Perhaps it is my connexion, but since updating, the site seems slower. Anyway I can test that?
As well, if you have time, I have started this conversation @ WordPress: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-ie-9-slideshow-anomaly?replies=1
I am not sure why, perhaps something new to the skin update, but IE is not displaying the slideshow correctly. Any thoughts?
July 20, 2011 at 6:50 am #1077Update: Previewing the site with the default WP Themes (Twenty Ten & Eleven 1.2)the flash gallery works fine. It seems to be some sort of conflict with the Xi Theme. Any suggestions as to course of action? Perhaps a Custom CSS fix?
July 20, 2011 at 7:16 am #1079Update: The issue also seems to be present in the NextGen Widget. When I adjust the Next Gen Widget, it does respond to the size change. As well, the slideshow – the Gallery proper – does respond to any changes made in the top to bottom – vertical – dimension, but there is no change horizontally – right to left. I do hope this is helpful?
July 20, 2011 at 7:20 am #1080I have just visited your site, the flash gallery seems to be working fine in Chrome, IE8 +9 and FireFox.
The popup window loads pretty slow in IE, but it does work. Other than that can’t see much wrong.
July 20, 2011 at 7:22 am #1082Really? From my end the gallery in IE is compressed unnaturally. Can you confirm the same general layout in IE, FF & Chrome from your vantage? If so, what does that mean about my various local install? This is replicated on three different systems!
July 20, 2011 at 7:46 am #1085It looks exactly the same on all browsers I have include IE. It isn’t compress and it even resizes when I resize the browser.
here is a screenshot from IE8
http://themeloom.com/misc/um-ie8.pngJuly 20, 2011 at 7:52 am #1087Ah – now I see the confusion. I am not talking about the Gallery. I too have no cross-browser issues. The trouble is when you choose ‘show as slideshow.’ Can you confirm there is consistency across all browsers?
July 20, 2011 at 8:52 am #1091Its using Flash – yuk! You really shouldn’t be using Flash.
Flash is not supported on 64-bit systems (like mine) unless you install the beta version of the flash player.
Flash is not supported on iPads, or iPods, or IPhones – part of the reason for having Xi, a responsive theme.
I am running 64bit Windows and so when I click slideshow I just get a link to download flash, which I can’t because:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/000/6b3af6c9.htmlWhen I run on a system with the beta flash player installed then there does appear to be an issue in IE alone.
I will see what I can do but I would not use this at all fro the above reasons.
July 20, 2011 at 9:00 am #1095I have emailed you a possible fix.
July 20, 2011 at 9:57 pm #1106Thanks – brilliant!
July 20, 2011 at 11:17 pm #1108In respect to your concern, unfortunately the purchase has already been made to use Monoslideshow. I will revisit it if there is enough pushback. As for 64b systems not working – what are you running?
July 21, 2011 at 7:45 am #1112I have a fresh windows 7 64bit and IE8 on a Dell laptop. By default it doesn’t show! I had to download and install a Beta version of the flash player to make it run!
July 22, 2011 at 5:32 am #1120I too am running a 64-bit W7 – but have avoided IE in 64-bit as it has more than just issues with Flash fwiiw … FF is my default browser, then Chrome and finally IE 9 if I have to do financial stuff – as many sites still use it as the default.
July 22, 2011 at 9:46 am #1129Yes, a lot of people use IE, that’s the problem. For churches, a lot of not so techy people will by default be using IE and often older versions than you.
July 22, 2011 at 7:21 pm #1132Agreed – though 9 is ‘better’
