Good old MG v1.5.1 had a great working Javascript slideshow.

The unofficial Media Gallery 1.6.13 has its slideshow broken, both in Jquery and non Jquery mode.

Had to revert to v1.5.1, so please fix this.

I did not encounter any problem with slideshows in mediagallery 1.6.13.

In the albums:
-javascript,
-lightbox,
-flash
are working as autotag [ slideshow : XXXXX ]

What can I say? It just doesn't work for me, while it does in MG 1.5.1.

I see all the images loading at the same time until the last images loads and it just stays there.

I don't even see any slideshow code in the source code (while v1.5.1 had a dhtmlgoodies script).

Could it be browser related?

Does this slideshow (javascript) on the bottom of the page or this one in a lightbox (click Slideshow) is working?

I also have an issue with the slideshow in Media Gallery 1.5.0

It is browser related. It doesn't work in Internet Explorer 10 (Firefox and Chrome are fine).

Weird, both slideshows do work for me.
Do you have any idea what's the cause of this?

You can try few things:

- change plugins order,
- disable all others plugins,
- debugging javascript,
- delete all mediagallery files and install a fresh copy.

Hi all,

I have confirmed this problem.
There were several factors for this problem.
One of the factors is the browser IE10.
One of the other factors is the version of jQuery.
It was also related to the position that jQuery is loaded is moved to the footer.
This position has been moved to the footer from the header with Geeklog1.8.0.

Most of the problems have been resolved by now.
However, Lightbox (Slimbox2) does not work correctly in combination with IE10 and jQuery 1.9.1.

Version 1.6.14 is out, but the Javascript slideshow still doesn't work for me (although I do see a Javascript that loads something and calls a play command).

MG 1.5.1's DHTML solution just worked without any glitch. Why did you stop using it?

What is DHTML solution?
Mind you, but I have never used the MG1.5.1.

I have confirmed all modes of the Slideshow (JavaScript, Lightbox, Flash(Disp), Flash(Orig) and MP3 Jukebox) works with the following browser and Geeklog.
Browser: Firefox 20, Google Chrome 26, Internet Explorer 10
Geeklog version: 1.6.0, 1.7.0, 1.8.0, 2.0.0

Please tell me your environment. Browser, Geeklog version, JavaScript etc.

V1.5.1 used a script from dhtmlgoodies, which always worked like a charm.

Just to be clear, when I say "Javascript slideshow", I mean the slideshow autotag.
Firefox 20, Geeklog 2.0.0.

Okay, LWC.

I confirmed the slideshow autotag does not work correctly.
This problem was solved by updating the jQuery Cycle Lite Plugin.
I will publish the new version of Media Gallery anytime soon.

Hooray, it finally loads! But...it's still not clickable!

The source code does have:
Text Formatted Code
,onClick: function(i){ window.location = "http://whatever..." }

but it simply has no effect (it doesn't even display a hand mouse icon).

Please fix this too.

OK.

I have tried to fix.
There is a single file that has been archived HERE.

I want you to download it, and unzip, and replace your /plugins/mediagallery/include/autotags.php.

It works, thanks for all the fixes! You're a real pro.

Now that it works, can you add ALT support? Each image currently has an alt="".

But what troubles me more is that it visually shows the initial loading of all of the images at the same time. If they are different sizes, it looks a little unprofessional.
In v1.5.1 (the DHTML script), the initial loading was taking place backstage so it didn't matter.
But maybe it's a jQuery issue and not a MG one.

Thanks for this fix dengen. Has the fix been added to the latest Media Gallery download on your site or should I just grab the file (I am upgrading from a much older version)?

I know them. I want to solve the problem in a future version.

I can confirm it works. Although IE displays the new ALTs, but Firefox doesn't. But again I guess it's not about MG.
