jQuery Scrolling Sideboxes [Support Thread]

I'll be uploading the subject plugin for review shortly and will post its download URL when I receive it.

This plugin provides three new sideboxes: featured_scrolling, specials_scrolling and whats_new_scrolling. In each case, the sidebox is based on the Zen Cart built-in sidebox with a similar name ... except it only displays one product at a time to reduce the amount of screen "real-estate" required!

Once approved, the plugin can be downloaded here: http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1909

Now available from the Plugins area ...

What are the differences between the new module and this one:

Thanks,

I don't know; I didn't see that one before I developed this plugin. Do you have a site where I could see Clyde's contribution in action?

no ;) But if I remember correctly, it has the product scrolling vertically for new, featured, specials, and possibly best sellers.

Thanks,

I installed Clyde's contribution on a local test site; here are the differences:

1. javascript (6KB) vs. jQuery (1KB)
2. The selections actually scroll, rather than simply changing the image at a defined rate
3. Replaces existing sideboxes, rather than providing additional ones
4. Includes best-sellers, which is on my list ...

You can see this contribution in action at http://test.vinosdefrutastropicales.com.

That sounds great. I am thinking of including this in my new free responsive template packages that I am working on ;)

Thanks,
