Hi looking forward to trying this mod just wondering whether it works on 1.5 though, have installed but nothing happening in the admin end?

[sport_billy]

Hey thanks for trying.
As mentioned in the instructions it is only tested for 1.3.8 and 1.3.9 versions.

I just saw your post and tried it at 1.5 version and i see that the only that is not working is the display of "Slideshow" in admin->tools menu.

You can still access it by typing youradmin/slideshow.php
Then from there i think that everything works as in previous versions of ZC.
If you insert an image it will display on your shop's frontpage.

I added the neccessary files to make it compatible with 1.5 version of Zen Cart.
I uploaded it at the addons section and it is waiting approval.

Cheers for that sport_billy, I tried the direct url and it comes up so uploaded images but they are not appearing on the site for some reason, just the text slide image?

[sport_billy]

Maybe your pictures are way too larger than the dimensions of the slideshow.
Try a picture around 450 x 300 pixels or change the dimensions through the css file to fit your needs.

Installed on my current rebuild (starting from scratch instead of updating), works great!
Would it be possible to integrate a play/pause button?
Maybe something like THIS.

Thanks

Open your stylesheet.css file and find #columnCenter (should be line 86), and add some padding to the top.
You currently have:

#columnCenter {
padding: 0 10px;
background: white;
}

The 0 10px makes it so there is zero padding top and bottom and 10px right and left.

Try this:

#columnCenter {
padding: 10px;
background: white;
}

Hope this helps
