped that baby back up to version 5.3 and the slider is working great! I don't claim this will work for everyone, but if you're having troubles, check it out.

Yeah this work on 4.2. I have it going smoothly.

I cannot get this working on 4.2.0. I get the slider, the animation and the full bck image and the article text. However, I cannot get the images to display.

Additionally, the images link incorrectly. My site is stored in a folder, not root.

So, my installation is in root/V2. Article links point to domain.com/v2/content.php - but the slider points to domain.com/content.php - does this plugin not work unless the vB install is in the root?

Hopefully someone can help ASAP.

Not Working whit vbulletin 4.2.0 can't open attachment error. My code is:

$slider_img_filepath = '/clientscript/slider/';

I have the same problem but a bit different in the img_dir I have

$slider_img_filepath = '/foros/slideshow/';

this works as it executes the jscript and displays the articles with the default image however the article images/attachments do not display when I look at the debug code the absolute path that it shows is incorrect as it shows /sitehomedir/foros/foros/slideshow/ and of course it doesn't find the images there.

if I change the img_filepath to remove the duplicate foros entry like this:

$slider_img_filepath = '/slideshow/';

then it doesn't find the rest of the script and only it looks worst.

this sounds like an easy fix but I just don't know where to specify the full server path even if I hardcode it in.

this is how it looks now:

I didnt go through all 32 pages, but can the image be displayed as its original size to prevent distortion?
