I have to ask if the plugin from Imagerion is supposed to work on all widgets no matter where they are located on the page?

The previews work if the widget is located in my side bar like here:
http://stockphoto-images.com/business-card-templates/
(Although the images shown are random and NOT the latest

)

The previews don't work on my home page:
http://stockphoto-images.com/

Did I do something wrong?

It's not working properly on my site either. It will generate wrong links from the thumbnail to the image page and therefore redirect to a 404 error page.

If you want the Latest images just select it instead of Random in the drop down box

My dynamic previews are not working at the moment either - we thought it was super-cache causing it as switching that off made them work again but it is off at the moment and I do not have previews. They come and go, no idea why

Yes of course you're right. I already forgot I used that setting to mix up the images. I actually wanted it that way LOL.

I'm not using any caching at the moment so that shouldn't be the cause on my site in particular.

I brought up the issue before and it was acknowledged but we're two versions later now and it may have been fixed and it just doesn't work the way it should on my site.

I'm confused lol as it works with some widgets and not with others.

@stockphoto-images.com - see http://stock.imagerion.com/syxtra/dynamic-image-previews-help/

@Redneck - wrong links? Don't know anything about it, any examples please?

@Kerioak~Christine - yes we need to work on that, because I don't see those effects on your test site (tulip), just the public one

Kerioak~Christine · « **Reply #9 on:** August 13, 2013, 11:18 »

I have the answer - move everything over to my test site

Yes, the plugin generates links from the thumbnail to the image page looking like 'yourdomain.com/image/yourimagepage/'.
However, I have changed permalinks in my wordpress to a custom structure and that's not working with your plugin.

And the automatic zoom previews didn't work either.

Thanks plrang, I used your widget instead for the latest images and that works!

As far as I can see there is no "featured" option for your widget as of now? Correct?

@Redneck - ok, I understand now, you've modified the default SYS setting, will try to work on that

@stockphoto-images.com - it's in the next release ( the deadline was today, who knows, maybe I can do it), already working great so it prompted me to fill in my featured category
