WP theme help

Quick question for anyone who is familiar with WP themes. I have purchased one from themeforest and have got it installed but Im struggling to get the slides to work the way they do in the live preview where they are automated and scroll through 6 different slides.

I have set up 2 slides but they both appear on the home page at the same time and I cant work out how to get them to have any sort of transition etc.

Here is a link to the live preview so you can see what I mean and hopefully tell me what I am doing wrong.

Im not sure if its anything to do with portfolios but any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Link to your site as it is please to compare. Without seeing the settings it's hard. Might be worth contacting support of the theme as every theme is different settings.

Test site is here http://www.mark-m.co.uk/WP2/

Will drop the developer an email in the morning but just thought it might have been something obvious I was missing?

Thanks again

Nothing particularly obvious as far as I can see. Nothing is breaking your JS completely on that page as your fancy box still works further down the page. But the bxSlider isn't applying the inline styles it should to the list elements so something is stopping that from working.

e.g. Yours

Code:

<ul id="jquery_slider"><li></li></ul>

e.g. Theirs

Code:

<ul id="jquery_slider"><li style="list-style: none outside none; position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; z-index: 98; opacity: 0;"></li></ul>
