Hi
Is it possible to diable the Amy Sliders scripts from loading on mobiles/tablets if I don’t use it on these devices?
Thanks
it’s possible by adding few lines of code by wordpress conditional check wp_is_mobile(). But i’m not sure what you want to display instead of the slider
Hi Thanks for your reply. I am displaying different content instead of Amy Slider. Just some simple info boxes .
Can you please advice how to use wp_is_mobile() to disable the scripts? I have been doing some searching online but couldn’t find a solution that worked. Thanks
Please open support ticket at https://cray.ticksy.com
Done. Thanks
Lots of people are complaining about issues—that should work out of the box without trouble… OR at least post a HELP section with various solutions. I posted a ticket – yet there are no solutions posted.
So this is warning to anyone else thinking of purchasing this addon—it’s a 50/50 crap-shoot if it will work without support. ARG!
Hi Raydianze, the plugin works “Out of the box” but when your theme developer modifies heavily Visual Composer (like in your case with the 7 theme) there is no way for me to overwrite this changes. As i said few times before here in the comments the error message is the same but the reason causing this are different and depends on the theme/visual composer modifications from the theme author. There is no single fix. I have replayed to your ticket with fix
Thanks for the VERY QUICK FIX! Sincerely appreciated…
I have been trying to figure out why the header issue comes up. When i install the plugin it creates a folder under the plugins called “ab_ct_amy_slider1”. When i remove the “1” at the end the header issue disappears but it still does not show up under the VC panel for me to use it. Any thoughts why it is doing this?
Hi frigginjoke, did you check my replay or your ticket? If you still have this problem can you please provide me with ftp access to your WP folder
Maybe the best idea would be is to give the instructions as to how a person can fix the problem they have after the plugin is installed and it does not show up.
” if you don’t see it with your other VC elements then most likely your theme author has modified the plugin and removes the default VC shortcode mapping.”
As for the plugin not having a valid header, I ran into that problem, and instead uploaded it via FTP and then activated it which seems to work fine except i cannot find it anywhere, but not header issue.
I submitted a support last week and still waiting for a solution.
Hi frigginjoke, sorry for the delay please check your ticket
Hi Guys , I posted this ont he support forum, but it seems such a widespread error that putting in the FAQ section can be beneficial – it could save some time. (I’m talking about this error: The plugin does not have a valid header)
Hi ellos, the error message is the same but the reason causing this are different and depends on the theme/visual composer modifications from the theme author. There is no single fix
Got it. Thank you.
Hi, i bought the plugin, but i’m not sure how to start, where to use it or put it, where to configure it? I’m with wordpress 4.1 Visual composer 4.4.2 I know how to use visual composer and i’ve worked with other plugins for visual composer, but a i cant find an amy slider module or how to put it in page. As of right now it just shows that its a plugin on my wordpress dashboard …. please help ASAP
Hi colorbombdesigns, if you don’t see it with your other VC elements then most likely your theme author has modified the plugin and removes the default VC shortcode mapping. Please open support ticket at http://cray.ticksy.com/ with url user and pass for your WP admin and i’ll take a look asap

Hello! I’m having a little trouble getting started. I installed the plugin,set up the query for and the pages but nothing is displayed. it’s likely something small i did look at the documentation but it isn’t extremely detailed, your help would be greatly appreciated
Hi missfortune, the queried posts must have featured images in order to be displayed. Just make sure that you have selected featured images
that did work thank you very much will be rating 5 stars
Hi. Loving the plugin.
I have a problem. I am trying to alter the slide thumbnail image sizes but whatever pixel dimensions I enter through the slider edit panel it makes no difference. I currently have the image size set to 902×566, on screen the images have a dimension of 471×275px.
If you go to the dev site http://bit.ly/1B1NKRq you’ll be able to see the problem.
Thanks
Hi barrow, i’m glad that you like it. Slider slides have fixed width due to it’s nature and the why how it works. If you want to use bigger images you should change several css styles
Hi. Thanks for the prompt reply. I altered the slide image sizes as you suggested with css but I’ve now got a problem with overlapping. The images underneath are showing through the main image and I can’t work out where to amend the code.
I’m imagining it’s something to do with the svg viewBox?
Any suggestions with this problem?
Can you please open support ticket @ http://cray.ticksy.com/ and i’ll point you which css you have to edit. Let me know which scrolling effect you are going to use
Hi. I logged a support post as requested 5 days ago, any update? Thanks
Hi barrow, i have replayed to your ticket
Thanks. I have replied back as it didn’t quite work as anticipated.
Any update on my support question please?
Hi barrow, please check the ticket reply
Hi. Can I please have some support for ticket: #358404? Thanks
Any chance I can get some support please for my ticket. I know you’re available as you’re answering other posts. Thanks
Hi barrow, Your case is not actually support but custom work which is related with browser bug and your theme(which will take me a lot of time to debug). I’m sorry i’ll look in to it again soon but keep in mind that there are support tickets with general problems that have higher priority.
I would have to disagree. The fact that all I wanted to do was increase the size of the images didn’t seem that much of a request for a plugin. I would have thought this was a requirement of a slider plugin. It just isn’t as adaptable as it first seems.
Wonderful plugin!
Can I put a custom URL for images within the slider? Like in this example http://themes.cray.bg/amyslider/slider-style-three/ , is it possible to set an external link when clicking on the image?
Thanks!
Hi youarenature, thank you. Yes you can change buttons links to custom urls but the images are not clickable
Thanks for your answer!. Any change in the following updates to make the images also clickable?
Some of the slider styles can’t have clickable img due to their design nature. But i’ll add more styles. I have lots of ideas for improvements and new features.
hello,
I am not really catching whether Amy Slider also works with just images? (no posts, pages etc.)
thx for clarification! oliver
Hi Oliver, currently the slider works only with post, pages etc but i’ll include in my next update only image slider
thx! – looking forward to this great extension of this wonderful extension! 
hey
i just now did buy the plugin. when insalling it i get this message:
“The plugin does not have a valid header”
site url: bizmaster.co.il
please help asap
Hi Eli please check your ticket
It’s fixed
Great plugin. How did you go about creating the 6 static images with the mouse over? I have tried making 3 columns in visual composer then make an amy slider in each column, but they just keep going down to each line. So I’m stumped.
HI Freerangecamping, try to add 3 column row and then in each column add new row for every slider
Hi I would like to achieve the exact effect you are using on your demo home page (bottom of the page – see attached). Can you please explain how to do that?
that’s the one : Style Required
Thanks Thank you
