    Hi Everyone:

    Im trying to find a image rotator that will work in the Mocha theme. I tired quite a few and none of them rotate at all. All they do is display all the images in a list. Is there something Im missing or if anyone is using this theme and found a good image rotator, can you please share what it is. I'm pulling my hair out trying to get this one simple thing to work.

    Thanks!

    Can you post a link to your site? What rotators have you tried? My first response would be have you tried the Genesis Responsive slider?

    The Mocha theme doesn't come with a slider/widget area. Did you register a new widget for the home page so you can use the slider?

    Sorry for the delayed response. Its been a crazy week. I've tried a lot of the image rotators on my site. The link to my site is mymodelmummy.com . Im trying to get the badge area and the link area to be on a image rotator widget. Unfortunately anytime I use a image rotator widget, it doesn't work. It either doesn't show the image or doesn't rotate.

    WP Cycle is a good plugin for slider images.

    I added wp cycle as and the images doesnt show fully and it doesnt rotate through images. Is there something else that I need to add to functions.php or more code to get this to work? Its strange because I add this to any other of my sites, it works. Its this one theme.

    Please configure the widget settings, add images and use the PHP tag or shortcode to display the slider in any hook position.

    I wrote a post about how to do this a few weeks ago. http://wpsites.net/best-plugins/3-ways-to-display-wp-cycle-slide-shows-in-your-theme/

    Hi Brad:

    It still doesn't work. It lists the images as they are shown on the Wp-Cycle Settings Page. I followed your suggest to add it as a widget in the article you wrote. No luck. Its very strange. I have it up on the site right now. Its on the widget panel on the right. Its the section, that has two images and title for the widget. Any suggestions on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

    This plugin maybe causing an issue. dk-new-medias-image-rotator-widget

    Deactivate all your plugins except for the WP Cycle plugin and see if it works.

    How did you add the slider to the widget? Di you use a shortcode?

    I should've tested all plugins and not the ones that I thought were causing the problem. There was one plugin causing the issue - 'CDN Sync Tool' . As soon as I disabled that one it was working perfectly. It looks like I will have to disable it when Im no using it.

    I really appreciate the help Brad.
