Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

[Neets]

Hi I have a small issue with getting this slideshow to work on my site. I have zen cart 1.3.8 and just applied apparel boutique only last night onto my site. It is looking good but I am very much a novice (as my Uncle actually built the site and I have previously only maintained it) and I think where my problem is, I deleted the script on in my admin section - define pages editor/main page
I have copy pasted the code for the slideshow which is in the read me files but I think i am missing some information.

I have already done the slides up and loaded them in the appropriate place on the cpanel - if I can add the correct text to the define pages editor I think it should work...

Is anyone able to help me out with that??

many thanks

ZC 1.39Trying to uninstall this mod 9Local copy) and have run into a problem.

I followed the instructions and removed the files first then ran the uninstall.sql. Got a "Failed" message after running the uninstall.sql from the admin area.

Slideshow still shows up on the Admin/Tools pulldown as well.

I'd like to figure this out before attempting to remove it from my live site.

Help please.

I have this working great i only have one question, i would like to always have a certain image when the slide restarts or going to the home page, I tried to upload that image first but that didn't seem to work. Is there a way to achieve this ?

Thank you

Not a darn thing.
All I get is " FAILED" across the top of the screen.

Hi
this is a very nice Slideshow indeed, thanks!

My Question

how do I change the code so that slideshow takes its pictures by default from my images/large directory where I have my large product-images stored,
instead of includes/templates/my_template/images/slideshow/

kind regards

Hello,

So I have decided to go ahead and install this "Frontpage Slideshow", however I have never done a add-on install and the install instructions do not make much sense to me. So, at this point I am not confident enough to do the install until I can get a clearer picture on how to do the install.

Can someone please provide a further explanation to the given instructions listed below.


1. Rename ADMIN to your admin's folder name

Okay this step makes sense to me

2. Rename YOUR_TEMPLATE to your template's folder name

Okay this step makes sense to me

3. Copy all folders and files from ADMIN and SITE to your website

Where do I copy them to? What directory?

4. Copy contents of file 'slideshow.sql' and run through admin->tools->Install SQL Patches

Where do I copy them to? What directory?

5. Go to admin->tools->slideshow and add/edit/delete your slides

Okay this step makes sense to me


Your help is appreciated.

3. Copy all folders and files from ADMIN and SITE to your website

You need to ftp these files to your site ..use filezila

4. Copy contents of file 'slideshow.sql' and run through admin->tools->Install SQL Patches

as it says copy ALL the code in the file and go to sql patches in your zencart admin and run it ..www.website/admin

hope this helps
