Add-On Releases - [Web and Art Solutions] Nivo slider for vBulletin 5

We are very proud to bring to the community the integration of the popular Nivo Slider for the vBulletin 5 Connect platform, along with all its slide effects.

At last, for the first time ever, a flexible slider solution for all vBulletin 5 forum owners.

Demo: http://www.communityskins.com

It works for both 5.0.x and 5.1 installations.

Changelog:
v1.00 - Released
v1.10 - Fixed: Error loading post

Enjoy!

I installed this mod then installed DBShout from DBtech. Despite having both modules in different locations it seemed like one overwrote the other. The slider disappeared and only the shoutbox remained. Once I removed the shoutbox, I couldn't get the slider back, even after a fresh install.

Do you think there was some conflicting code?

Hello,

Probably, there code is conflicting with each other. I suppose that the shoutbox template isn't deleted from the database.

Could you please tell me your vBulletin version and send me the DB Shout link where you downloaded it, so that I take a look at it?

Thank you very much for your feedback.

As a suggestion, generally its not recommended to end your php files with ?> since PHP doesn't actually require the file to have an end ?> blank lines after it will cause issues.

I just ran into this with a someone using your addon. They had multiple blank lines on core/packages/vb5nvio/api/page.php after the ?> and it was breaking the save function of the site builder.

When you would post something, you'd get a popup that said "Error Loading Post", yet when you refreshed the screen the post was there. After the full uninstall it stopped. Any idea what would cause that? It's a great product. I'm using 5.1.2.

This appear to be the cause. hope the developer can look into it.

Error loading post: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data.

the problem is in this file /js/ckeditor_rollup_512.js


uninstalling does not stop the error loading post. Damn!!

About the login area, try to remove the code below from the js/vb5nivo/vb5nivo.js file.

$('#lnkLoginSignupMenu').click(function(){
	$("#idLoginIframeContainer" ).dialog({
		modal: true,
		resizable: false });
});

Please let me know if the login was fixed.

Thank you.

This fixed the issue at first, but now the issue is back. I have since gone back into the vb5nivo.js file and it is how it should be. The site is www.hugaming.com

Awesome slider, however how do I change the duration of each slide ? I have text on the slides and it moves on to the next slide too quickly.

P.S where do I change the speed on the jquery.nivo.slider.js

Cheers
