News Box Manager vs. 1.4 - How to fadeout?

[erwin208]

the read-me tells:
------------------------------------
The News are shown in a Sidebox.
You can chose between a static list or a java fadeout effect.
------------------------------------

where can I find these settings?

Has anyone found out how to activate the Java Fade with this mod?

Thanks

As i described in the readme_EN.txt you will find this settings in the file
\includes\templates\template_default\sideboxes\tpl_news_scroll_box.php

Look at line 26 to get the sidebox settings

// Begin of News Sidebox Config
$layout = 1; // 0 = Java Script Fader | 1 = Static 10 last news
$shown_news = 10; // Number of Shown News
// End of News Sidebox Config

thanx for this information.

now I tried to re-install it but when loading the SQL true PHPMyAdmin I get an error:

SQL-query:

SELECT *
FROM `configuration`
WHERE CONCAT_WS( "-", '', 'News Box Character Count', 'NEWS_BOX_CHAR_COUNT', '200', 'Set the number of characters (bytes)
= "news_box_char_count"
ORDER BY '', 'News Box CharacterCount ', 'NEWS_BOX_CHAR_COUNT ', '200 ', '
SET the number of characters(
bytes LIMIT 0 ,
30
MySQL retourneerde:

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'News Box Character Count ', ' NEWS_BOX_CHAR_COUNT ', ' 200 ', ' Set the numbe' at line 1
-----------------------------------

who knows a solution or cause or both ?!

you shouldn't need to reinstall the sql stuff... just change the php file and reupload it. that's what I did.

HOWEVER... I have an issue, and had to turn the fading back off, (even though it's very cool)

When I have the fading on, it also fades out my product listing titles, and they don't fade back in, they just stay gone. HELP? it doesn't affect anything else on the page, just the product listing titles. I am having other issues with those titles too, but at least with the fading turned off, they stay on the page... LOL

hi grayceworks,

You wrote : just change the php file and reupload it.

But what and how must it be changed?
