[SOLVED] No delay in rotating the first image in the header rotation.
 

Hello all, this is my first post in these pages.

I am running WP 3.1.2 and Atahualpa 3.6.4. I have four images loaded in the header folder. I have applied the fix from this post: http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=4046] to allow them to fade in and out. I have my rotate images setting set to 8 seconds, sort images set to yes, my fade in/out set to 0, and my pre-load header images set to yes.

My problem is that the first image (the most important one of course) appears for only a brief second. After this, the image rotation seems to happen as expected, but when someone lands on my page for the first time, or refreshes a page, they get that first image for a blink only - and then on to what seems to be normal rotation.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

This is a known issue with FADE IN/OUT - I suggest you not use this feature.

Thank you sir for your quick reply!

juggledad,

I've removed the code from js.php per your reccommendation and now the images aren't rotating at all. Deleted my cache and still no joy. Any suggestions? Site is here: http://ldltest.info

you don't change the code, just go to ato->Header Image->Fade in/out header images with Javascript? and set it to 0

juggledad,

I had implemented the code change not realizing that it was the same as the new fade in / fade out option. I've erased the code change and set the fade in/ fade out setting to zero and now I do not have any rotation at all. My rotate headers is set to 8 seconds and I'm only getting the first image - no rotation. Hope I'm making this clear. Thanks for your patience with a rookie. :)

I've tried to attach a screen shot of the settings to this post.

It looks like three of your images have a space in the file names, remove it and see what happens - it's the files in the .../atahualpa/images/header folder

Thank you for your continued patience and help. The file names do not have spaces (I caught that while reading another one of your posts). I've attached a screen shot of the files, as they appear in the Blue Host interface so that you can see the names. Any other thoughts as to why the images are not rotating?

Please see attachment.

Thank you!

My apologies! Indeed there WAS a space - at the end of the file name that I just wasn't seeing!
The issue is resolved. Thank you for your help!
