Joomla Templates

Hiho!

Almost done with the new Gamma Ray page. Just want to add a cool element, that's a kind of slide-show, like here: http://transparentbliss.joomlabear.com/

Does anyone quickly know how to add / install that module to my existing page?! http://joomla.gammaray.org/

Would be awesome to add some coll sliding in pictures on the starting page!

Thanks,
Harald.

Hi Harald,

you want setup it with the same style and the same extension as the demo page?


Regars,

GermanBear

Yes, I think this would be great. Don't know which other possibilieties I'd have!

I would change the pictures and mybe leave out the pop-up "No Title" & "Joomla Demo" notice that comes from the top if you go on it with the mouse!

:-)

Just missed you being online I think!

Harald.

ok, helloweenie and I wrote over Messenger and I help him with the setup in the next days.

The "way" we make it, I wrote later here.

Regards,

GermanBeat

We have finished the installation and here is a small How-To what was the way.

1.Download Slideshow Pro
2.Install it on your joomla over the extension manager
3.Create a directory over for example the media manager at /images/slideshow
4.Upload images with the size you want in the created folder. In the TransparentBliss Demo we use images with 562 x 250 px
5.Go in the backend under Extensions >> Module Manager >> Select SlideShow Pro
6. On the left site setup this:
Show Title: No
Enabled: Yes
Position: user9
7.On the right side set the Image Folder to: images/slideshow and Show All Images to yes.
8.Under Advanced Parameters set the Number of Images to 1
9.Under Other Parameters set the Image Width and th Image Height to the size your uploaded pictures have.
10.Save the configuration and see at your frontend a nice Slideshow

Hope it helps.

Dear GermanBear!

It's really unimaginable how much you helped with this as well! I am so thankfull, your service is absolutely a HIGH RATE PRO Service and friendly all the time!

I think the future page will kick ass, the first reactions I got are great so far!

I am now only trying to figure out, which transition effect is used in the Transparent Bliss 3 template is used, because I want my pictures fading into eachother like in the template... maybe someone else here knows?!

Rock and Bear on!!!
Harald.

Hi,

in between I found RokSlideShow and add the modul at the same position! It contains the fading transition effect I have been looking for, but I have trouble getting rid of the image border: http://joomla.gammaray.org/

Harald.

the module for slideshow seems to work great, though sorry for a newbie question - is it possible to increase/decrease delay between showing the images? I think this shouldn't be hard to do but I don't know if the module's code can be edited.

Hi scept1c,

you can setup the delay in the backend under Extensions >> Modul Manager >> SlideShow Pro
on the right side under Advanced Parameters you see the delay and there you can setup it.

Hi iris,

welcome at JoomlaBear.com :-)

Have you enabled the module? Which template in which version you use?

Can you post a link to your site?

GermanBear

Hi GermanBear,

I tried to delete the rokslideshow module and install slideshow pro instead on my polarbear site. However I get an error message when trying to install the module:

* JFolder::create: Infinite loop detected
* Advarsel! - Kunne ikke flytte fil

(It says "unable to move file"). Any idea what might be the problem?

Ok I solved it after some googling. Apparently its a fairly common problem arising when you change servers: forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=470& amp...19b9d31&start=30
