If you scroll down the page to the similar threads section, there are several threads that might help you out.

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Re: how to make a slide show in banner?

thanks for your reply

I find a js named "Ultimate Fade-in slideshow (v2.1)" which is from http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeinslideshow.htm

in the instruction, it says "Simply add the below code inside the <HEAD> section of the page", but where shall I put this code?

is there anyone can explain how to install it in Zen Cart?

thanks

Re: how to make a slide show in banner?

I'm very happy with some slideshow code that I found. All you have to do is paste the code onto the define_main_page

Here's the thread that has the code and explains what I did:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=151991

I'm using the slideshow to put sale announcements or to feature certain products. It works great!

This slideshow doesn't have transition affects, but it works very smoothly so I don't think it matters. I tried working with some similar javascript codes but they had behavior problems. This particular one is really a gem, in my opinion.

Re: how to make a slide show in banner?

You could also put the slideshow code in any of the banner positions.

I'm very happy with this code. It's very easy.

If you want transition effects, then you'll need to use a more complicated code. If I find a way to do it, I will update that thread.

For now, I decided that transition effect is not so important.
