    I found a thread that says that scrolling buttons in the content slider module are not showing,

    First I updated the module to 1.1.5, nothing happened.

    Then did what this thread says and replaced a CSS file and added an image. Still can’t see the buttons to roll content.

    By the way, if i try to show tabs, i get links to each category selected, I’d want it to be set to all as default, to show all the content from all those categories in a single row.

    Either way, the main category has 5 items, but still the buttons are not shown to view the rest.

    What am I doing wrong? I start everything using the quickstart package.

    Thanks

    Sorry, I put it on the wrong forum while browsing. 🙁

    Hmm… what do you mean by annotation?

    In the test site it’s Other Entries, in this site it’s More Releases and the arrows doesn’t show up in the top right part of the module.

    thanks

    You set Show Button Driven is Show in configuration of contentslide2 module.
    You add this code into /templates/ja_minisite/css/mod_jacontentslider2.css


    .ja-contentslider-right {
    background: url(../images/btn-next-prev.png) -19px 0 no-repeat;
    cursor: pointer;
    height: 29px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: absolute;
    right: -26px;
    top: 120px;
    width: 19px;
    }

    .ja-contentslider-left {
    background: url(../images/btn-next-prev.png) 0 0 no-repeat;
    cursor: pointer;
    height: 29px;
    left: -30px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: absolute;
    top: 120px;
    width: 19px;
    }

    You copy my attached file into /templates/ja_minisite/images

    Hi Guys. I am using Contentslider v1.1.2 in the Ja_Anion template Joomla v 1.72. I am trying to display 3 images across on one line like the template demo. I can see the header and the nav buttons but nothing else. I have worked on this for several hours. I am pretty darn sure I have the configuration right as I have tried every possible combination several times. You can see my site here In reference to the css above I haven’t been able to find Contentslider2

    I am using the category option and I have created 3 articles in that category each with an image.

    Okay…I gave up on trying to make the other guys joomla install work. I got a new domain at hostmonster and started from scratch with J v1.72 and JA Anion. What I spent two whole days on was accomplished in two hours and everything works as it is supposed to.

    Okay…have the content slider working fine using the category option. But…big but…is there any way to use the images instead and use a url link on the images? Seems like it should be an easy thing to do. The problem is if you use the article category option you get redundant images when you click on the slider image. If you use the image category option you get the images but no way to link them to a page. I would like to have the images but not two of them displayed. Am I missing something or should I use a different methodology?

    I don’t understand what you mean clearly. Could you give me a picture with your comments to illustrate your idea?

    Hi Khoand. Thanks for replying to my post so quickly. I have decided the way the content slider works is okay. What I really need from it however…if possible, is a way to put a link to an image that opens up a wrapper page. Take a look at my site. click here. If you click on the top nav bar on “online magazines” you will see a drop down for November and October. One problem I have is that does not work on the main menu. If you click “online magazines” on the left menu you get an error message instead of the links to the wrapper pages. Since I cannot seem to get the menu working properly I am hoping I can find a way to link directly to those pages from images in the content slider. If you click on the November issue image in the content slider it doesn’t go straight to the proper page. It opens up a second page and then when you click on the image it opens up two version of the magazine one above the other. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Now, you use custom module to show 3 images are showed on your frontpage. Do you want to use contentslider instead of custom module?
    If you want to custom module, you replace code from custom module has id is 93


    <a href="http://www.totalhealthmagazine.com/2011November/" target="_wrapper"><img src="/images/covers/1-11-11.jpg" alt="" title="Total Health November 2011"></a>

    Thanks for the quick reply. I am trying to get two things working the same way as the top menu ONLINE MAGAZINES function. You see the drop down and when you click on November or October you see the page open properly in the wrapper(I still have to resize the file to fit but that is okay for now). I would like to be able to link the same way on the left menu item but it refuses to show November and October. Just goes to a page with the message of no articles in this category. I replaced the content slider with the custom module so I could at least link to the magazines in a new window. I would much, much prefer to open those in a wrapper and keep the visitors on the website.

    Okay…I got the custom module to link the images properly to the wrapper pages. I used the internal URL “http://total-health-magazine.com/index.php/online-magazines/total-health-magazine-november-issue”

    Now all I have to do is to figure out how to get the left menu item “Online Magazines” to work
