Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/templates/pure_black/jscript/jscript_easySlider.js"></script>

Suggest you update your installation instructions and possibly look at replacing the hard coded template name.

Thank you very much for mentioning this!
However this line is totally useless and in fact if you replace it with your actuall template directory name it will brake down the script.

So it is safe to remove it.

The jscript_easySlider.js is automatic loaded in the <head> section, so it is not needed to be in this file too.

I will publish an update as soon as possible.

1)Everything works great when I add an image but when I want to delete one of the slides I get an error message:

"1054 Unknown column 'slideshow.image' in 'where clause'
in:
[DELETE FROM zen_slideshow WHERE slideshow.image='PICT00022.jpg']
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields."

2)Is there a way to adjust the slide speed?

Thanks again, this add-on was very helpful!

Hey i am happy that you find it useful :smile:

In order to solve this error open the file "ADMIN/slideshow.php"

and replace line 73 which says this

Code:

$slideshow_query = "DELETE FROM " . TABLE_SLIDESHOW. " WHERE slideshow.image='$slide_remove'";

with this

Code:

$slideshow_query = "DELETE FROM " . TABLE_SLIDESHOW. " WHERE " . TABLE_SLIDESHOW. ".image='$slide_remove'";

I will update this to the next version i will upload.
Thank you.

In order to adjust slide speed open templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/jscript/jscript_easySlider.js and edit line 52.
The speed is in milliseconds.You might have to clean your browser's cache in order to see the change effects.

I have submitted an updated version of the module with fixed the bugs you mentioned and added the options to adjust speed and other slideshow settings at the define_main_page.php

I hope it is ready for download soon.

Re: Frontpage Slideshow support thread

Just installed it on my test server works great :bigups:, just a few things the folder your_language is a bit confusing as there's no mention about renaming it also can I center the price it's over to the right of the red roundel image at the moment. will this work with fade in slide show installed I'd like to keep both if possible with the frontpage mod beneath the text.

I have installed this MOD "out of the box" and renamed the files to represent my template and admin etc, also updated the database.

I created 3 entries (picture width 176px, height 250px) but they do not SLIDE, they apear underneath one another.

What have I done wrong?

Picture included

How can I get it to display as a slideshow?

Re: Frontpage Slideshow support thread

Something is conflicting with JQuery.
First of all make sure you have renamed SITE/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE with your specific template name.

Then do you have any other jquery script loaded?
If you want

If you want send me a pm to your shop's page to see what other scripts are loaded.
