Does anybody that has installed this have a chance to look at it? I can't figure out why it's so jumbled on my site.

Ok....does anyone know if there is a way to sort what stories get shown first? I tried installing this mod:

Adv. Editing Options for Mods and Admins

and this mod:

vB_Cement

and even when I try to use them to "bump" a thread up they are shown in the same order as they were originally posted in the news slideshow. Can anyone help or give insight on this?

I am having problems installing this newly bought awesome script. Can anyone help me out installing?

Is doing this part the critical part to get this working, editing:

Hmmm, are you trying to specify the path to your Forums? If so, it shouldn't point to a file and the slideshow script shouldn't be in the clientscript folder. Have a link to your site?

Looks a great but but am having a nightmare trying to install it.

I purchased the extension today, do I have the correct files? I read earlier in this thread about a vB version? Is 'mod_fpslideshow_1.6' correct or do I need to contact Joomla for a vB version?

If i have the correct files could somebody please give me a simple guide? - i have obviously tried but there was images and text everywere.

Any help greatly appreciated.

You need to contact Joomla via e-mail for the vB version. Don't worry, it's free! Once you have the vB version you can follow the instructions and it should install nicely. :)

Thanks for that Wolf. Just sent them an e-mail asking for it.

I take it once I receive them I do not follow the initial instructions?

That's correct, you want to follow the instructions by Concepts given Here. (Scroll down about half way)

i've found a bug...

on the homepage it works...

but if i create a new vbadvanced page (mysite.com/portal.php?pageid=newpage) it's impossible to make it works!

Thanks for the help wolf. I received the vB version and followed Concepts instructions but am having the same problem as a user who posted before;

Any ideas?

Any help greatly appreciated.

same here

anyone have any issues with this hack viewing on IE

I still can't get this to work right...I am getting this now:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Using IE and works perfectly! ;)

I have the same problem and from a few replies it looks common.

Hopefully some kind soul will come and help... :erm:

I think I found a solution.....

Make sure that the .css stylesheet is formatted correctly and in the right directory.

I used the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar to figure out the issues. It seemed the stylesheet was not in the right directory so I moved it and it now works perfectly.

Thanks for trying to help. Really appreciated.

How do I know if the stylesheet is formatted correctly and in the right directory?

Honestly? This is what I did.....and I don't know if this is considered ethical or not but I was desperate....

I borrowed the stylesheet from http://www.unrealaddicts.com/ and then edited the options via the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar to my liking.

does this work from standard vb page (forumhome), w/o having to use vbadvanced?

thanks in advance!

any help?

I've given up. I keep getting the error as I have said numerous times above.

If anyone finds a solution, it would be greatly appreciated if you could please PM me it.

Finally got it working thanks to some members on here. Well, nearly.

It works perfect in Firefox, see here;

Anyone any idea? would be gutted if couldnt use that style slideshow because of such a problem.

Some problem, help me?

Thanks

PM me with your site address. I can check it out for you.

I just got the program yesterday, I love it. I am having a little problem thou. The skin I use is fixed, in 1024x768 the slideshow looks perfect. However in any other resolution there is a very noticable gap. Can anyone give me any suggestions on how to maybe put the slideshow into a module of some sort.

Take a look

You'll need to edit the 'mod_fpslideshow' file accordingly. Where it says Height and Width, just edit the number to the right of it to your liking.

The slideshow file isnt the problem. The image i attached is how it looks in most browsers. In 1024x768 it looks fine. The problem is I cant seem to put the Slide show into a module so it has a black background like everything else.

i followed the instructions you gave, but they didnt work right... so i loaded the file to my root instead of clientscript... and loaded the mod (mod_fpslideshow.php) to my modules folder... it works good.. i just need to get my attachments to to size for the screen size...

I don't really understand what you are saying. The purpose of this hack is to take the slideshow and put it into a module for your CMPS. If you are trying to change the colors of something then just edit your CSS file accordingly.

Yeah, Lionel hasn't updated the instructions, but the correct instructions are posted by Concepts Here. Sorry for any confusion.

Hello,

I'm having alot of trouble changing the news article title from black to white. I noticed "BlueSteel" also had the same problem. (His conversation starts on page 16 of this thread)

I've modified the bottom of mod_fpslideshow.css file and I still cannot change the news article color from black to white. If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You might just be editing to wrong line. Where it says

Change to
Of course change the color to your coice. ;)

UNINSTALLED - the slideshow really messed up some of the other controls on my site and I never could get this into it's own module. For a paid mod, not this one but the slideshow, it's not as intuitive as it should be. I just don't feel you should pay for something with so many little issues.

I'd be glad to help you install it. Just shoot me a PM.

Have you got any idea about how to install this mod on vbportal? I have seen it on one vbportal site.. But i dont no how they maked this worked... :(

I'd assume it would be the same as adding another module to your CMPS. However, I haven't used vbPortal so I'm not familiar with it.
