Thanks for this great extension! I can't get the tag version to work, but the parser function is moving along.

I have a question about slideshow.js. Should line 30 say:

??

Documentation
Great Extension... mostly. -Random User 8:08, 28 October 2008 (PST)
 * parser function works, tag call doesn't, can't find documentation as to how / why.
 * multiple calls of the parser function in a page do not seem to function; would love to know how to fix this.

Header warning
Trying with 1.13.2 and always get a warning: Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/wiki/extensions/Slideshow/slideshow.php:146) in /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/wiki/includes/WebResponse.php on line 10 the include_once statement is right after <?php in LocalSettings.php. Am I missing something ?

Transition problems
The transition "cut" is working, fade and blinddown are not. What could be the reason? -- Tom B. 10:21, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Location for support
Actually, is this the right place for questions anyway? -- Tom B. 10:21, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Warning: Cannot modify header information etc.
As good place as any to ask, the extension definitely ain't working. I get exactly the same errors, testing on a fresh installation of MediaWiki 1.13.3. After all, in the blue box on the main page of this extension it currently says it has been tested on 1.11.0.

 * Remove the ?> from slideshow.php. —Emufarmers(T 18:05, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Key presses between frames

 * I think this is a great extension for displaying images with nice transitions.
 * But I look for a slideshow extension which continues with the next frame when I press a key
 * Maybe this could be considered in the future

Can I use this extension with 1.15.x?
My friend said that he can't install it on his 1.15.1? How will i install it? Chernobyl 13:21, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Works for me on 1.15.1. To use other transtions other than cut, don't forget to download and copy the mentioned .js files. Everything need to know is ont the extensions page.--213.134.24.64 00:33, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * it works on 1.16 too. Adamtheclown 03:12, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Incompatible with XML compatible skin ?
Hello, thanks for the extension. I successfully installed this extension in Mediawiki 1.15.1. However, when I changed my skin to XML-compatible one (as required by Extension:ASCIIMath4Wiki), this does not work anymore. All images were showed, instead of one slide at a time.

I cant' align my slideshow
I want my slideshow appear center on my homepage. I have this:

 * The hack I've done is  - Andreslucena 13:57, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately this does not work for me. The slideshow still shows on the left. I tried putting it in a table, but it ignores the align=center :(
 * Mitchelln 10:29, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

With MediaWiki 1.15.1 this works, using either format described by the author. HOWEVER, I too observe the trouble that the positioning if the display is not quite right. Text can't flow around the image, and the image resists any re-positioning. I gather the author did that to work around some flaw in Microsoft IE, but I wish there were some option. I really need to fit the image in "tightly" with words around it on the sides.

Could the author provide a little advice on this? Pauljohn32 06:05, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 * same problem. and table does not work. Adamtheclown 05:39, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * not much of a solution, but this is what I did:

Will not work if your wiki is in the root folder
This works for 1.16 but not for 1.15.5. Adamtheclown 22:41, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

In 1.15.5 using Javascript Slideshow is strange, if I type:

and if:

...is not on the list of extensions, or is below sideshow, this extension will just show this:

If DPLforum is in my list of extensions, and slideshow is below it, it will only show this:

Tick Tock Adamtheclown 23:12, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * the problem was my wiki was in the root folder, instead of in /w/ or /wiki/ once this was fixed, there was no problem. See Template:Wiki-in-docroot Thanks User:Emufarmers for this help! He added an exception, then later moved the entire wiki to a subfolder. Adamtheclown 04:14, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Widget
Probably not using this extension, despite being one of the examples, but pretty:

1.16?
Doesn't seem to work in 1.16. The simplest tick/tock code from above just shows both "Tick" and "Tock" as static text and based div doesn't show up at all.
 * I am using 1.16, and the tick tock works and the  tags work. this does not work though:

Cannot modify header error for me too
I too get the error when I try to add this to my site. I searched slideshow.php for the "?>", but it's not there. Any ideas why it doesn't work?

MediaWiki	1.14.0 PHP	5.2.14 (cgi-fcgi) MySQL	5.0.91-log

This is the error I get: "Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/w/a/t/watc/html/extensions/Slideshow/slideshow.php:7) in /home/content/w/a/t/watc/html/includes/WebResponse.php on line 16"

Wow, I feel like an idiot. Got it figured out. I right-clicked and saved the php and js file instead of clicking the link and copy/pasting the text. Geez...duh!

Is it possible to redirect image clicks?
I was just wondering if there is a way to redirect the clicks on the pictures? Right now if you click on the image, it takes you to that image's page. In my case, it would be nice if it would actually direct you to the page that image is being used on.


 * You can use the link= parameter. —Emufarmers(T 05:43, 21 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but I can't seem to get it to work. It just directs to the image itself and not the page.  This is what I have in there:

 * link= doesn't work with the thumb parameter before MediaWiki 1.17. —Emufarmers(T 04:07, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
