I use JA minisite and JA Slideshow. On Joomla 1.7 everuthing worked fine, but after upgrading to Joomla 2.5.3 JA Slideshow doesn’t show the images from my folder. My source is “from images” and the settings are exactly the same as before. When I look in Firefox with firebug the source shows “/” on the imagepath. The description is all right though.

Here is an example; http://www.korfbal.net/index.php/over-dso/vacatures

Anyone??

Hi

It’s impossible to check the reason from here only with Firebug, we need a super user account for the joomla back end to better check the module configuration and the correct path of your images folder.

You can send a PM to me with your account or edit this thread and insert your credentials

Strange. I looked for the result on my iPad and it looked almost exactly what I wanted. But now, I only see 1 picture and nothing else on my Mac in different browsers and also on my iPad. Did you change anything later? What have you modified?

I can see it correctly on my FF — Chrome — and IE9 all images are showed, probably you need to clear your browser cache

<blockquote>What have you modified? </blockquote>

In the module settings — advanced options –Thumbnail Mode i have changed from Using Crop to Using Image source

because your images are already in the format nedeed for the slideshow so it’s not necessary to crop them

This makes me crazy! I’ve removed all the cache files on my 3 (!) browsers and on my iPad, but it’s still showing only the images. I’ve looked through the settings and I’ve noticed that you had changed the skin in “default” (it was Rasite). All the other settings (stage settings) were empty! I’ve changed them back to what I think is ok, but I don’t see any description now on the right side. Grrrrrr. Any suggestions?

I have changed only the advanced options from using crop to using images sources and nothing else.

Anyway you can find the module settings for Ja_Rasite here

Very strange, because all my settings where gone! Anyway, I’ve reinstalled the Slideshow module and changed the advanced option to using image source and now everything is back to normal. Thanks for your help.

hello,

I tried reading as much as I could before posting – but could you look at my site – I can’t get the top slide show images to show up and I don’t know where to go to get images at the top of the articles to show up. I send you my login info via PM. The images are ss1-ss4 I uploaded via media manager into slideshow folder.
Thanks
wendye

YOU ARE AWESOME!!! The slide show is working!!! Thanks so much.

Question – is it possible to lower the title bar that goes across the slide show that you fixed for me? If it’s not possible I may need to change my pictures so that more of the picture is visible, but was just checking to see if its possible to lower before making changes. Can you tell me how you were able to get the pictures to show up, just want to know for the future so I don’t have to bother anyone when I want to add more pictures.

Last thing, can you tell me how to add pictures to the topf of my articles….I have looked everywhere to see how to do this and can’t find it.

I know that I have asked many questions and I thank you, sincerely, for your help and patience.:)

Wendye

me: how to add pictures to the topf of my articles

you: What you mean exactly ?

The pictures associated with the “most watnted” “must read” “Think different” etc modules that appear at the bottom of the template are associated with com_content. logged into FTP to find out how to add the pictures that I want to appear in these modules. I found com_content but still not exactly sure where to put the pictures so that they show up in the slideshow associated with the modules that I menioned. I also tried just changing the source of the most wanted module to an image path…but it still didn’t show up.

I have attached a picture of the top 3 modules in the middle mass onctent position – I cant figure out how to get my images into the correct position. Having same problem with modules that say “most watnted” “must read” “Think different”

Hi
<blockquote>is it possible to lower the title bar that goes across the slide show </blockquote>

to make the bar lower make these changes

in this file /modules/mod_jaslideshow/assets/themes/ja_orisite/style.css around line 37

.maskDesc {
background: url("thumb-mask.png") repeat-x scroll left top transparent;
bottom: 0 !important; <--------set the value of bottom in this way
left: 20px;
z-index: 100;
}

same file but at line 121

#ja-slideshow .ja-slide-buttons {
bottom: 20px; <-----chenge the value as showed here
left: 20px;
margin: 0 20px;
width: 940px;
}

regarding the other question <blockquote>how to add pictures to the topf of my articles </blockquote>

the three modules are ja_content_slider modules that takes sources from articles

example : your Most Wanted module takes source from the Orisite demo content category now if you open an article in that category you will see on the right in the options the Images and links features there you can change the settings for the image of the article

I hope was clear
