Hello!

The changes in the articles that affect to slideshow2 (Demo > Slideshow, articles) doesn’t appear at real time, I don’t know why.

In JA Slideshow2 module settings, when I resize “Main Item height=340 to 200” for example, the text that appears on the left, disappears, showing under the example thumbnail, it shows very ugly.

It’s the same when I change the cache option to off.

To return it to original state i must reinstall the template, again…

Somebody knows to fix it?
Sorry for my english.

Thanks!!

Hello!
Thanks for your answer.
The problem is in the official template without changes. I installed the template via quickstart, all good.
The first appearance is this:

In JA Slideshow2 MODULE SETTINGS i see that the articles needed are here:
Section DEMO – Category SLIDESHOW:

If I change one of these articles then changes dont show in real time, I dont know why.
I change an article, and the appearance of the mainpage is the same than before…

And SAVE but then I refresh de main page and the change doesnt shows!! Why??

I do click in MORE INFO, then I return, I refresh de page several times, but nothing, no result.

I think that it could be tha CACHE OPTION of de Slideshow module, I turn OFF it…

I save, and I obtain this result on main page when I refresh…

Note that now the text reflects the above changes.

I also want to change de height of the slideshow frame and the change causes the same effect…

At this point I cant return the page to the original situation, unless I install quickstart again and overwrite all.

I think no matter what modification is made in the module, I tried to change many things (navigation alignment, sizes, etc) and the result is the same, the text should be left out disappears and is displayed below the image, as in the example image.

I say more, I just noticed that, even without any change, if you simply click SAVE on JA Slideshow2 MODULE SETTINGS, and it causes the bad effect.

All this also affects to template ‘JA Community Plus’, to this same module.

How I can make a change in an item and you feel refreshed in real time on the homepage?
How I can also change the size of the module, without showing the ugly effect of the text?

Thanks for your support!!

OK I had the same issues and have spent tons of time on this template (Days). I ended up finding the update mod_jaslideshow2.v2.2.0 and installed. It seems to be working. Thank you for fixing this!

Dear all!

I found that issue

Now, Please resolve this as following
1) you come to this module’s configuration, and selec the Description only option for the Show Description parameter
2) add the following code into the template.css file:

.ja-slide-item .ja-slide-desc {
visibility:hidden;
}

YOu open the file: /templates/ja_pyro/html/mod_jaslideshow2/default_articles.php and find the following code:
[PHP]
<?php if ($showDescription==’desc-readmore’): ?>
<a <?php echo $target; ?> class=”readon readmore” href=”<?php echo $item->link; ?>”>
<?php echo $readmoretext;?>
</a><?php endif; ?>
[/PHP]

When you selected the Show Description Option so the readmore link is showed

If I change:

<?php if ($showDescription==’desc-readmore’): ?>

in:

<?php if ($showDescription!==’desc-readmore’): ?>

I can see readmore button.

???

The correct value seem to be:

<?php if ($showDescription==’desc’): ?>

How do I thank EVERYONE in this thread, orsomannaro? Heh… Your PHP edit worked for me in both a JA_Pyro Quickstart install and a Template Only + JA Slideshow 2 install test sites.

fwiw: I was trouble shooting my JA_Pyro template & slideshow only install, where the readmore button had failed to appear from the start. However, my Quickstart demo actually had a Readmore button *until* I selected the Show Description Option. At first, NEITHER radio button [for the Show Description form field] was selected by defaut. Once I selected a ‘Show Description’ option it was button gone! GAME OVER. Ha-ha-ha . . . Thanks again for sharing.

Yes, i understand, because the slideshow 2 module is great module and is used on most of the ja templates, so our developers always try to improve, build new features to bring in more features. at times there might be some implicit bugs – which may not be evident immediately. We fix them as and when reported.

The reported issues are being fixed by our developers, before making any customizations to fix the module, please check version of that extensions to make sure that your site is using the latest version.
