Nivoslider

[Harm10]

Thread for the Nivoslider extension: http://extensions.pivotx.net/entry/51/nivoslider.

The Nivoslider extension makes it possible to insert a Nivoslider (http://nivo.dev7studios.com/) slideshow to your pages. Almost all of Nivosliders options can be used. The slider will automatically find images in a folder that you specify in your templates. You can use the standard styling, or write your own CSS.

*** New version released: 0.12 with a lot of enhancements ***

This is a stripped down version, but very beautiful. I want to text (including HTML) to the images and can link individual images. When does the update do?

I was not planning on a future update, but the modifications you request are not very hard to make. I'm not sure how proficient you are in PHP, but with a little bit of knowledge you'd be able to do it yourself, maybe?

If you're interested in customizing it, but don;t have the knowledge, you can send an e-mail to the author of the extension

Then I will do me well to work and change the extension bit.

A little demo: http://89.247.45.60/. Online until tomorrow morning. HTML is not possible. Image with caption "Genau das wollten wir vermeiden!" is linked.

But that's you!
The original author already incorporated captions................ you didn't add that feature?
Maybe you could review Samson's changes and submit a new version? I think others would like this feature too!

Hi there,

Trying the new nivoslider here: http://www.pimhorvers.nl/page/recent
But something seems to go wrong with the css file. It's still in the original location.
In the page is written:
[[ nivoslider path = "images/recent" cssFile = "pivotx/extensions/nivoslider/nivo-slider.css" orderby = "date_asc" caption = 1 ]]

Anyone can help me out/any advise to give.
Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Pim

The problem is that you have installed pivotx in a subdirectory "page".

Maybe

Code: Select all

[[ nivoslider path = "images/recent" cssFile = "page/pivotx/extensions/nivoslider/nivo-slider.css" orderby = "date_asc" caption = 1 ]]

works?

[Pim Horvers]

This is not the problem because it is able to find the photos but looks like the css file is not loaded.
The rights are correct and location to.
Anybody some ide's to check??

Thanks for your help!

BR, Pim
