      The trick is that the slideshow needs to know how many pictures are stored in a album. Start "Tools\Count picutres in album" from the view "Media library\Album list".

        I did that also, but with no result.

          Looking at the form "WebAlbum" you will find this computed text:

          s := "Slideshow";

          s2 := @If(@IsAvailable(ElementCounter);s;"");

          @If(@GetProfileField("WebProfile";"enableSlideshow")="1" ;
          s2 ; "")



          So if

          a) Slideshows are enabled in the profile and

          b) The field "ElementCounter" is available in the album document you should definitely see the Slideshow link.



          Please check that and report back.

            I've done another design refresh, checked all the settings, and it's working ok now!

            A suggestion: is it possible to cache the next picture, just for those who've a slower connection?

              Caching is possible by adding a HTTP Response Header document to your domino servers web configuration. I will write some documentation soon showing how to do that.
