The README.txt indicates that ROTATE_SPEED and BLEND parameters are valid, but they're ignored. i'm running Drupal 6.2 and jQuery Plugins 6.x-1.5.

Here's an example of the error. The slides should cycle after 10 seconds, not 2 or 3.

And this is the code:

Title: ROTATE_SPEED and BLEND parameters ignored » ROTATE_SPEED and BLEND parameters ignored (because no longer used by 2.23 of JQuery Cycle Plugin)
Component: User interface » Documentation
Category: bug » task
Priority: Normal » Minor

I discovered the problem. The README.txt for Slideshow Creator is out of date with the options for version 2.23 of the JQuery Cycle Plugin. Those options are here: http://www.malsup.com/jquery/cycle/options.html

I suggest the README.txt for Slideshow Creator list the correct options.

There is some code in Slideshow Creator 1.29 to translate rotate to timeout and blend to speed. Unfortunately there are some errors in it. It has been (partly) corrected in version 1.30 but some other change(s) are causing the slideshow not to work anymore at all. With partly i mean the values of rotate and blend are copied into timeout and speed, but the former are expressed in secondes while the latter are expressed in miliseconds. The values should have been multiplied by 1000.

One can of cource directly use timeout and speed wich works nicely.

It would be nice to update the documentation.
