vBulletin CMS Widgets - [WIDGET] Slider

Widget Slider - Frontpage Slide Show.

Demo: http://demo.webdeveloperplus.com/fea...ontent-slider/

This is based on the demo above. OK this is my first mod and I know the coding really sucks! But I thought I would get this out and see if anyone want to improve on it.
This is one of those frontpage slide shows that pulls your attachment and data from specified forums.

I hope this works for you.

Install:

Edit slider.php and at line 100:

$forumid - set the forum to pull slides
$limit - set the number of posts
$chars - set the total number of characters
$words - set total number of words

Upload Files.

Create PHP Widget and inser the following code:

ob_start();
echo '<div>';
echo '<center>';
require_once './clientscript/slider/slider.php';
echo '</center>';
echo '</div>';
$output=ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

Created a PHP widget

ob_start();
echo '&lt;div&gt;';
echo '&lt;center&gt;';
require_once './clientscript/slider/slider.php';
echo '&lt;/center&gt;';
echo '&lt;/div&gt;';
$output=ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

and i've modified the code in slider.php with

$forumid = array(23); // Set forum IDs here.
$limit = '4'; // Limit the displayed slides
$chars = 120; // Character limit for the slide text, e.g. 100 is 100 characters limit.
$words = 20; // Word limit for the slide text, e.g. 20 is 20 words limit
/* ------------------------------ NOTHING TO CHANGE BELOW THIS LINE ------------------------------ */

[DS MrSinister]

if anyone is looking to make this work with vBadvanced CMPS. just download this attachment.
Don't forget to edit lines 20 to 23 to fit your needs.

add a new php module --> name what ever you want too --> File to Include slidermodule.php

---> Use Module Wrapper Template up to you. enjoy

Its set for forumid2. you need to edit the slidermodule.php line 20 to set it for you forumids.

I am sure you can place it other places but i don't know how on doing that sir. sorry
