reediting previous slideshows

Hello everybody. Total newbie here. Really neat tool, you' ve got.
Now, once you've made a slideshow, posted it and gone on to create more,
can you come back, reload, and reedit a previously edited slideshow.
I was not able to locate the path to access an existing slideshow.

Re: reediting previous slideshows

Hi,

You can find the URL to reset the Editor to your settings inside your highslide folder in a file named editor-config.txt
Your images will be deleted from our server after a while. We canÔÇÖt tell exactly how long they will remain on the server since the oldest images on the server will be deleted when new images are added.

Re: reediting previous slideshows

Hello Hilde
Thank you for your advice, it worked.

I pasted the very long URL into the browser navigation bar
and it sent me to the front page of the HighSlide editor.
When I clicked on 'get started', it opened the image manager
at the sought-after previous collection. So far so good.

When I requested a reedit for a slideshow that was created
in December, I got some generic images. So I guess about
one month is the time-frame for holding onto your stuff.

Its OK though, because you can still edit the source-code and
the '.css' file in DreamWeaver and update both the pictures
and the comment overlays and change them all you want.

Cheers

Guy

P.S. No wonder I couldn't find the path to load a previous
effort. Its not obvious at all. Would you consider including
a 'load file' command in the editor front end?

Hi Guy,
I will send your suggestion to Torstein, the Highslide developer.
