I figured it out. WinMerge is my friend! I had to merge some stuff from v2.0 to my v2.1 file of index_home.css and it works fine now!

I worked through a lot of the replies on here but thought it would be easier to post my question. Installed the Slider and works great... just one question, at the bottom is a black title bar ... how do i remove this?

The easiest way is to do it through CSS. Open your includes/templates/theme724/css/index_home.css and edit line 61.
Find
and replace withCode:.theme-default .nivo-caption {
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}
Make sure you reload the page or clear browser cache to see the changes. Also, keep in mind this will work for default theme only - if you switch to any other theme (light, dark or bar), you'll need to do the same edit for .nivo-caption for other themes.Code:.theme-default .nivo-caption {
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
display:none !important;
}

Fixed...
Changed opacity to 0
PHP Code:
/* Caption styles */
.nivo-caption {
position:absolute;
left:0px;
bottom:0px;
background:#000;
color:#fff;
width:100%;
z-index:8;
padding: 5px 10px;
opacity: 0;
overflow: hidden;
display: none;
-moz-opacity: 0.8;
filter:alpha(opacity=8);
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box; /* Safari/Chrome, other WebKit */
-moz-box-sizing: border-box; /* Firefox, other Gecko */
box-sizing: border-box; /* Opera/IE 8+ */
}
I have read through several pages of this post to find the answer to my question as I am almost certain that someone has already asked about uninstalling the module, but I don't see it in the short review I have done.
I installed the module and it worked great. Another team member was to upload the images and she didn't quite understand how the module worked, and now somehow the module is no longer working. No other work has happened on the site, so it's not likely interference from another module or script (because it was working fine).
I would like to uninstall it and start again but I do not see any instructions for uninstalling. I know I can simply remove the files that I uploaded. My question has more to do with the SQL file that was uploaded via Admin > Tools > Install SQL Patches.
How do I remove that? I am not a programmer, so please provide simple, step-by-step instructions.
Also, I do plan to reinstall this module and I see that a new version is available, so I'll use it. If I were to first try updating to see if an update will resolve the issue, I assume I would simply upload the new files and let them overwrite what's already there. What I don't know is whether or not the same applies to the SQL file: just upload it and let it overwrite.
Thank you for anything you can share to help me resolve this. No matter which option I choose (uninstall and start over or upgrade to newest version) I would like to know the answer to both questions because it will help me decide on the best option.
1. To uninstall the module, how do I uninstall the SQL script that I uploaded. I want a clean install when I do it again since I do not know what is causing the problem.
2. If I decide to upgrade rather than uninstall, would I upload the SQL file and let it overwrite the one previously installed? I am not a programmer so I don't know if overwriting is actually what would occur.
Thank you for anything you can share.
Actually, Diane, the uninstall code is included in the install.sql file... :smile:
Just open the install-vXXX.sql and take a look at the first 7 lines which are actually uninstall code (in case you run the patch more than once).
But, to simplify things:
Just run this from Tools->Install SQL Patches. As with any other SQL patches, make sure you backup your database before running it.Code:SELECT @ZXconfig:=configuration_group_id
FROM configuration_group
WHERE configuration_group_title= 'ZX Slideshow'
LIMIT 1;
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_group_id = @ZXconfig AND configuration_group_id != 0;
DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_id = @ZXconfig AND configuration_group_id != 0;
Re: uninstall vs. upgrade - I suggest you uninstall first and then install the latest version. There are some new files added and the admin settings have changed so it would be quite hard to upgrade if you're not absolutely sure about what you're doing...

Thank you, Leonard! This is exactly the information I needed to proceed and also for going forward with future updates. Very clear and easy to follow.
Your help is much appreciated!
Hello -
If this has been covered already my apologies. I searched the first 10 or so and last 5 pages of this thread and didn't find what I was looking for.
I'm attempting to configure ZX Slideshow to use the entire width of the main page instead of just the center section of the page (I'm using a 3 column template). When I set the image size for the slideshow to the width of the page (980 pixel) two things happen
1. The image doesn't remain centered. It "grows" to the right and essentially becomes right justified.
2. Instead of pushing the content of the right side boxes down they're essentially overwritten.
Is there any way to get the slideshow to cover the entire page width?
Thanks
It was answered before, but I can't find it either. :smile:
Basically, what you want is to move ZX Slideshow from centerbox to header. This will allow you to utilize the full width of the website.
Remove the ZX Slideshow from tpl_index_default.php and tpl_index_categories.php and then read here. It shows you the code you need to place in your tpl_header.php file to trigger ZX Slideshow.

Hi all,
i was trying to validate my site with WC3 validation and got an error regarding the images:
Error Line 181, Column 67: end tag for "img" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified
<img src="images/slideshow/01-vaniglia_1.jpg" alt="slideshow1">
You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
Someone got the same problem? Anyone fixed it?
