Showing picutes as 'slideshow' ?

Post non-phpwcms related topics here - but I don't want to see "hey check this or that other cms". Post if you have a point or worthwhile comment, don't post just to increase you post count!

Showing picutes as 'slideshow' ?

Post by oeconom »

Hi community,

I'd like to present some pictures on every article, followed one by another as a slideshow.
Please help me with your experiences what progrem/technique/... to untilize best for this purpose.
I know that there's photokorn with which this should work and slideshow pro (for which you need Adobe Flash + flash skill).

Thanks for your recommendations, best wishes,
FELIX

you could do the slideshow with JavaScript.
take a look here: http://miniajax.com/

there is something available for mootools, which is included into phpwcms for the slimbox
maybe this:

http://smoothgallery.jondesign.net/

I do not know them and I don't know how they works in detail.
Implementation in phpwcms depends on your knowlege in JS Libs and Php(wcms) - but it is possible ;-)

hope that helps to start.

one last question regarding slideshowpro...:
I do have a flash 2004 mx license but honestly don't really know to use it.

Will I be able to create slideshows with slideshow pro if I'm not familiar with flash or xml?

Anyone who's experiences with slideshow pro...

Thanks,
FELIX

Sure oeconom !
SlideShow Pro is (as you know) a terrific and affordable piece of software.
I am not an experimented Flash guy and still, just by reading the PDF Guide I have been able to find how to set the only parameter that was giving me trouble (the path to the slideshow -- if I recall?)

I would have to reinstall it where it was running (before server crash) to check this again. I was thinking about reinstalling it for a current project I have.. maybe in the next days when I have time ...

Cheers,

Yves

hello

but this one requires an coppermine installation :-)

i don't know if this works with the new version! try it ...
download
i would place the file into frontend_render

then you would have an tag like this {SLIDESHOW:1} The 1 is the number of the categrory you want display.[/img]
