Slideshow not showing up on front page

Hi I have installed the slide show module on clean M install and I have configured it but cannot get it to show… I am guessing it is not finding the images folder which is myroot/media/slideshow.

The module is working as I can see the title when enabled.

ANything I should be looking for??

I have exactly same problem, was there a resolution for it? JM Slideshow module is active and there is images in media/slideshow folder, which is also configured as (of course) image folder. I’m using demo images and following description for each Item:

[desc img="img-1.jpg" url="#"]
<h3>Image1 test</h3>
<p>Image 1 Image 1 Image 1 Image 1 Image 1.</p>
[/desc]

[desc img="img-2.jpg" url="#"]
<h3>Image2 test</h3>
<p>Image 2 Image 2 Image 2 Image 2 Image 2.</p>
[/desc]

[desc img="img-3.jpg" url="#"]
<h3>Image3 test</h3>
<p>Image 3 Image 3 Image 3 Image 3 Image 3.</p>
[/desc]

[desc img="img-4.jpg" url="#"]
<h3>Image4 test</h3>
<p>Image 4 Image 4 Image 4 Image 4 Image 4.</p>
[/desc][/FONT]

I actually solved this. There was a post in forum that suggested Scriptaculous update, which I did and Slideshow showed up in home page : ) My Magento installation is version 1.3.2.3 which should include latest Scriptaculous, but I suppose not.

I am also having a problem with the slideshow.. I upgraded to 1.3.2.3 and I copied the relevant extension files.. Now I’m getting error on front page..

As a test, I created a fresh installation.. Same error message.. Something is wrong with jmslideshow array. An array key does not exist, possibly??

Here is line 23 according to error --
Line 23: itemHeight: <?php echo (int)$config[‘thumbHeight’]+((int)$config[‘thumbSpace’][1] * 2); ?>,

I deleted this line and the next error terminated in line 37 --
thumbSpaces: [<?php echo intval($config[‘thumbSpace’][0]) ?> ,<?php echo intval($config[‘thumbSpace’][1])?>]

I deleted line 23 and 37 and the home page loaded without problem.. As long as the Slideshow module is disabled..

Sorry for ignorance, I am trying to decipher the flow and fix problem.. Please help..

Okay.. A little progress… I built another site and the home page loads WITH JMSlideshow module enabled. Now the slideshow does not run.. The title shows up, so part of script is running.. I have updated the scriptaculous files, but results are the same..

Any suggesstions are appreciated..

I downloaded and installed new version of JMSlideshow (Magento 1.4).. I have a problem however.. The images are not showing. If you goto http://dev.nystixs.com , you will see my problem.. If you choose the properties of the image, the image director link wrong. Look at the following http://dev.nystixs.com/media/slidesh…ow/slide_6.jpg . The image folder is set for media/slideshow, but its doubled within the link..

Please take a look and help me please.. Thanks.
