I've used this plenty of times in D7 and somewhat recently in D8.

My latest build though on the post Dec-18th build of core, I can't seem to get the view to cycle.

Yes, I've loaded the library.

As alternatives, both JSSOR and Juicebox carousels work fine but I don't prefer them for a number of reasons.

Anyone else have problems with the Dec 18th version of D8 and Views Slideshow?

Thanks

Here is a link to a dev instance of Acquia Cloud where there are JSSOR and Juicbox running fine but I can't get Views Slideshow to run

I have a similar issue.. which exact version of Drupal are you using?
Mine says 8.0.1.

What do you mean exactly with "Yes, I've loaded the library."?

I've downloaded the library to
{docroot}/libraries/jquery.cycle/jquery.cycle.all.min.js

It is in the sister folder of the other carousel modules' libraries which are working.

I've also tried the sites/all/libraries location too without any better result.

I can go into my D6 and run views slideshows and create a slideshow and it works
But when I try this on D8 my slide show does not work. I just get 1 image. I am using
bottom page controls and the prev and next d not display anything.

Did you guys get the slideshow working?
Can you give me instructions.

Thanks,

Updated: I managed to work around a few small bugs and changes from Drupal 7.

Here's how I made the slideshow work: https://www.ostraining.com/blog/drupal/drupal-8-slideshows/

Steve, I don't see anything different in your blog other than adding the controls after you placed the block. Is that the trick or was there some fix lately to make it work again.

jjflynn22. Good question. I definitely ran into a few times when I thought it wouldn't work.

I think clearing the cache and disabling aggregation helped make the difference.

I had a wrong jquery cycle version. From the project website I guess and not from GitHub in my libraries folder. Then I've replaced it with the version from https://github.com/malsup/cycle and the slideshow worked. Does that approach work for you as the solution also?

Not mentioned on the home page but 8.x-4.x requires the jquery.hoverIntent library.
The quick and easy method to get the right library requirements would be the drush command: #2658392: D8 Drush integration [patch included]
