Nivo Slider Problem

Hi, I have a problem with Nivo slider, I have made a shortcode for WP, the UI should fadeIn after hovering the slider. On the first slide everything works fine but when the slide changes the fade is gone, it just appears after some time without an animation, any idea what might be the cause of this? I have no clue what could be a reason of such behavior… any help would be great

P.S Do we have to buy the Nivo slider pro license to post it in out themes? I recently noticed that a Pro version appeared on the website.

Hello MPC . Make sure your UI DIV has a high z-index. Nivo slides have random z-index that might be exceeding the one on your UI DIV . Just give it z-index:99999. Hope it works.

Unrelated – You probably already know this but Nivo has a known issue (just bought it) – by default it stacks images for a split second when loading the page or hitting refresh button…pretty annoying and ugly. You have to add something like this to your css file to fix it (customized to your settings of course):

.nivoSlider { position:relative; width:940px; height:400px; background:url(images/loading.gif) no-repeat 50% 50%; } .nivoSlider img { position:absolute; top:0px; left:0px; display:none; } .nivoSlider a { border:0; display:block; }
