Can the front page slideshow (JA RSGallery2 Slider) be wider than 545px? I have set the width of photo to display as 800 but the front page slideshow seems that it can be no larger than 545 even if i eliminate all other modules from the front page? Is that something that would need to be changed in the coding of the module?

I would say that you should be able to change the width by modifying the css for that module, which is probably in template_css.css.
Good luck.

Hi danielh.
If you want front page slideshow wider than 545, as 800 , you must change code in mod_ja_rsslide.php (modules/mod_ja_rsslide.php in joomla 1.0, and modules/mod_ja_rsslide/mod_ja_rsslide.php in joomla 1.5). Plz search this line
echo '<div style="position:relative; width:100%; overflow:hidden;" class="ja-rsslide_img_full">';
and change to
echo '<div style="position:relative; width:800px; overflow:hidden;" class="ja-rsslide_img_full">';

So what you are saying is, changing the width and height of image paremters in the mod_ja_rsslide module screen does not register the change when you save? You have to manually change the CSS?

If change CSS, I think I must change so much.

I know english is not your primary language, so if you dont mind me asking, can you elaborate on your statement? I don’t understand what you are trying to say?

OK, I have determined that the above code is for the actual slider application, but that the width and dimensions setting in the control panel for the slider are for the images themselves. It seems to make sense now to me, I dont know why it didnt before.

I’m still looking for a right combination of width and height setting to make the pictures look better in quality when they are in the slider front page. Yet still fill the slider box application.
