Nivo Slider Images Not Showing...

emmark

Hi
I have got the Nivo Slider on my home page and entered the shortcode for a couple of slides. It seems to pick up the captions that I entered and the number of slides but refuses to actually show the slide, I just get a big black space apart from the captions. Any ideas?

I am having a similar issue. What are the shortcodes for the nivo slider, because when I try to upload an image it does not give me the option to 'insert into post', etc.? Since I do not know the shortcodes and I cannot find a reference for them I have no way of entering them in manually. Because of this the slider will not work. Please advise.

Hi

Check http://apollo13.eu/docs/airborn/#!/slideshow
Shortcodes editor is below main editor. Use it to insert desired shortcode.


With regards.

I am using this editor, but the images are not being displayed in the slider.

Here is what my shortcode looks like:

[nivo height="260"] [slide src="http://72.29.93.194/~cynthia/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/index.png"] [/slide] [/nivo]

[nivo height="260"] [slide src="http://72.29.93.194/~cynthia/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/celebcooking-header-300x67.jpg"] [/slide] [/nivo]

What am I doing wrong?

As you can see no images are appearing in the slider. Please help. Thank you!

Hi pgtech.

It looks like problems with your server, something with rewriting paths(not sure).
I just checked images you provided in shortcode, and there are none of those images, it just returns 404 error.

If You like, please send me temporary access to your WP by private message.

With regards.

pgtech

ok, I have sent this to you in a private message. thank you!

Hi pgtech

I have just tested but it seems like some server problem with paths.
If you can please try to test it on different server, cause configuration of current one could make errors. You can also check this post http://support.apollo13.eu/discussion/comment/215#Comment_215 to gain some more info.

Sorry there is no progress in your case.

With regards.

This is our server. Which configuration are causing the problem? We need the theme to work on this server. If not we will have to do a charge back to get it refunded, as it does not work properly and is therefore a waste of company resources.

Sorry but it is too complex case to figure out what could be causing problems. While we were providing support for other users, there were few server that were causing big problems with themes. About what could be wrong in your server use link I provided in previous post, it might help your server admin.

With regards.
