Good day, just to clarify I am a pretty fair photographer, but not much of a web coder, so please be kind :) I have set up my site with a customer welcome page and have no problem having asingle image appear on it, but what I really wnat is a slide show. I ahev read through all the posts and I do not understand how to do this, is there available or can anyone write me a short step by step instruiction to do this? I know this is asking alot, and If not I understand.
Many thanks Lenny

install Extended Description and use the tag [slider]
from Additional Pages there is a ? button opening a full documentation of Extended Description syntax

Yes I have additionla Pages Installed, so I just add the TAG (and parmeters) within the HTML for the Welcome Page? Anyplace specific? The reason I ask is I think I tried that last night a nd got an SQLerror. As I said Ia m jot that good at coding, learning, but its a process
thanks

if you useg the Standalone Homepage template, replace the [photo) tag by [slider]
and if you have errors, paste them here, can't help without

Hi Mistic100, I've recently upgraded Piwigo to 12.1 and now seem to have a similar (if not the same) bug occurring. If I put the parent album value in I receive a message that there are no photos in the album, but if I put the specific child number of an album in it will draw from that album - trouble is that doesn't allow for pulling images from random albums across the gallery. I have updated extended description to the latest version (12.d) but still have this issue. Hoping it's a simple change that can be fixed.
