Vertical slider

I am wondering if someone can tell me how to create a vertical slider with thumnails beside the slide? Is there a mod that can do such function?

Thank you.

Re: Vertical slider

Find a slider you like on the Web, and we can give pointers on integrating it into Zen Cart. You can find many such things on sites like dynamicdrive. Some may be easier to work with than others.

Re: Vertical slider

Here is one at Dynamic Drive, horizontal or vertical:

and this one:

If it fits your needs then I am sure we can help with integrating that mod into Zen Cart - just as Glenn mentioned above.

Re: Vertical slider

Thank you all for your kindness. Much appreciated, the zencart community is the best community I've ever seen.:hug::hug::hug:

I found some examples:

  1. Example1 , I like this one very much

  2. Example2, this one is also great

I would like the thumbnail can be flexible, maybe with an added text description (other than simply a thumbnail) would be even useful in terms of advertisement, right?

If anyone can use the code behind to customize my slide here, it would be really really appreciated, not by me, but by everyone in the zencart community!:clap::clap::clap:

OK, I gave up. The examples I am looking for is most likely too challenging. Could you please help on integrating the first example that has vertical slide?

Thank you.

Re: Vertical slider

I don't think anyone's going to buy the Sliderpro script to integrate it for you. The second one seems very limited in functionality, though it does what it does nicely. So it may not be worth the time to integrate unless someone wants it for themselves.

The one suggested in Free Addons (post #5) should be ready to go and not require additional tutorials, so if you want that just start in on it.
The DD Continuous Reel Slideshow (post #6 first) and the Translucent slideshow (post #6 second) will probably integrate in a very similar manner to the one in Free Addons. I am not a javascript specialist, so not the best one to investigate this.

Thank you for your reply, I am not expecting anyone to buy something for me although it's welcome:yes::yes::yes:

Re: Vertical slider

Thanks for the link in your pm.

I had a good look at your site and I think you have got the job ahead.

Reasons:

  1. all slider images need to be resized to fit the width of the mainWrapper and/or any proposed vertical slider
  2. the stylesheet needs a good 'clean up' as most of your containers (header, nav wrapper, slide show) are not lining up vertically
  3. your site is using a modified version of the free template 'Aberdeen Neutral' - you may also want to read through the support thread of that template for further clues
