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();

Also can this be made to work on forumhome in various positions ?

Above forums, Below forums, below footer,etc

cheers in advance

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

[betts02]

so i have to have the image in a forum post first ?

And this will call that image ?

What happens if the thread has various images from other members ?

Just dont get how its doing it, sorry

[betts02]

Can this be set to a stand alone version so you can enter any image you want via the file and the link ?

[Bouncer222]

you attach images as an attachment to the post, it grabs the image from the first post of that person who created the thread, only attach one image.

O Yes Mr Sinister, I don't want the thumbnails images to show, how can I do? I wanna see only the images that slides

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

you can use that file i posted but just rename it to slider.php. upload the file to /clientscript/slider/slider.php like it says to do in the first post. but use the code i have below.

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

if you like to see it in action for yourself cms and vba cmps
