closed resolvedHello,
I know this has been asked before, but I cannot find it in the threads. I recently installed the theme on a sub-domain and cannot figure out how to remove the default slider images and have the system use the ones I want. Can you please post that answer here - and this time I'll try to save it somewhere!
Thanks in advance...
Hi Ismael,
Okay...I'm having a "dense" day - what am I looking for in that directory? All I see is a list of files...am I supposed to be replacing those files, looking for a document within that directory or what?
I don't understand...
Sorry to seem so dense, Devin, but EXACTLY how do I do that? Delete the other files? Upload my files in their place? Edit one of the templates?
HELP!

Hi,
Go to slideshow folder and edit config.xml, find this code
<slide>
<!-- you should use absolute urls with http://wwww etc -->
<url>wp-content/themes/display/files/bigpicture1.jpg</url>
</slide>
<transition direction="down" slicing="vertical" num="4" shader="flat" z_multiplier="2" />
<slide>
<url>wp-content/themes/display/files/bigpicture2.jpg</url>
</slide>
<transition direction="left" slicing="horizontal" num="7" shader="none" z_multiplier="2" />
<slide>
<url>wp-content/themes/display/files/bigpicture4.jpg</url>
</slide>Does it make any sense now? You can change the image url.
Regards,
Ismael
Ismael - I remember a different procedure...there was a setting that I changed in a previous Display install that did not require me to edit any code or files. The config.xml file that I have on a site that IS working looks pretty much the same as the one on the new subdomain I'm working on...
I even remember getting an email about it, but just can't find the email. The site I have where the rotating display works is at http://www.thedivastylecoach.com. Could you take a look at that? Perhaps I am not explaining my situation correctly? The rotating images are correct on that site, but on the site lyr.thedivastylecoach.com is the site where the default images are still showing...
I just don't understand...(head in hands)
Okay - figured it out...I had to select the radio button 'Use Slideshow Manager' on the configuration page for the Frontpage Slider...SMH...anyway - hopefully that will help someone else.
