Slideset intermittently doesn't load properly and always refuses to display navigation

http://goo.gl/vfQ3d

I posted multiple widgetkit sildeset modules (v1 final release) on the homepage each containing a slideset and they intermittently refuse to load correctly during the first attempt. each module only displays the first 2 slides instead of all 4 of them in the first slideset. If I reload they display correctly.

I use the widgetkit slideshow in the main position and 6 instances of slideset in the another module position below it. The slidesets are all in the same content-a position, so I can stack them nicely. you can see all the template's module positions here:

Using firebug I was able to track the issue to a Gantry div (I know I hate Gantry as much as you do). There's nothing inside template manager or the module manager that I can find to fix this.

I do notice the CSS resulting difference.

gantry.css (line 17)

CSS WITH ERROR:
#rt-content-top .rt-alpha, #rt-content-bottom .rt-alpha {
left: 400px;
margin-left: 0;
}

CSS NO ERROR:
#rt-content-top .rt-alpha, #rt-content-bottom .rt-alpha {
margin-left: 0;
}

I can't figure out where the 400px is coming from.

  • I have tried disabling all slidesets except for one to see if the issue is resolved and I can still reproduce it intermittently.
  • I have disabled the sidebar-a module to the right of the slidesets and I can still reproduce the issue:

The 2nd issue I have is that slideset navigations are not visible even when chosen in the slideset options:

No this was never fully resolved. The way I solved it was to remove widgetkit and use another program. I have noticed there are issues with the Widgetkit system plugin that pretty much kills other javascripts and prevents them from loading. This occurs regardless of javascript plugin order during load-up.

I am not sure if he resolved the issue - I am having the same problem:
Slideset intermittently doesn't load properly - cuts off some of the content.

I submitted a post on this issue and have not received a response:

Slideset Widgekit cuts off image sporadically - some reports of images not displayed at all.

Good afternoon,

I am not sure how do describe the issue - I have embedded the Slideset Module onto an article and sporadically the images get cut off. I also tried using a template position and had reports of image not completely displaying and one case of not displaying at all.

I am using Joomla 2.5.4

Here is a link to a screen capture of the issue - note the cut off images below the slide show.
