Did you use Custom Post Types to make this happen? Thanks!!! </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/bfthumslides-bullets#post-8188 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 10:21:19 +0000 vfxdude 8188@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>there is no bullets by default with the bfslider, only numbers. It's possible to convert the numbers to bullets with css image replacement (in a child theme. use firebug to find the styles to override).</p> <p>Another solution is to use the new <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/testblog/shortcodes/sliders-galleries/awshowcase3/">awshowcase shortcode</a>, since it already got bullets built in, and I also implemented a <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/testblog/shortcodes/sliders-galleries/awshowcase3/">thumbslider</a> for it. The solution is implemented a bit differently though, instead of adding the bfthumbs shortcode inside the slider shortcode it is added in a <a href="http://youtu.be/mzFXQVhiNOs">shortcode template</a> (enable the "custom template feature" and there will be a templates custom post type). In this example:</p> <p><code>[awshowcase sid="awshowcase-thumb" type="thumb" name="aws-thumb" width="718" height="170" bgcolor="#fff" thumbsperslide="4" transition="hslide" buttons="true" btn_numbers="false"]</code></p> <p>the type is set to thumb, and the name is the title of the template (where the bfthumbs shortode is added). Set buttons="true" and btn_numbers="false" to show the bullets. All the awshowcase parameters are shown in the <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/external-images/scguibutton.png">shortcode GUI</a>. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/bfthumslides-bullets#post-8185 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 04:13:23 +0000 wittlight 8185@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Hello again, </p> <p>I am using the bf thumbslides to display latest features like so:</p> <p><code>[bfslider name="thumbslides" type="thumb" height="250" auto="true" pause="10000"][bfthumbs category="mycategories" numposts="1" width="260" height="210" numcols="1" marginright="15" text="false" title="false" caption="frame-css3"][/bfslider]</code></p> <p>But, I would like to display bullets (like the ones used for nivoslider) so readers can skip features. What is the best way to do this? Thanks!!</p> <p>-Wittlight </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/website-showcase/page/5#post-8084 Fri, 06 Jan 2012 04:42:18 +0000 malady 8084@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>.... </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/disable-timthumb#post-8003 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 21:59:39 +0000 maorzams 8003@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>it took me forever, but here's a solution:<br /> on theme-functions modify this highlighted code:<br /> <a href="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/190/modifycode.jpg/" rel="nofollow">http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/190/modifycode.jpg/</a> </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/disable-timthumb#post-7995 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 16:43:45 +0000 maorzams 7995@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>seems like the script has changed since last year:<br /> bfslider_func is found now at shortcodes.php<br /> Can you please update how to recode to <strong>disable timthumb </strong> in bfslider?<br /> Can you also show the same with nivoslider?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/space-below-slider-and-navigation#post-7861 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 12:37:32 +0000 thestylecrusader 7861@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Thanks. When I reduce the height to 400 it cuts off the bottom of the photo.

And Firebug is the tool to use to find what to change, but if you don't have any knowledge of css it might be a bit harder. Anyway the style to add (at the bottom of style.css (preferably in a <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/bigfeature/2009/10/faq/#childtheme">child theme</a>)):</p> <p><code>#header { margin-bottom: 20px; }<br /> ul.navigation.navbarsep { margin: 0; }<br /> .bfslider p { margin-bottom: 0; }</code> </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/space-below-slider-and-navigation#post-7845 Thu, 08 Dec 2011 22:47:53 +0000 thestylecrusader 7845@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Is there any way to reduce the amount of space between the slider, navigation and first post on my blog?

You can check out the s<a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/testblog/shortcodes/sliders-galleries/">hortcode examples here</a>, for the other sliders. The images can be fetched from several locations, like posts, pages, nextgen gallery or flickr. </p> <p>To add a shortcode to the top of the blog frontpage:<br /> 1. Create a page with the shortcode.<br /> 2. Add it to the "Adspace - blog home below nav" widget area with the BF Page widget.</p> <p>To add it to a static frontpage just add the shortcode into the page editor (html mode) wherever you want it located. It is recomended to use <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/external-images/scguibutton.png">the shortcode GUI</a> for an overview of the available parameters. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/slider#post-7672 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 18:43:06 +0000 thestylecrusader 7672@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I'd like to include a slider at the top of my blog but I can't see how to import it into the blog.

When the bfslider shortcode is <strong>in the content</strong>.. the footer &amp; content goes away. When the bfslider shortcode is <strong>gone</strong>.. the footer &amp; all the content comes back. &lt;?php wp_footer(); ?&gt; is already in the footer.php. </p> <p>I'll leave the site without the bfslider shortcode now.. maybe you'll see something different.
