Frontpage Slideshow

[londonhogfan]

it would be nice for this to just pull posts from a board.  if you used the same pictures for many topics you could just match the photos with the subject icon so depending on the icon you select when you create the topic it would chnage the background.

then just have topic title at the top with a by: "poster" below it.

then a set amount of the body below that.

I have no idea how to do it, but it would be cool and make this a very easy block.

try putting in the colors manually to each slide like this:

Code Select Expand


<h1><a href=http://yoursite.com/>
Heading Goes here!</a></h1>


u could try

Code Select Expand


<h1><a href=http://yoursite.com/>
<font color="#00FF00">Heading Goes here!</font></a></h1>


I notice in IE6, then heading information area background is solid and stand out even better   :up:

I just downloaded the modules.zip, unzipped it, and uploaded the folder/sub-folders to my forum root. I then created a front page block with the exact code listed on the first post and placed it into a scriptbox as noted. It doesn't work. What I get is really ugly (see below). Normally, I would just think this is a css problem (i.e. not referencing the css file properly or something, but the sides or image functions don't work at all), but I'm not sure what is wrong. I had tried changing the urls to match my domain, but thinking that I screwed something up I changed it back to the exact code above and it still doesn't work.

Can anyone help me figure out what's going on? I really need to stop working on this stuff so late

Just read through this post, and the same error have been addressed, so read through the thread and try the diffrent codes posted, one of them might just work

A script can be interfearing with this one. Check to see what other scripts you have and try deactivating some to see if that works

Hi Aku.
I found this front page slide show. my questions will be pretty much the same here i guess. Powered by SMF 1.1.2 and in concert with Tiny Portal v. 0.9.7.
I see a code  indicated as for every additional slide to be placed in it.
I quite possibly see the application having as many as 100 images at one time.
Is there a way to relate the viewer to a File folder instead of a quik code for every image? I had planned to install them manually into a folder in my C-Panel for all the cats neeeding homes from shelters and such.
I hope it can do more than the five you illustrated in your site then. I am guessing that it was a quik set-up for illustration of function. Lifes a real crunch rite now. planning to open on the 25th

edward, I am a little confused on what you are saying.
You are using 1.1.2 and TP098.

You are having the same problem as skyview... ok i see...

* Brianjw think for a second

What other blocks are you using? Have you modified the theme you are using? What theme are you using?
Answer those three questions and I will be able to help you, also one more. Can you give us a link to your website?
