You can just use a "link" node instead of a page and add the URL that you'd like. The image associated with the node will show up in the slideshow. Does that make sense?

I tried this but it did not work. I added a seventh slide as link to the Home Slideshow portal using the same image as the Slider 6 and linked to http://www.yahoo.com. It comes up exactly as slide 6. No link to yahoo.
This is a basic install of Greptem bundle with all the content: http://www.vistest.net.
Thanks,
Dave

I'm running into the same issue. The source of the page shows each href to be different, however clicking the images only goes to the LAST link.
Anyone come up with a solution?

If you'd like to see the error live, go to my site @
http://www.connect4solutions.com
When you view the source for the page, you can see each link represented in the source code as expected. However if you hover over the image that is currently displayed, it always shows the LAST one only.
It's almost as if Nivo isn't translating correctly.

Hey guys, I think I've fixed your issue. If you want a new bundle, shoot us a message via the Contact Form. Otherwise, try dropping this code into your home.cfm template found under {SiteID}/includes/themes/greptem/templates/
<cfset feed=$.getBean("feed").loadBy(name="Home Slideshow")>
<cfset iterator=feed.getIterator()>
<cfif iterator.hasNext()>
<div id="featured_slider">
<cfloop condition="iterator.hasNext()">
<cfset item=iterator.next()>
<a href="#item.getURL()#" class="nivo-imageLink">
<img src="#item.getImageURL(width=960,height=380)#" alt="#HTMLEditFormat(item.getMenuTitle())#" />
</a>
</cfloop>
</div>
<cfelse>
<p class=”notice”>Your feed has no items.</p>
</cfif>Also, note that this feed is using the Home Slideshow Content Collection which has a default limit of eight (8) items. So just be aware of that.
Thanks for reporting your issue.

Steve,
THANK YOU!
That worked like a charm.
Was it something with the size not registering? Or something with the alt tag? I racked my brain on it and would like to know just in case I make mods...

Ultimately, it was a combination of a closing div tag in the wrong place and an extra div wrapper that wasn't needed. In addition, I explicitly set the image width and height so that images will be cropped and sized to fill the entire banner area and a few other things as well.
Glad it worked for you,
-Steve

Hello
I'm a french developper and I have a problem in your theme.
I should want to know if your theme is compatible with menu and sub-menu for pages and category.
I created 3 pages menu and 3 of them have sub-menu. But when I put my mouse on them, I never see the sub-menu.
You can see that here : http://iplaytheme.com/
Under Association, there are 3 other pages. But it is not possible to see them.
Have you a solution for me?
Excuse me for my bad english, I hope that you understand me.
Gretaings.
