Slideshow Opacity and Speed

patvandenbosche

On the homepage is the slideshow. I'm having trouble with the text showing up, and I know at one time I asked about the opacity and speed of the slideshow. Now you have to forgive me, it may have been on another site, I can't remember now.

Can you please provide the css setting for this slideshow that would control the opacity of the overlay and the speed of the slides?

Thank you,
Pat

Hi
For opacity your site already does not using the opacity code kindly check the slideshow option
And set it as its in the documentation it will appear normal.

For speed kindly apply suggestion from here https://www.joomlart.com/forums/d/6077-slow-down-slideshow

I do not understand your statement. I'm confused by your English. Please rephrase it. I have fixed the issue for the speed of the slideshow, as shown in the link you sent me, and created a custom file for style-1.php in the local subdirectory, but I just copied the script from that file that affected the speed. But I don't understand your remark about the overlay.

As an aside, you just closed another ticket with the remark, if you are pleased with the support, please rate us. Where? Do you mean in joomla extensions? I'm happy to do so. As a matter of fact, I was on the phone with another extension developer, and we both agreed the support at Joomlart is outstanding, and I don't mind telling anyone to use Joomart.

This comment has nothing to do with the ticket I'm writing this in. Thanks.

About the overlay color as it in the demo site it work when the slideshow module is setup as give in the template documentation. kindly fix the admin login so i can check it.

I spoke too soon about the speed issue. I used the fix you gave in the link you sent me, but it didn't work. In fact, the entire slideshow disappeared. I've asked my host to restore the site to yesterday so I can get the site working again. Hold off 24 hours on fixing this so I can be sure I've got it all back to where it should have been before I broke the site.

Thanks,
Pat

The restore has been performed and the slideshow restored as well. Please look at both issues for me on the slideshow, the speed and the opacity.

Thanks,
Pat

Hi
still the login is invalid for Joomla but i managed to get it work by FTP
Add this code in custom.css file line for overlay as in demo

.slideshow .swiper-container-fade .swiper-slide-active .item .img-bg:before {
    background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
    background-image: url(/templates/ja_company/acm/slideshow/images/bg-mask.png);
    background-position: left bottom;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    content: "";
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    height: 100%;
    width: 100%;
}

also in slideshow file you can see the auto play value is 5000 now
If you want to delay more you can increase its value to example 8000

I have modified the login with credentials which I have tested and know it will work for you. I added the code above you gave in the custom.css file and it doesn't seem to do anything. Please use the new login I just added and look at it. It is the T3 platform and totally different than all my other sites since it's over 3 yrs old now. Hard to believe that 3 yrs would make such a difference.

Thanks in advance and apologies about the previous logins not working.

Hi
You should apply the same steps as asked.
I added the code in first line of custom css and it work fine.

Ok, I see it now... again, I forgot about the cache. But how do I control the opacity?

Hi
You can manage this code value

  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);

Its rgba color in /local/css/custom.css file
