vFCoders - Featured Content Slider Widget

[CouponWCents]

I guess I don't understand what to put for the widget

[Magnumutz]

Would you mind sharing your fix?
Search the vbcms_widget_cmsfcs_page template for this:
.cmsfcs_{vb:raw id} .ui-tabs-panel .info{
position:absolute;
top:280px;
left:85px;
height:70px;
width:87%;
opacity: .75;
background: black;
margin: 0 auto;
Change the top value to whatever fits well for you.

Hello,

I have installed the plugin but i cant see the "CMS Featured Content Slider" on the widget type :(

Same for me - I have cleared my system cache. I've uninstalled, and reinstalled using the new .xml Any ideas anyone?

[HCHQ]

Works great on 4.1.9! Only issue is the small preview of the image is squished inwards a little. What is the default height and width of this mini image on the left? Thanks!

[tenizmenu]

I've tried every solution offered in previous posts, but the slider is still not moving and i have the same problem with #fragment-2, 3, 4. The vbulletin version that I use is 4.1.11. Is it the product outdated? If not, can anyone offer me a solution, please?

i have turn it on 4.1.11. There are no problems

So it seems that if Mobile Style is installed, this will conflict with it. Also, if I have another product using jquery it also conflicts with this. I've tried disabling the Mobile Style, but no go, I still can't get it to work. I also tried the "fix" that was listed earlier, no go either. Thought it might just be this mod, but I tried the other Sliders as well, same thing. Anyone have a fix?

ya, just tried with jQt Sliding Log-In / Register, it works fine for non-registered user..
to make it work for all

open Template - jqt_sliding_login

Replace all with this

<vb:if condition="!$bbuserinfo[userid]">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{vb:raw vbcsspath}jqt_slider.css" />

You totally fixed it when I log in but it does not work when I log out and also when I log out it does not completely refresh. You can view my site www.speedaholic.net and if we can get a workaround it's, worth a donation.

Fantastic Mod ..........

A little improvement (but only in my humble opinion)

I dislike the "quick" transition but as has been said this was changed via the js xml coding

But caused some issues in the rendering when used with thumbs - lagging etc so

As has been said in other posts:



lose the thumbs via the vbcms_widget_cmsfcs_page template

.ui-tabs-nav {
display: none;
}


Same template change the script to

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".cmsfcs_{vb:raw id}").tabs({ fx: {opacity: 'toggle', duration:'slow'} }).tabs("rotate", 5000, true);
$(".cmsfcs_{vb:raw id}").hover(
function() {
$(".cmsfcs_{vb:raw id}").tabs("rotate",0,true);
},
function() {
$(".cmsfcs_{vb:raw id}").tabs("rotate",5000,true);
}
);
});
</script>


This will remove thumbs render the images with a nice transition and the codeline below will clean up the info bar

.cmsfcs_{vb:raw id} .ui-tabs-panel .info{
position:absolute;
top:242px;
left:0px;
height:70px;
width:650px;
opacity: .75;
background: black;
margin: 0 auto;
}


This has the width of the slider at 650px and the info bar the same (but obviously change to your site if needed)

It also means you can have a few more articles etc without the rendering being incorrect given the thumbs are removed

as you can see i now have 7 latest articles with a nice smooth transition and an info bar that is 100% for a clean look and render.

Just a thought :)

[Skierpetros]

Hello

awesome mod!

But how can display the slider only in the homepage and not in the page of the full article?

[charlesr]

@skeirpetros: Set up a new layout in the admincp/cms/layout manager.
e.g. you will end up with article layout and homepage layout.
Only put the widget on the homepage layout.
Then edit your sections (click the pencil on the section's page), so your top level section has the homepage layout selected and the other sections have the article layout selected.

[charlesr]

2 questions:

All my other widgets have a title. When I was using the nivoslider it had a title (i.e. whatever I have called the widget)
Is your slider coded to not have one?

Also, I have to choose sections and categories in the widget config. If I add more categories, do I have to go back and add them in the widget config? If so, please may I request an "ALL" option (preferably separate option for categories and sections) so I don't have to? Thanks.

[GamerPerfection]

Can you specify which articles you want displayed on it, or does it just select them automatically?

[charlesr]

Automatically by section/category. You could make a category for "featured" and manually manage the articles with that category applied I suppose.

you have not uploaded slider files.. Download zip from here and upload contents of "Upload" folder inside "vbulletin" folder of your server.

got an issue now. imported my CMS to another board. slider broke. previews show up on right side and the main image is off center and low in the box.

[ar15dcm]

So you are saying upload the contents of the Upload load folder into the root of the forum?

no.. you need to upload "packages" folder in forumroot. (where forum.php file is saved)

[ar15dcm]

Okay I did that multiple times. I already have a packages folder there with the attached in it. I also have a vbcms folder with stuff in it.

Ok if your running the slider with the mod above it conflicts with then change this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.16/jquery-ui.min.js" ></script>


and place the code you removed at the bottom of template: vbcms_widget_cmsfcs_page

[charlesr]

Will it make any difference to page load times if the thumbs in the slider are actually thumbs and not just full size pics, squeezed into less pixels? i.e. they look like 60x40, but are actually 600x400 (numbers just for example).

not really because those thumbs pictures are slider images also. So even if you remove thumbs it won't make a much difference in page load time. Browser loads image one time only and uses cache for subsequent request.

Hi,

I was trying to avoid posting my question without finding anyone with the same problem and hopefully finding a solution to my problem. However, after reading all 24 pages related to this mod, I couldn't find any answers. I installed this mod with absolutely no problems. It works like a charm and I love it! But I cannot get it to show more than 2 featured post in my site. I tried uninstalling it (3x) and installing it again. I tried going into the cmsfcs.php to change the "LIMIT 0, 5" but no luck there either. I also checked the configuration through the widget but everything seems to be okay there as well. I'm I missing something?

I hope someone has any ideas they can share. I'd appreciate it! My website is www.lucynina.com

[charlesr]

Is you cache stuck? Try clearing it in "maintenance"
If not then try allocating sections to your articles - not sure if this should make any difference though.

[craftyone]

I cleaned out the cache but I still can only see two posts in the slider instead of the five that is supposed to show. I'm not sure what you mean about allocating sections though. Thanks for your suggestion.

[charlesr]

In the admin panel, look at your Widget for the slider and configure it. You'll see options to choose which "sections" appear in the slider. Any articles that have not been assigned to one of the sections you see in the list will not appear on the slider.

To create "sections" go to the admin panel and in vbulletinCMS, click on section manager. Think carefully - these are hierachical, so articles can only fit in one section, unlike "categories" which are 1+ for an article.

Then when you create an article, choose the "section" you want it to appear in from the list on the right hand side of the article creation page. Go back and modify the sections for your old articles.

[SRobbins1977]

Hello,
We could use a little help. first... GREAT widget, thank you. Its a great first step to our sites redesign. Feel free to check out how we implemented it on our site: http://wdgaming.net/

To the questions...
1) As you can see from the slider, the small previews along the left side are not the same ratio as the main slider. Is there a way to add a spot to change that under the "Content Slider Box Width" in the configuration for the widget?
2) you may also notice that we have more room to include the preview of text. We would like to change the amount of text that is in the previewer. Is it possible to add that to the configuration widget?

If we need to do some php code, we're not too great at it, so the more detail on changing it would help.
Thank you again.

If we need to do some php code, we're not too great at it, so the more detail on changing it would help.
Thank you again.Im assuming no one knows how to do this as I have not been answered. So I went ahead and reverse engineered it myself.

Answer:
To change the size of the preview windows on the left.

Go to AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Search in Templates
Search for Text > vbcms_widget_cmsfcs_page
open the vbcms_widget_cmsfcs_page style(double click)
Now we change the settings of the preview boxes that are on the left of the slider. Back up the template settings as you will have to calculate the pixel positions based on what you change.
Find ".cmsfcs_{vb:raw id} ul.ui-tabs-nav{ "
--your width setting here sets the width of the preview boxs on the left side of the slider
Find ".cmsfcs_{vb:raw id} ul.ui-tabs-nav li img {"
--Width setting here changes the width of the image in the preview box on the left side of the slider
Now the title and preview text along the bottom needs to be moved over so it lines up with the preview boxes. Depending on the width you changed the preview boxes too will mean you have to calculate how to move these values over.
Find ".cmsfcs_45 .ui-tabs-panel .info {"
--Change the "left:" value to the width of the preview images + 15pixels
--In the same sectionfind width. you will see an equation something like "math {vb:raw width}-70}" the 70 value shown here needs to be equal to the width value we changed above.


I think I remembered it all. I sill need help with changing the preview text amount and now Im wishing I knew how to make the previews fade in rather than FLICK each time.

Any help on making the fading effect? PLEASE help.

EDIT: By The Way vB.org team... Your indents on bullets are not working... just adding a enter return. so I removed them.

SRobbins1977, Looks like you found away to make it work. Whether the panoramic images are on purpose or not to be corrected size at that width it be your whole front page. I think if people wanted to use a fixed forum width of 1024 I can share the template with the sizes I made. Have two, one was the default layout (540) an other was (60,40) .

A point I wanted to make I noticed most didn't make a separate layout for their front page from the rest of the cms articles. If you make a new layout named "Front Page" an copy the format over to it an ad the slider on that layout so you can take it off the "Home" layout your using as the article default.

The template is the widget one you made in the CMS templates. The (60,40) width is configured to 735. The (540) widget size is 525, but the width is hard coded to 540. Didn't dare making it the variable as it's make a mess an need all resized. These are both for use an designed for a fixed width forum size of 1024 with the default template. Oh an guess it won't be an easy swap, there is also hard coded colors in these, dual grays (#dadada, #e1e1e1) used from the default theme. Both located near the top of the template. My forum is closed atm, but for a demo I modeled the look used at http://www.superchevy.com/ only difference is gonna be the colors. Added note I made a layout to match their site also I wanna release soon :)

Added note I made a layout to match their site also I wanna release soon :)The size is intended. :) As you can see we have a 1350 wide page, so having a "HD"(not true HD size) style image seemed like a unique interpretation of the modern web page. But we have a long way to go with the design.

Love what you've done with the layout for the widget. Fits right in with the rest of the page. Some inspiration. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for the tip on not changing the height. Luckly we were happy with is or we would have tried. :)

[jorge_kai]

it's possible to make run this mod in vbulletin 3.8? thanks

[b0wlninja]

ummm so in trying to use your slider i am receving an error message in the admin CP

Fatal error: Class 'vBCms_Item_Widget_cmsfcs' not found in /home/reaper/public_html/packages/vbcms/collection/widget.php on line 234

could you help me in what i did wrong?

[Martyn1983]

Love the idea of this mod, but sadly not working on my forum. The overall box, and previews, displays but there is no transition between the images and selecting the thumbnails just refreshes the homepage.

www.fiat-scotland.com

Appreciate any help.

[svaghari]

1) get rid of the blue borders around thumbnails
2) get red of blue border around entire widget
3) transparent gap between thumbnails?

Hello,

I'm trying to remove the description from slider and let only the title there. I did what you said at:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2236666&postcount=45

1. File packages\vbcms\widget\cmsfcs.php

2. After:

$getarticles['preview'] = strip_quotes($getarticles['preview']);
$getarticles['preview'] = htmlspecialchars_uni(fetch_censored_text(
fetch_trimmed_title(strip_bbcode($getarticles['preview'], false, true, true, true),
100)));

I added:

$getarticles['title'] = fetch_trimmed_title($getarticles['title'], 30);


but this only trims the title to 30 characters and show again the description below. What I want is to show the full title and nothing from description. Where on heck the title is stored? Is it part of pagetext in table cms_article?

Thank you Chris

[jshallo]

Amazing! A Slider that actually WORKS!!!! Thank you.

Hi all,

I just upgraded from version 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 and I'm throwing in the top of the page the following message:

"Warning: Declaration of vBCms_Widget_cmsfcs::getHash() should be compatible with that of vBCms_Widget::getHash() in ..../packages/vbcms/widget/cmsfcs.php on line 334"

To see the error entering http://www.chileallin.com.

I tried uploading the files again but neither solved.

If anyone has the same error and solved it please help otherwise support someone who can help me, I do not know how to fix it.

Thank you!

[ozzy47]

Try adding this line of code at the top of your config.php under <?:

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ (E_NOTICE | E_WARNING | E_DEPRECATED));

[DemOnstar]

Downloaded, tried but without success...
Great idea though..

The widget I think was visible but the contents not..I had a rather pastel blue coloured box appear at the top of a page. Created a new article but nothing appeared..

Thanks...
My be good if it would display in the forums to?

[willy888]

I had that mod a long time but I can't remove it now
I try to uninstall it but there is no widget to remove first
Install it again , and now there is no Widget Type: CMS featured Content slider to create .
How can I uninstall it ?

[DemOnstar]

Is not a widget that you created yourself?

[willy888]

I can't uninstall it , When I do I have ERROR 500 - INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
The Widget CMS featured Content slider is disappear , probably that's why I cant uninstall the plugin.
I try to install it again from the begining ,but now there is no Widget Type: CMS featured Content slider to create .
How can I uninstall it ?

[DemOnstar]

I have to question your method of uninstall..

Are you saying that from admincp/plugin & products you have uninstalled but admincp/plugin & products/plugin manager it is still there?

[fallen1087]

not working... i try all ideas - nothing helpful...

http://epicmmorpg.com/content/#fragment-3

u can check it live ....try to click and u will see what happens......

[DemOnstar]

I checked your site...

If you are referring to

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=146918&stc=1&d=1382369984

It is ugly...and clicking on things doesn't lead to anywhere..

My personal opinion would be remove it..

I wish I did. I like the idea but if it doesn't work, then get rid...

For the most part, I am just sorry I am unable to create these modifications..

^ I too am getting this error and just upgraded to 4.2.2

[hawaiibillT]

thanks for the slider. its working good for me in 4.2.1 pl1 other than not showing up in one section. looking forward to the next version.

[rmordico]

^ I too am getting this error and just upgraded to 4.2.2

Yes I have the same Error on my CMS startpage.

Warning: Declaration of vBCms_Widget_cmsfcs::getHash() should be compatible with vBCms_Widget::getHash($widgetid = false, $nodeid = false) in ..../packages/vbcms/widget/cmsfcs.php on line 338

[ckgb]

Would be nice to get it compatible with vBadvanced CMPS.

[Manuel94]

You can insert this slider on the page forumhome?

[Elenna]

Has anyone had luck getting this to work with vBulletin 4.2.2? I am getting the same message:
Warning: Declaration of vBCms_Widget_cmsfcs::getHash() should be compatible with vBCms_Widget::getHash($widgetid = false, $nodeid = false) in ..../packages/vbcms/widget/cmsfcs.php on line 338

[Elenna]

Never mind, I found the issue and fixed it!

For those on 4.2.2 that are also getting this error message, here is the fix:

Error:
Warning: Declaration of vBCms_Widget_cmsfcs::getHash() should be compatible with vBCms_Widget::getHash($widgetid = false, $nodeid = false) in ..../packages/vbcms/widget/cmsfcs.php on line 338

Open up that cmsfcs.php file, and scroll to the bottom. A few lines up, you should see
protected function getHash($widgetid)

Change that line to read:
protected function getHash($widgetid = false, $nodeid = false)

Voila! :)

[Scalemotorcars]

Thanks the fix worked for me. :up:

[ETrucKing]

Thanks for the slider.

A few questions, couldn't find any mention of them in the replys

Is it possible set popular to be for the last 30 days?

Not sure why but its showing code (example: "<center></center>") in the description part of the slider, is it possible to hide html code from the description?

Also my articles that are queued to be posted show up in the slider before their scheduled to be published?

Thanks for any help.

[Toorak Times]

Loving this, got it working on my 4.2.2 no problemo

Create a different grid for your sectional pages, and can be varied for different sub sections

Create a Widget for your slider.
Admincp> vbCMS> Widgets> Add New Widget> Create widget for slider.


Create a separate layout for your Home/Front Page Only.

Admincp> vbCMS>Layout Manager> Add New Layout> create new layout for home/frontpage only

Insert the widget in home/front page of your site, adjust the widgets to your preference, save.

Open your homepage, Edit Homepage (Beside title)

(http://www.yourdomain.com/content.php?r=1-/edit )

Change Layout to Your New Layout designed for homepage only. Save.

Make sure that you change any sections that "Inherit" the layout to their own layout.

Another issue...

It's showing my 2 articles but it's not sliding...at all....anyone know how to fix?

Link to your site please.

[LM SpinX]
