The content link is for if you want to link to an external page to further discuss the item you have in the content. As an example, lets say you were have an event, and you had an event page set up somewhere on your site. From the slider, you would want to link to that event page, and you would do it via that link.

The content image url is just the url to the image you want displayed for that custom content. Along the same lines as the event above, if you had a banner for the event, put the url to the banner image in that box and the banner would be displayed inside the slider.

Does that answer your questions?

Can you expand further on how it messed up your forum so we can look to improve the product? Its hard to make a product better with feedback like above but no explanation on the issues which caused the comment.

Content Link
This is the URL to the blog, article etc...


Content Image URL
This is the URL to the image/picture or attachment of choice.

To everyone else if you do not have the CMS disabled.
Go ahead and install.
Great Mod this is the Ultimate Slider. :)

Great stuff man! The only slider mod I've been happy with. Nominated for MOTM!

Working great in 4.1.10 !!!!!

Thanks for this great mod....

Nominated for MOTM !!! that's good news....

Regards

Tried it on our 4.1.10 test forum. After enabling it on forumhome, the forum home simply didn't load, and would stall at loading forever. Turning it off brings things back to normal. Will keep an eye on this, but for some reason it's just not co-operating with our setup right now.

I've set it to pull 5 Contents I've set up but it will only pull into the slider 2 of them.

Also it could really do with some sort of picture re size built into it, the pictures it pulls come through way to big
This is the same when you pull them to the slider via a Thread or Article

Have you tried re-uploading the files and/or reimporting the product? I've seen this happen once or twice during testing and development, but could never figure out why. It was always fixed by re-uploading the files and reimporting the product.

It shouldn't causing that extreme of issues, but do you have any other jQuery mods installed? In the cases that I have seen with conflicts with other jQuery mods, the slider will still load, but nothing will show up.

If you can narrow it down in anyway, I will work to try to figure out the issue.

Are you sure you have the content types active, as well as set to display in the appropriate location? Each custom content type (that's what I'm assuming you are talking about) can be independently disabled, as well as independently be shown on either forumhome, the cms, or both. I'd check those, and if you still have issues, let me know.

As far as the image resizing goes, that is on the list of things to fix for a future version. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to go about it, considering the size of the slider can be so different between different sites.

Yes, it was just delayed in showing after I made them, all showing now thanks

Although as it's pulling the images from an outside url the quality of the pictures are really low.
Not sure why.
