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();

I'm guessing to change the height/width of the slider display is also located in the CSS.

But what is the default size that the images should be for the slider?

I read 400px... I'm guess that's 400px for width. But what about in Height?


Thanks Alot!

i have change few things as you can see here

I am guessing that you have forum root in a folder called maybe its forums or another name. if so replace it with this code below. just change the word community to your forum root folder name. hope this helps.

// vBulletin: Parse BBCode
if (!is_object($bbcode_parser)){
	require_once('../community/includes/class_bbcode.php');
	$bbcode_parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());
}

You are correct that it is in a forums directory, but the change you suggested did not fix the issue. I did try this earlier thinking it might be the issue, but it did not fix it. I also tried the full path to the file, but that also did not work.

I'm using version 4.0.4 of vb forums; and 4.1.0 of vBadvanced CMPS. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

I think the problem lies with in this code. I can't figure it out yet. I am not a great coder.

$pic['pagetext'] = $bbcode_parser->do_parse($pic['pagetext'],false,false,false,false,false,false);

Thanks but will it work for cms? I don't have vbadvance? And my forum is the root of my site.

[DS MrSinister]

This one should work for CMS.

[gamerzhope]

Hey thanks its works really well for my site. www.callmegamer.com

The images adjust themselves! Why don't you update this in the first thread? I uploaded, my forum is on the root of my site, or you can take out Community and the extra "." period that's what I had to do to get it working.


Thanks Again!!!

[DS MrSinister]

Its not my mod. can't edit the first post. also don't forget to download the image i posted like 3 or 4 post back.. If you edit 700px and few others CSS code you can resize the boxes.

Your Welcome.

PS

this for the sections that you having the info your using for the slider. aka forum IDs

Under Forums & Moderators --> Forum Permissions --> Unregistered / Not Logged In change to yes -->Can Download Attachments and Can See Thumbnails so people that not register with you forum can see the images.
