    Hi folks!

    This is my first post here! I'm French so sorry for my poor English 😉

    My issue is that I set up WP-Cycle as indicated here : http://my.studiopress.com/setup/metric-theme/
    But nothing shows.

    I put no widget at all and uploaded 3 images (500*260) so if I'm correct it should work, as stated here:

    Issues with Metric Theme Home Page

    Can't send a url as it's in early development stage.

    Any idea ?

    Cheers

    OK the Studiopress crew told me that WP-Cycle was not used anymore in the latest version of Metric. Genesis Slider instead.

    I deactivated wp-cycle for the same reasons and installed and activated a Genesis Slider. However, I still have a white box in the top left of my home page where wp-cycle used to be. Tried removing the code from home.php but I get an error message. Maybe I'm taking out too much code...or not enough?

    <div class="home-top-left">
    <?php if (!dynamic_sidebar('Home Top Left')) : ?>
    <div class="widget">
    <?php if( function_exists('wp_cycle') ) : ?>
    <?php wp_cycle(); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
    </div>
    <?php endif; ?>
    </div><!-- end .home-top-left -->

    I found that the solution was in the css file not home.php. I removed the background color from .home-top-left and that seemed to fix the issue.
