you have New Way To Display Notifications mod installed which uses jquery 1.4.2, whereas this mod uses 1.6.2

to make this mod working u need to remove this code from headinclude template

    <script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/tw7s_notifications/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>

Thnx for the headsup :-)

everything is possible, but as you want for forums, so there will be different coding for it.

I actually wanted to put in custom news articles for each slide, but it should show on the forums since I've disabled cms. But the forum thing you talked about will also do.

Thanks for the great product!

I know this isnt a product issue and rather vbulletin issue, but is there a way to make this slider only appear on the top page and not on subsequent articles?

I placed this widget on top of the page, and if I click on one of the articles through the product, I want to display the article without the widget.

I searched all over, but coudnt find anything related to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sherif, thank you so much for helping everyone getting this thing up and running. It's pretty impressive that you have tried to respond to every single query made about this cool product. Thanks man!

I've installed the product but only have one little problem - It doesn't stretch to fill the widget. I would like to set the size to auto or anything of sort to correct this but not sure which CSS property I need to change to make this happen. Check out the picture attached to see what I'm talking about.

Thanks again for your work.
