I am using a responsive slideshow (http://responsiveslides.com/) for some testimonials on a website with the following settings:
jQuery(".rslides").responsiveSlides({
auto: true, // Boolean: Animate automatically, true or false
speed: 100, // Integer: Speed of the transition, in milliseconds
timeout: 10000, // Integer: Time between slide transitions, in milliseconds
pager: false, // Boolean: Show pager, true or false
nav: true, // Boolean: Show navigation, true or false
random: false, // Boolean: Randomize the order of the slides, true or false
pause: true, // Boolean: Pause on hover, true or false
pauseControls: true, // Boolean: Pause when hovering controls, true or false
prevText: "Previous", // String: Text for the "previous" button
nextText: "Next", // String: Text for the "next" button
maxwidth: "", // Integer: Max-width of the slideshow, in pixels
navContainer: "", // Selector: Where controls should be appended to, default is after the 'ul'
manualControls: "", // Selector: Declare custom pager navigation
namespace: "rslides", // String: Change the default namespace used
before: function(){}, // Function: Before callback
after: function(){} // Function: After callback
});
However, the first slide lasts almost double the other slides. Does anyone know how to fix this or why it is happening? Any help would be really appreciated!
You can see the error at this page: http://www.hbprojectsltd.co.uk/testimonials
The reason is because you have the same testimonial twice.
If you look at the source code for the page, it shows that the first testimonial is exactly the same as the second. The slide animation is happening but because it looks the same, it looks as if nothing has happened.
