Hi,

I am stumped on why out of the box as to why DCG won't enable to pull the images in. I have it on a test site: http://test.mikestults.com.

Below is how it is showing me I have the necessary 2 posts/images to make it all work. Any suggestions on what may be "holding up" the content from showing up?

WP: 3.3.1
Thesis: 1.8.2
Image Management: auto
Carousel Thumbnails: legacy
Gallery Method: multi-option | Default Images folder is: http://test.mikestults.com/wp-content/uploads/
Descriptions: auto
Javascript Options: mootools
Load Scripts: Home Page
Tools – Error Message options: on

Hi,

I would have to see the problem in action to be sure, but I suspect you have a javascript conflict with another plugin. Try switching the DCG to jQuery. (DCG Settings < Javascript Options tab)

I just decided to go more basic with Wordpress Content Slide. It seemed to do the trick for now! Thanks!

Sorry Ade! I didn't see your post sir!

I think your very right about that! I will come back to visit it since this is my test site but for now I think I may just use the WCS plugin for my friend :).

Hi Ade,

I'm also having this problem while using mootools.

*These settings show jquery being enabled as a temporary fix.
Image Management: auto
Carousel Thumbnails: post-thumbnails
Gallery Method: one-category | Default Images folder is: http://holdenfenner.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/
Descriptions: auto
Javascript Options: jquery
Load Scripts: Home Page
Tools – Error Message options: on

This is a fresh installation of Wordpress 3.3.1 using the Twenty Eleven theme, and the only other plugin that was even installed was Askimet. I disabled it, but it didn't seem to help at all. The site is holdenfenner.com Any ideas?

@ Michael

Ok!

@ htfenner

The DCG is working, but you only have one image in the gallery. For info, the Mootools script MUST have at least two images otherwise you will get the black screen.
