Nivo slider is really easy to implement.

I have it ready on my testsite, but we are not ready to release our fully reworked cms part as of yet.


Since a lot of you guys want it i'll upload the code later today.


there you go:

Thanks. Thats almost what we need. If you add a function to pull content and images from a forum, then this provides all that has been requested.

Would need a additional database_query and i would have to look up a code which searchs for the first image in a thread (probably going through the vb4 files to see how it is done there) - and then some additional debug in order to not catch smileys.
Which to be honest i won't look into simply because it has no practical relevance for our forum. Which means there will arise a lot of problems i can't see or fix without extensive debugging. Article is different since we will use the slider there ourselfs.

Besides that (as an admin) i have some problems to imagine how that would run in practice, when i pull 50 threads out of our board - i end up with 48 threads without image which probably all have a similar combination of age/comments as my articles. Meaning i have no controll over what is going to show up in the slider.

That aside, if someone comes up with a database query which fetches: thread title, thread id, post count, thread date, message - and a way to find the thread image - i can easily point him in a direction where to put that code in my nivo slider widget for it to show up.

As a workaround you could promote everything out of one forum into a hidden cms-subsection. And then change the link in the slider to point at your threads (instead of articles).

I've been burned by vB cover. Nearly $200 wasted. Do not trust them.

Bad modules? Expensive services? Not good assistance? Please clarify cause i need some modules from there...

Thank you :)

hummm user thunderclap with your email address did not make a single purchase ...

It was puchased under a different name.

Very easily said ... why don't you provide some proof? Sounds to me that you have your own agenda. In the past, contributors here used to be honest.

There was a bug in your iReview software I pointed out to you that involved sorting. It didn't work properly, and even with proof you insisted it was user error. How I can screw up sorting is beyond me. In any event, you discontinued communication and ignored me. You even told me not to contact you again.
