News Flash no longer supported; but - GoFuckYourself.com

At least two of my photo websites offers the viewer the option to view photos individually or as a slideshow.

Before they stopped "supporting" Flash, the slideshow seemed to only do one page at a time. Now, one site plays every photo on every page; and the other just gives me an error saying

Not a browser issue for sure, is this a server side issue?

They have been phasing out flash since about 2011

I know; just trying to figure out why one site it works better than ever.

Why did they get rid of flash?

Flash made some really good looking sites

Without seeing the sites, it's impossible to tell.

I'm wondering if this might point you in the right direction to a solution

The only site that Flash works (better than ever) is craftbeerguy.com

Your slideshow works on craftbeerguy but it is for sure not using Flash. Browsers don't support Flash anymore. Whatever you have there is a different slideshow viewer than pimpspromo, where slideshow does not work.

the beer site looks like you use ngg gallery, correct? if so, they don't use flash anymore which is prob why that one works

what do you use for your galleries on your other site? assuming it's also a wp site, if it's the same plugin you prob just need to update your plugins and theme

Adobe Flash was deprecated due to the perpetual need for security patches and the rise of HTML5.

blackmonsters · 07-07-2021, 01:42 PM

Flash was phased out because Steve Jobs couldn't make his shitty phone work with it.
Then is was political bullshit.

That "security patch" talk is bullshit because nothing got patched and exploited more than Internet Explorer.

Flash always worked fine on a jailbroken iPhone. It was never a case of them not being able to do it, but always that it wasn’t secure and they didn’t want it fucking up their system.

I've got a handful of sites made using flash and this brought them right back online

Either the WP plugin had built in html5 support already for non flash, or they put out an updated one when flash died and you did a normal plugin update.

But it's not flash.
