@zorroh,

By default the image is added into article content like this:

If you insert images into article via Images and Links option instead of article content, this JA Slideshow module should retrieve and display that intro image in frontend.

Please try to update this module to the latest version and remember to clean all caches after making changes.

Is there a way to use the “intro Image” to the slideshow and when you click read-more display the “Full article” image? Actually the module takes the second one when I set both.

You can try opening file: modulesmod_jaslideshowhelpershelper.php and look for this snippet of code:
[PHP]
if ((isset($images->image_fulltext) and !empty($images->image_fulltext)) || (isset($images->image_intro) and !empty($images->image_intro))) {
$row->mainImage = (isset($images->image_fulltext) and !empty($images->image_fulltext)) ? $images->image_fulltext : ((isset($images->image_intro) and !empty($images->image_intro)) ? $images->image_intro : “”);
$row->thumbnail = (isset($images->image_intro) and !empty($images->image_intro)) ? $images->image_intro : ((isset($images->image_fulltext) and !empty($images->image_fulltext)) ? $images->image_fulltext : “”);
}
[/PHP]

change it to:
[PHP]
if ((isset($images->image_fulltext) and !empty($images->image_fulltext)) || (isset($images->image_intro) and !empty($images->image_intro))) {
$row->mainImage = ((isset($images->image_intro) and !empty($images->image_intro)) ? $images->image_intro : “”);
$row->thumbnail = (isset($images->image_intro) and !empty($images->image_intro)) ? $images->image_intro : ((isset($images->image_fulltext) and !empty($images->image_fulltext)) ? $images->image_fulltext : “”);
}
[/PHP]
