Question

Slideshow HTML website click and next

Hello, 

My personal website always worked that way that when you click on a picture it jumped to the next; like a slideshow. However, since a few weeks it doesn’t work that way any longer and all images popped up at the same time instead. I've adjusted it right now so you can at least scroll down, but my knowledge in HTML is very outdated unfortunately.  Does anyone you’ve got any idea what goes wrong initally and how to fix it? 
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
Y

    1. jQuery Cycle is outdated.

    2. You never should have referenced the script on GitHub because that's not a recognized CDN. 

    3. Rebuild your slideshow with jQuery Cycle 2.  Download scripts directly from the source and upload them to your server.  See link below.

    Thanks for your help, but it's not my cup of tea I guess. I don't understand what I've got to copy/replace were in my original website in order to make it work again...  

     


    Hi Ben, 

    Two more questions; hopefully you know how to fix it! I've adjusted some parts so it looks almost as it should.

    1. The portrait / standing images are too big on the page. They don't fit in one window like the squared ones are. I don't like it that you've got to scroll to see an image. It needs to be visible at one page without scrolling (does that make sense?) 
    Is it possible to adjust that?

    2. Can I enlarge the invisible boxes of the 'previous' and 'next' button till they are both covering half of the page? So when you click on the right side, you go next, and when you click on the left side, you go back.

    Is that possible? And if so, how?
    Thanks a lot again!!
    My best,

    Y

    It appears your slideshow script was deleted from the server. But it appears to be from a server different than your own so it's possible you may need to find a replacement if the script you previously used is no longer being hosted.
