I am attempting to setup a block slideshow it displays correctly when I view it in Structure>Views. However, when I activate the block as a top right column in the Mayo theme no images show.

These are the steps that I followed:

1) Setup Content types

  • Created a type called: front page slideshow
  • Deleted the body field
  • Created a new field called slideshow_image, setting the field type to image and widget to Multiupload

2) Added Images/Content using the content type: front page slideshow
3) Created a new view

  • Created a Block called Slideshow, clicked continue and edit
  • set the view Title as Slideshow
  • Format set to Slideshow and to show fields
  • In Fields I set content as slideshow_image and title
  • Filter Content is set to: front page slideshow

4) Setting a Block

  • moved the View: Slideshow block to "top right column" on the Mayo theme
  • Within the Block I set the content type to front page slideshow
  • Then I specified to only show the block on the homepage by selecting: Only the listed pages and typing into the designated field
  • saved bock
