I made a new installation of ja zinc (quickinstallation). If I activate the ja_slideshow module I get a blank screen in the frontend.

Can anybody help me?

I’m relieved for your sake, it could be a nightmare. Thank you for reporting back!:D

Have discovered that it is not in fact the PHP version that matters, but whether or not the gd module is installed. This module is required by the slideshow to manipulate the image files.

To find out if you have the gd module installed, create a text file containing the following line of code:

<? phpinfo(); ?>

and save it on your server root as phpinfo.php. Call the file through your browser (<a href="http://yoursite.com”>http://yoursite.com/phpinfo.php and check the output for a section labeled gd. It should look something like this:

gd

GD Support enabled
GD Version 2.0 or higher
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with freetype
FreeType Version 2.3.7
T1Lib Support enabled
GIF Read Support enabled
GIF Create Support enabled
JPG Support enabled
PNG Support enabled
WBMP Support enabled

If you do not have a gd section, then you will need to ask your host to install it, or switch to another host that already has it installed, since unless you have superuser access to your webserver, you cannot install this yourself.

Hope this helps someone
