    Idea or Suggestion Re: ACoin Homepage Slider Support

    Yeah, only one thought per post.

    You might consider not overwriting the define_main_page.php I had a pretty good start on text for that page before installing.

    I know, I should have had a backup, but this is a new dev site and is not ready for prime time yet.

    Just a thought.

    I have

        $('#coin-slider').coinslider({ width: 580, heignt: 280, navigation: true, delay: 5000 });
        });
    </script><!-- Effects to place in JS above
    width: 580, // width of slider panel
    height: 280, // height of slider panel
    Is there somewhere else that I need to adjust these widths?

    When originally released there was a error in the code with the height of the slider, I updated it in the new release as well as a bug with the location of the images.

    But to fix it all you need to do is change
    Code:
    $('#coin-slider').coinslider({ width: 580, heignt: 280, navigation: true, delay: 5000 });
    to

    Code:
    $('#coin-slider').coinslider({ width: 580, height: 280, navigation: true, delay: 5000 });
    The error was in the spelling of height. You can customize the height and width to match the images you want to use

    I appreciate your feedback, when creating it I put a note in the instructions but even thought that it may be an issue if someone did not read all the instructions. I can understand how this would be a issue and I will definitely look into just adding the code into the read_me.txt file for the next release to fix this issue. Thank you for the feedback.

    Default Re: ACoin Homepage Slider Support

    I've got this up and running today and looks great. I have just 2 problems however. When loading the page, it takes at least 3 seconds before you see the slider. Prior to this, it's just text/images listed on the page. Does anyone else have this problem? Anyway around it? Also when testing in IE when you hover over the scroller, the text is all underlined? Anyway around this? Thanks

    What is the code on your define_main_page.php page? I can try and find the problem for you as this should not be an issue.

    Do you have any other .js files in your jscript folder? The script seems to be correct, one thing I have seen if someone has other .js files it interferes with it some times.

    Only other .js files are to do with googleanayltics.

    Default Re: ACoin Homepage Slider Support

    I think I've sorted it, but not sure why. I have removed the following code from my tpl_footer relating to a godaddy site seal and it works fine now.

    <span id="siteseal"><script type="text/javascript" src="https://seal.godaddy.com/getSeal?sealID=vHpZqMYvDwyGX7XGdrs5GCML"></script><br/><a style="font-family: arial; font-size: 9px" href="https://www.godaddy.com/ssl/ssl-certificates.aspx" target="_blank">SSL certificate</a></span>

    Any ideas why this would affect it?

    Apologies, I got married a few weeks back and left to the Caribbean for a few weeks for my honeymoon and got back a few days ago with a lot to catch up on.

    It sounds like the javascript was interfering with the code, I can not look at the JS for the go daddy script if you can get that I could try and create a work around for you so you can have both.
