Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

I have "CSS Horizontal Dropdown Menu With jquery" running too.
Good point had not thought of this.

I can't send you a url, as I have the site running on xampp.

Any way of overcomming this problem?

I really need a slideshow running on my home page and have been looking for a suitable script.

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

Try to remove this other JQuery script first to make sure that this is causing the problem.

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

Installed on my current rebuild (starting from scratch instead of updating), works great!
Would it be possible to integrate a play/pause button?
Maybe something like THIS.

Thanks

Open your stylesheet.css file and find #columnCenter (should be line 86), and add some padding to the top.
You currently have:

#columnCenter {
padding: 0 10px;
background: white;
}

The 0 10px makes it so there is zero padding top and bottom and 10px right and left.

Try this:

#columnCenter {
padding: 10px;
background: white;
}

Hope this helps

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

Currently testing on my local site, so no link.

Using ZC 1.39

Is it possible to move the red button thingy, or even remove it completely? I'd like to have it in the lower left corner of the images I'm using.

The position of the red stamp like image that shows up under the price (if you have that active...) is controlled by the price class in the css near the top of the define_main_page.
Mine was in the lower left when it showed up with the setting:

.price{
	position: relative;
	top: -35%;
	left: 0;
}

I did throw this up on my live store while I'm working on the new one if you want to check it out - HERE

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

Serious-
if you were talking about the "numbers" indicating what slide is currently displayed those are positioned using the control_div id (#control_id) in the same css.
Change the left to 0 instead of 400 and it moves to the left side.
A great way to "play" with is to use chrome, right click on page, select "inspect element" and you can see a little of whats going on, as well as the css... its great for changing things without actually changing them.

Sorry It Dint Worked, I tried different paddings but it affects only left right padding no changes to the white space below slideshow. So i changed back to original settings.

May be its issue with my template, Sorry to trouble you but if you can suggest more it will be kind of you.

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

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

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

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.

Re: Frontpage Slideshow [support thread]

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
daniel

Much appreciated :)
