I was refreshing the photos in my slideshow and now....NO slideshow at all!
What gives? I did change the url in the custom footer section to include the key after the gallery number because it wasn't working and I thought that would help. It didn't. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Are you using the old show? It's in your javascript. The old show would still work if you didn't change photos, the new photos with the security photo will not run in the old show.
If so you need to switch to the new show.
Follow the directions in this post.

Before I really mess this up, in the part of the code that says "clickURL:" what do I put...http://www.sharonbushman.com OR http://www.sharonbushman.smugmug.com
My actual url is sharonbushman.com, but when I go into the slideshow gallery, it says sharonbushman.smugmug.com.

Also, Do I need to remove this from my java script as well?
function hasPath(sPath)
{
re = new RegExp("\/" + sPath + "(\/|$)");
return re.test(window.location)
}
As far as I know, I put that in when I put all the old slideshow info in.
And this.....
********>
if (hasPath("galleries"))
YD.addClass(document.body, "galleries");
</********
...was in the custom footer section above where the old slideshow info was. Do I get rid of that too?
Thank you

Both the function hasPath and if (hasPath script remain. They are for
creating your duplicate homepage called galleries.
The click url is any where you want your visitors to go. This will take
them to your galleries. You can put any link in there. They are already
on your homepage so linking to it does nothing.
clickUrl: '/galleries',

I don't see your biobox active on your homepage. Have you moved it out of
your control panel?
From referenced thread.
You where using your biobox so your biobox might not show on your
homepage when you remove the old code. Go into your control panel under
the settings tab and edit it there or just add some text in it so it will show
on your homepage.
Look for Bio:change under the settings tab.

Ok, Bio box is shown....now look. It's not showing the photos. It is stopping on yoru splash, make sure that the gallery it's in has external
links truned on under customize gallery.
splash: 'http://sharonbushman.smugmug.com/gallery/2881175_a8ezA-L.jpg',
Btw, any where you have a link make it a relative link.
Leave off the http://sharonbushman.com or http://sharonbushman.smugmug.com part.
Then however you enter your site your domain or nickname will stick. This is
especially important when logged in and the address stays on your nickname.
Like these
splash: '/gallery/2881175_a8ezA-L.jpg',
<div id="navcontainer">
<ul>
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2879512">About</a></li>
<li><a href="/Photo">Portfolio</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2868919">Rates & Info</a></li>
<li><a href="/headshot%20proofs">Proofs</a></li>
<li><a href="/gallery/2922603">FAQ/Hints&Tips</a></li>
<li><a href="http://sbphotos.shotblogs.com">My Blog</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
btw, also remove the ' around 'display: none;'
#my_banner {
'display: none;'
position:relative;
width: 750px;
height: 150px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
background: url(/photos/413530884_fMEvi-O.jpg) no-repeat;
text-align: center;
}
Add this to your CSS center your slideshow.
#userBio {text-align: center;}

Nothing :D The show js is hanging up on your splash photo. The link is
no good or in it's gallery external links are not on. Also make sure it's not
checked "hide". Or it's in a passworded gallery.
I use WebDev to view your site and when removing the splash from the
generated object show code it runs.

Add the banner div back in your header.
<div id="my_banner"></div>
<div id="navcontainer">
<ul>
...
You splash photo is still stopping the show.
Change your bio code to this and you'll see your show run. Can always add
the splash back in later.
<html>
<script>
var ssConfig = {
AlbumID: '2881175',
newWindow: 'false',
transparent: 'true',
showLogo: 'false',
clickUrl: '/galleries',
showThumbs: 'false',
showButtons: 'false',
crossFadeSpeed: '350'
};
SM.flash.insertSlideshow(720, 544, ssConfig, 'transparent');

You have a category named Galleries and stops the galleries page from working. Delete the "Galleries" category.
The link to yoru galleries page is this.
http://www.sharonbushman.com/galleries
or relative
/galleries
You missed this in post 11. :D
Add this to your CSS center your slideshow.
#userBio {text-align: center;}
Hooray it's running. :clap

YOU ARE SOOOO AWESOME! Thank you :) Now I can relax.
What's a splash anyway? Just a way to link to another part of the website?
In any case...I'm thankful for your help as always!

The splash is a photo that shows up first until your show starts running.

HANG ON A MINUTE................
Allen, why has my banner disappeared when I click on my other nav bar options? Like if I go to "about" or "portfolio" or any of the options, the nav bar isn't showing.

The nav shows but not the banner.
See post 11. You have display: none; in your banner CSS. the one that you
had ' around. You can add comment tags around it to disable or just remove
it .
/* display: none; */
