FAQs
Q: Why is my slideshow flashing so fast?
A: You’ll need to check the speed set on the Slideshow Speed. You can increase this speed if the slideshow is running too fast.
Q: Do I have to have the lightbox to see the slideshow?
A: Not at all! You can check out our sister product Soliloquy and the Soliloquy Dynamic Addon to easily create on page sliders from Envira galleries.
Q: Why can’t I see the controls for the slideshow?
A: If you’re not using one of the Base lightbox themes, you’ll need to click the Enable Gallery Toolbar? from the Lightbox tab in order to see the play and pause controls for the slideshow.
Q: Can I use the Slideshow Addon with albums?
A: Absolutely! The Slideshow tab is also available when creating or editing an Envira Album.
