I installed and enabled fpss successfully as far as I can tell (get all the green messages on the settingspage of fpss) and when I create a slideshow I recieve the message that the slideshow was created so I assume that everything went fine. However when I want to create a slide I get the redbox telling me that I have to create a slideshow first and I cannot choose one from the dropdown (bc it doesn't show any).
I also did as advised here: http://drupal.org/node/387190#comment-1306708 but no good. ;(

What am I missing?

I just found the according blocks and activated them. they show up, of course without content because I am still not able to create slides.......

update: My settings for my slideshows even make it into the assigned css-folder. So I think I really got it right. It cannot be a permissions issue because I am the superuser. Where is my mistake?

Hmm...

Are you still getting this problem or have you been able to solve it?

#393624: Does not work with i18n
#379236: reg_match() expects parameter 2 to be string .... when adding an new slide

This is true. I deactivated i18n and it works all fine. I hope there is an update soon.

Hey guys...
I have the very same problem and I havent sleep in the past 3 days and I didnt find a solution.. SO finally i had to change something in the fpss.module at line 361 so it can work and ignore the language field but I have the Slideshow mixed with all my nodes now and I cant even use it on other languages interface (Cant translate it) but still I guess its something you can use until the Frontpage Slideshow guys release a more stable module and give us some attention...

Open fpss.module and go to line 360 and find:
$sql = "SELECT vid, title FROM {node} WHERE type = '%s'";

Replace it with:
$sql = "SELECT vid, title FROM {node} as n ";

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope someone can find a solution how to enable this module to other languages.

Blessings,
Burhan
