Clear your server cache and look at the top of your side bar. Mine was collapsed at the very top.

Are you sure that is the right line?

I know HTML and CSS3, but have no experience with VB templates before now. Thank you for the help and the great extension!

Hello,

You should edit the line below and change the condition which displays the slider as you prefer:

<vb:if condition="$page['ishomepage'] or $nivo_in_all_pages">

Thank you.

FYI, I had to uninstall this item as it was causing a posting conflict. When you would post something, you'd get a popup that said "Error Loading Post", yet when you refreshed the screen the post was there. After the full uninstall it stopped. Any idea what would cause that? It's a great product. I'm using 5.1.2.

This still makes no sense. I want to change to the page titled home. The above is only an if statement, it isn't putting anything anywhere.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. We are running some tests, we are going to apply some fixes on our next update.

Hello,

I probably misunderstood your question. You want to display the slider only on a certain page, right?

About the login area, try to remove the code below from the js/vb5nivo/vb5nivo.js file.

$('#lnkLoginSignupMenu').click(function(){
	$("#idLoginIframeContainer" ).dialog({
		modal: true,
		resizable: false });
});

Please let me know if the login was fixed.

Thank you.

Awesome, that did fix the login. Also, yes, I would like the slider to be on a specific page, which isn't the home page. I am looking through the code and don't see a way to specify a page.
Thanks for the help!
