Can there be multiple instances of Nivo Slider on the same page? If so, how do you implement it? I tried unique #slider IDs in the respective scripts on the page but not sure of the settings to change in the ScriptLibrary js. They are going to be placed in 2 tabbed panels.

Hello David.

There should not be a problem implementing 2 nivo sliders with different settings on one same page.Unfortunately If you want to implement the Nivo Slider in spry tabs that will be not possible.
The extension is tested, works and is cross browser compatible combined with our DMXZone Tabs
