using the direct index.php link rather than the sef url, the slideshow shows up just fine on mobile

so you have to find the problem, by my side I can not do anything more
I have pointed the problem :) but I can not solve it. I don't know which rule is in cause and what it is doing bad

Ok, I've tried putting the standard htaccess file back in, and then tried commenting out every line, one at a time. None of that changed the behavior, except for the ones that led to an error. Otherwise, the pictures just will not show up when using an SEF URL on mobile. So, it does not seem to be a rule that is causing this, unless you can think of something I haven't tried.

I tried:
disabling Admin Tools completely.
disabling Simple Mobile Detection.
using Protostar template.
using the demo data.

So, we have ruled out the htaccess rules, Admin Tools, Simple Mobile Detection, the pictures, and the template as the problems.

Can you think of anything else I haven't tried? Is it at all possible (I hate to even suggest it) that there might be a bug?

as you said, if you disable the htaccess + url rewriting it works. Right ?

are you using a SEF extension ?

Is it at all possible (I hate to even suggest it) that there might be a bug?

a bug in your website :D
seriously, I can not tell "no", but you are the only one for now to have this problem since years of use for Slideshow CK. And it works with no SEF...so I don't think it is bug, but if finally you find a but in it I will totally apologize :)

No, if I disable the whole htaccess, I just get an error. But I switched in the standard Joomla htaccess with no changes, and then tried commenting out each line. Didn't help.

No SEF extension -- just the built-in SEF of Joomla, set in the Global Config.

If I ignore the SEF url and just use the direct index.php link, it works, which is what makes me think there may be some sort of conflict between the slideshow and Joomla's built-in SEF, at least in the latest version of Joomla, though why it only happens on mobile is a mystery.

I installed another slideshow component. I put it on the same page, drawing the images from the same folder, at the same size, using the same protocol (loadposition) to show it. It works fine on both desktop and mobile.

This would suggest to me that the problem is in the Slideshow CK module. As far as I can tell, it seems to have an issue with Joomla's built-in SEF, but only on mobile. This issue may only have appeared in the last Joomla update.

Thanks,

is it possible that you use something called "xtd adaptive images" on your website ?
if yes, please deactivate it and try. Let me know
