Hi,

I recently installed the latest version of Super Slider today, configured it as required and had it up and running perfectly after 5 mins. I decided to use thumbnail Images as the navigation type but this prevented the entire site from loading. Is there a neccessary step I am missing to use this navigation type?

Hi Siewnara
Since its a localhost I can only speculate, but I would imagine it might be due to it being localhost on a windows box. Your computer probably doesnt have the proper libraries installed on it that your standard webhost will like GD. What type of error do you get?
Try it on a webhost, and I am willing to bet it will be fine.

hi Matt,

I didn't have the GD extension installed on my apache server I am hosting... Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.. It works as intended now.
