1. Forced to use 1.5+ because of a large auction mod that is not available in 1.6 or 1.7 let alone 2.5
2. Have installed a mod called, “mod_imagescroll” in left position on most pages. Works fine. It’s a week now and mod developer has not responded to my query. >:(
3. When mouse hovers over image in the mod, it highlights an ugly yellow and shows long path for image. Below the ugly yellow, the text I was able to customize in one of the xml’s does show up.

The question is: HOW DO I GET RID OF THE TOOLTIP SHOWING THE IMAGE PATH? I want to show the Title of the particular image not the path.

Without the answer, I will have to disable this mod and go find another which means much wasted time.

I will gladly PM anyone the URL of this in-progress site.

All Blessings–

I am unsure what you are calling a “tooltip”. is it the additional installed mod or one that came with the template.
I can not find one that came with the template download.
can you give me a screen shot please and circle the image for the tooltip and I will try to help you more.
Thanks!
See if this User Guide for tooltip helps.

So you want the title to show? Or not?

Instead of the image path, I need to say”Luxury Home located in Florida” for example. Each image should have a different TITLE. Below it, It has Blackstone iso which I’d like to keep. What controls this? So, yes, keep Titles but not image path.

This will have to be hacked.
I have never used the tooltip from JA but I think if you go into the files and look for the code:

content_source_desc
you may find the answer there.
Let me know what you find please.
Thanks!

I checked every php, XML and .js in the Image Scroller mod files but no “content_source_desc”

I do however, suspect that it’s being controlled from the default.php but I’m not a Code Warrior and don’t know how to change it from showing the actual image path to showing normal Title text. Do you think it’s this string that controls it?

$href = $url;
if ($readmore_link){
$image = JHTML::_( ‘image’, JURI::base() . ‘cache/mod_imagescroll/’ . $cachefilename, $url_array[‘title’], $img_tag_attribs );
$href = $readmore_link;
$title = $articles[$id]->title;

$intro = modImageScrollHelper::prepareContent( $articles[$id]->introtext, $introChars ) . ‘…’ ;
$link_tag_attribs[‘title’] = “$title::$intro”;
$link_tag_attribs[‘class’] = ‘ISTips’;

$images .= JHTML::_( ‘link’, $href, $image, $link_tag_attribs );
} else {
$img_tag_attribs[‘title’] = $url_array[‘title’];
$image = JHTML::_( ‘image’, JURI::base() . ‘cache/mod_imagescroll/’ . $cachefilename, $url_array[‘title’], $img_tag_attribs );
$images .= $image;
}

____________________________

THE AREA WHERE I WAS ABLE TO ACTUALLY CHANGE ONE OF THE TOOL TIP TEXT LINES (or is it an elaborate Alt tag?) WAS IN THE mod_imagesscroll.xml:. Do you see a way in here perhaps that i could get rid of the image path line?

<param name=”URL” type=”textarea” default=”#|SOLD by Blackstone Auction Group” rows=”10″ cols=”50″ label=”URL” description=”DESC URL” />
<param name=”limit” type=”text” default = “5” label=”Limit” description = “DESC limit.”/>
<param name=”random” type=”radio” default=”0″ label=”Random” description=”DESC Random” >
<option value=”0″>No</option>
<option value=”1″>Yes</option>
</param>

AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR TRYING TO HELP. IT’S AMAZING TO ME THAT ANYONE WHO OFFERS AN EXTENSION FROM EXTENSIONSJOOMLA.ORG WOULD RISK TOTALLY IGNORING USERS. THERE IS NO SUPPORT AND YET IT IS AN ATTRACTIVE, FUNCTIONAL LEFT POSITION IMAGE MOD.

Have not been sure if you are referring to the above code or the below code on your comment of removing image reference. I will check back to see how you come on this as it is more of a customization request.
Thanks!
