Wobble problem solved at last! I am now running OSX 10.8.2 and Safari 6.0.2 Had to install a new running system to install the new Safari. Must have been a bug in my version? Who knows who cares. Problem solved! Thanks very much for your persistence in this matter/ Regards, Mark. Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3/page/2#post-84346 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 02:30:34 +0000 Nick 84346@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, That's what I am using on Windows - Safari 5.17 (7534.57.2) , and this is the final release for Windows. Version 6.0 is out for Apple devices I believe. Thanks, Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3/page/2#post-84343 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 01:22:45 +0000 marko7 84343@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Shall do. Thanks. Safari 5.1.7 OS X 10.6.8 Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3/page/2#post-84342 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 01:01:58 +0000 Nick 84342@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, I think you should re-install your browser. I asked a friend with imac to look and she saw nothing wrong with slider. Are you using ios5 or 6? Because perhaps something installed incorrectly that's causing this. In all browsers including Safari everything looks good from my end now. Thanks, NIck marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3/page/2#post-84339 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 23:49:44 +0000 marko7 84339@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hello Nick. Thought I would go back to the drawing board before you went to the trouble of making a custom slider. I am testing this out on <a href="http://www.accommodationinwarrnambool.com.au" rel="nofollow">http://www.accommodationinwarrnambool.com.au</a> I have now set up the front page via the template builder. ( I initially did not want to do this for SEO purposes but maybe it doesn't make any difference? ) Using the template builder has enabled me to use the theme slideshow for featured businesses. I like the look of it but would prefer if the buttons when clicked opened in a new window. _blank And just for your info did you know that if you select thumbnails it makes the page go a bit haywire. The real problem is that it doesn't work responsively. In mobile view there is no text or link button on the featured businesses slideshow. I just seem to be having a real problem trying to sort this slider out. Still have the wobble with the content slider in Safari Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3/page/2#post-84044 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 08:11:17 +0000 Nick 84044@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi Mark, I've updated some things as I wrote to you in the email, I was able to get rid of the dozens of Google map errors for now. Please hang on one more day and I apologize for the inconvenience. @Devin is correct. Your site often is simply not available and neither are any of the other sites in your IP block. Thanks, Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3/page/2#post-84002 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 03:17:09 +0000 marko7 84002@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Down? Do you mean you can't access the site? I am using Safari 5.1.7 Regards, Mark.

I removed the 's' from all maps including the footer widget but still have the problem. I am inserting them directly.

Would you please replace https with http for google maps? They start with this url <a href="https://maps.gstatic.com/cat_js" rel="nofollow">https://maps.gstatic.com/cat_js</a> or <a href="https://maps.google.com.au/maps." rel="nofollow">https://maps.google.com.au/maps.</a>. Are you inserting them directly or via a plugin? They are throwing 80 errors every time slider makes a complete turn .... just in case.

The problem only occurs in Safari. I'm thinking I might just use something else instead of the slider. Dude on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-83588 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 08:47:24 +0000 Dude 83588@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi! Did you try other browsers (Safari, Chrome, IE9/10, etc.)?

I think perhaps I have a faulty browser? Mark.

I misunderstood and thought everything got solved. I just looked with every browser but all looks fine. I remember before you had some wild jumps, but now everything is calm as a baby pool. I will look right now at your Admin pages, just to see if maybe its something obvious in the settings Thanks,, Nick Devin on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-83493 Mon, 12 Nov 2012 16:42:24 +0000 Devin 83493@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hey Mark, I've flagged the topic for Nick to see if he has been able to resolve the issue.

Thanks, Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82225 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 00:22:22 +0000 marko7 82225@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Just a thought. The slide movement seems to be the cause of the wobble. Is it very difficult to change from slide to fade? marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82171 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 06:20:30 +0000 marko7 82171@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ So sorry Nick. When I added an image to the main slider at the top the wobble came back. The image is 990/400 Must be something to do with this???? <a href="http://accommodationinapollobay.com.au/home-page-test/" rel="nofollow">http://accommodationinapollobay.com.au/home-page-test/</a> Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82157 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 04:27:35 +0000 Nick 82157@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, After doing support for way too long, I no longer ask that question, because learning the answer will in no way help you overcome the next time things go wrong. Wordpress is a complicated piece of software built by hundreds of people with varying skill levels and when you introduce plugins and themes and updates, the best thing to do is get back on track as quickly as possible instead of getting bogged down trying to understand. In a few hours someone will release some update, and that understanding will be nothing but dust. Its the reason why some people hit their computer - because once in awhile it actually does fix the problem! :) Good going, now you back on track. Thank you for your patience. Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82156 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 04:06:22 +0000 marko7 82156@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi Nick. Threw this page together and the slider works perfectly in Safari. Must be something I done? <a href="http://accommodationinapollobay.com.au/home-page-test/" rel="nofollow">http://accommodationinapollobay.com.au/home-page-test/</a> Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82139 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 23:12:29 +0000 Nick 82139@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, Alright I will take a quick look. My email is usjahm (aatttt) gmail (ddooott) com (don't want it harvested by a bot, :) I would need a temp admin wordpress account, and ftp account, since i prefer not disturbing wordpress as much as i can. Thanks, Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82138 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 23:05:22 +0000 marko7 82138@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Thank you Nick. That worked. All images are back now. But so is that bloody wobble! Think I'll give up. Regards, Mark. PS: Might it be something I have done? I could give you my WP details if you think that might work?? Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82068 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 09:09:31 +0000 Nick 82068@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, For future reference, do everything in FTP, including uploading the theme (a) you will have less problems because if one of the files only partially goes through you will see that in ftp while you won't see that installing from wordpress (b) wordpress will not realize that the theme was updated until you log in as admin , and then since it instantly finds the update, it does nothing on its own. I removed the ability to edit code, update, delete or install plugins on my sites - it's nothing but a huge security hole, since if a script kid breaks my password, he won't be able to easily get my sql server password nor be able to install anything and take control. He would just be able to delete pages & posts (something i would easily notice), but won't be able to inject anything i don't want into the code to redirect traffic , steal clicks, or add malware to visitors, which is much harder to detect by the admin. Have you tried creating a new page and adding a new slider with new images you uploaded and creating a new sidebar? You can first delete the sidebar you are using (if its custom, just make sure you pull off the widgets it contains prior to deletion), and create a new one. I am unable to replicate this event. Thanks, Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-82045 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 22:23:53 +0000 marko7 82045@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ All the images are fine Nick. The only problem is, it's one or the other. Very confusing. I either have the side bar images and no main header or vica versa. <a href="http://www.accommodationinwarrnambool.com.au" rel="nofollow">http://www.accommodationinwarrnambool.com.au</a> Thanks for the tip on the DropBox. What I did was delete the old folder by FTP but then I added the new one in WP. Everything is where it should be and the wobble problem seems to be fixed but I can't get the main slider photo and sidebar photos to appear at the same time???? Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-81950 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 12:33:03 +0000 Nick 81950@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, Do you have a backup of the database? because if you revert to the old copy, and put back the previous version of the theme, you should not de-activate the theme or delete it in Wordpress. If you go directly via ftp and delete it there, and add the new version, Wordpress doesn't do anything drastic like what you are describing. If you have no backup, you will have to unfortunately upload the images all over again. For future please install a free DropBox backup plugin, that will automatically make a backup of your entire site every few days and upload it to free storage at dropbox. Thanks, Nick marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-81923 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 07:38:20 +0000 marko7 81923@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Woops. May have made a few slight errors but think I'm nearly there. Uploaded the new theme but have a small problem. Had to upload the images again in the images folder. ( for sidebar images ) Now if I edit the frontpage and save I get the main slider photo but no images in the sidebar. Then if I go to widgets and save again, the images in the sidebar appear and I lose the main slider photo. The initial problem ( slider being wobbly ) is gone when the sidebar images are in place but is still there when they are gone. If this is any help to you. Mark. This is with the Warrnambool site. accommodationinwarrnambool.com.au Dude on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-81920 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 07:18:07 +0000 Dude 81920@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ No, if you upload the new files all your customizations will be lost. Thus I'd suggest to make a backup of the old choices theme folder first (eg rename choices to choices_bak) and upload the new folder. Then you can copy your custom.css file from choices_bak/css to choices/css and (if you modified any php files) you need to edit the new files again. marko7 on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-81910 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 05:11:37 +0000 marko7 81910@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi Nick. I have made copies of custom.css and functions.php Can I then simply replace the old choices folder ( within themes ) with the new one via FTP? I'm assuming all the work I have done so far will still be there? Sorry for the stupid questions. Haven't done this before. Mark. Nick on "Slider problem" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/slider-problem-3#post-81907 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 04:35:11 +0000 Nick 81907@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Howdy, Please go to Themeforest.com. Login using the same screen name you purchased this theme with. And you will automatically see every item you ever purchased, and if the item has been updated, you would see the new version number and download, just as you have done when you initially got the theme. Its a full theme, the update. So you delete the current one you use and put this one instead of the old one. That's it. However if you made customizations (edited theme files), they will be gone. If you have Windows, you should download <a href="http://www.winmerge.org" rel="nofollow">http://www.winmerge.org</a>, its free and lets you comare any 2 files, or even every file between two directories. So you can compare the updated theme to the old version and instantly see line by line where you changed anything. And also start using child themes, so this way you will not have to do any of this when you update themes. I recently made a long post about child themes which pertains to any theme. You can read it here. <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/what-do-i-need-in-my-child-theme-functionsphp-file-for-it-to-work-properly#post-81838" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/what-do-i-need-in-my-child-theme-functionsphp-file-for-it-to-work-properly#post-81838</a> Thanks, Nick
