Automatic Content Slider for Blogger using Nivo Slider part 1
July 21st, 2011
In this post is still on “Automatic Content Slider”. the difference is only in the css styles and javascript.
With little modification to be used for blogger.
How it works is still the same as the content slider before.
This article was inspired by a request from Dante Araujo.
he said if Nivo Slider is the best free content slider, it has some awesome transition effects, and very customizable, really superior.
The following is how it looks

Step 1 : Apply Style
- Login to Blogger Dashboard and navigate to Layout > Edit Html
- Don’t click the checkbox which says ‘Expand Widget Templates’

Then insert the script in front of it

wah..jazakallah, ust abu..
pengalaman memasang nivo biar tidak ada jarak dengan header adalah mengganti di atas :cari:
theme-default #slider {
margin:100px auto 50px auto;
width:618px; /* Make sure your images are the same size */
height:246px; /* Make sure your images are the same size */
}
untuk margin ganti 10..biar tidak ada jarak dari atas..betul tidak ust abu, cz pengalaman di blog saaya spt itu..
jazakallah..mudah2an jadi ilmu bermanfaat
Salam.

hi did you change the script?
bcoz 2weeks back i installed this script and it is working
also images in a blog post are shown in a slideshow
but now the images in a blog post are not making a slideshow when i left click them
even though the content slider for blogger posts is working
Just searching this post for 3 days and finally got it. thanks abu farhan
I Tried your al slider methods nothing work for me as I can’t add Html/javascript element. It just not getting saved
you already have jquery in your template. If you want to use slider dont add jquery link from my script
I didn’t add the jquery link from your script still cannot save html/javascript gadgets
Don’t add from edit html but add Gadget and put the script

4.tadi dikampus saya blajar uji kualitas perangkat lunak, ada materi seven check list. “to the point” kalo domain name kata’a lebih bagus ga pakek simbol ato tanda2, misal – + & dans sebagai’a
kok diblog saya muncul slider/slideshow’a di sidebar :(

Cara, muito obrigado mesmo, ajudou bastante, continue com esse ótimo trabalho, eu sou do Brasil, mas mesmo assim leio seu blog frequentemente.
obrigado…
I apologize for being off-topic, but would you please please help me, I have problem with posting comment on some websites. Please have a look at this picture:
http://i54.tinypic.com/2u6l7xz.jpg
It was captured when I was browsing Ganool.com
As you can see the ‘Post comment as’ dropdown list couldn’t load properly.
When I typed something in the box then click ‘Post comment’ or ‘Preview’, nothing happened.
I have tried to re-install my browser (Firefox 5) and Java (Java 6 update 26).
I have also tried Chrome browser.
But no luck, the dropdown list still couldn’t load.
Please give me your opinion about this problem, it will be very appreciated.
Thanks.
because the page is not completely loaded.
maybe your internet connection is slow.
I have tried a lot of times, and I did wait for it to load completely, but it doesn’t help.
Do you really think it is a connection speed problem? My download speed is about 40KB/s.
if not your internet connection maybe the problem is your browser.
because when I try with my browser, works well…

As I wrote before, I have already tried to re-install my browser and java.
I have also tried loading the page with Chrome browser. No luck.
What I think is: perhaps some wrong settings in my Windows XP? But I just don’t know which.
Thanks for replying though..
I have it solved!
It was the ISP ‘feature’ with webpage caching problem after all.
By using Modify Headers add-on, I turned off the cache for cache-control and pragma. As the result, the ‘Post comment as’ dropdown list loaded properly, and now I can post again :)
@catur: Thanks for your replies.
ok…:)
This is great…
It is working fine to my blog. Thanks!
