Hi!
I have Telline ll and I know that Highslide is already embedded into the template. I would also like to use Highslide for other elements in my site such as my .FLV Videos to Pop-out and play inside some of my articles. I did actually purchase a License from them awhile ago to use it on commercial site. My question is, will it mess up anything on Teline ll if I install the Highslide Plug-in and use on different elements of my site, or is it actually already installed with Quickstart and I do not need to install it seperatly? I did try looking for Highslide in the Plug-In manager but don’t see it anywhere so I assume it’s just embeded and I will need to install the extension.

Thanks for any help!

You are correct…no sense in loading Highslide…when it’s already there.

If you still have the TelineII original modules available to you…take a look at the module labeled PICTURES. And then look at the HTML code under CUSTOM OUTPUT. You should see quickly the conventions for setting up pictures to fly out.

Here’s one:


<a id="thumb1" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this, {outlineType : 'drop-shadow', width:400, height:260, captionText:'Sample image'})" href="images/stories/demo/gallery/gl-1.jpg"> </a>


For video you need only reconfigure the above line of code with the HighSlide calls for video:
And here’s an example of that which pulls out a YouTube video.


<a id="thumb1" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this, { objectType: 'swf', width: 425, objectWidth: 425, objectHeight: 380, align: 'center' } )" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/yVziyboHjqQ"><img title="Click to enlarge" src="images/stories/demo/gallery/gl-1.jpg" alt="Highslide JS" width="85" height="55" /></a>


The above video code, you’ll notice, uses the same thumbnail image as in the picture example from above. But it should give you an idea of where to place your thumbs.

Have fun!
John.

Hi John,
Thank you so much for the helpful information! One thing I’m still not sure of is that in the JA Extensions Downloard Area there is a Custom Mod / Plug-in available to download. After reading the information it looks like a nice Plug-in to use. I looked in my Plug-ins area and Module list for my Telline ll and do not see anything for JA Highslide so being that it is embedded we you the code method for other element within the page. Could I perhaps download and use the Plug-in as it looks like it would be easier and more customizable?

If I download the JA Highslide Plug-in to use for Telline ll template, would that interfere with the Highslide code that is already embedded into the templete?

I hope this makes sense! :confused:

Your question makes sense…but my answer is not so positive – I have no idea! 😀
I had never thought about that.

On the bright side…the worst that could happen if it does conflict is that you’ll just have to uninstall the plugin. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Please note the results of your experiment here so we can all benefit from it.

Thanks!
John.

Hi John,
Thanks for your quick reply! I think I’ll be daring and give it a try! Although hopefully JA can shed some light on this to see if it would change anything “under the hood”. Your reply hasn’t gone totally unusable though as I did mess up one of my Youtube Videos “Code” and was having a hard time sorting out the code line from looking at the HTML with the editor. With your information I should be able to “fix” it now! I’m sure others visiting the forum will also find this information handy.

I’ll keep you posted as to my results…thanks again!

JA Moderators??? Can I install JA Highslide Plug-in/Mod when Highslide is already embedded into Telinell? Will the two Java Scripts conflict with each other or make it bloated? I do not want to purchase the extension until I find out it’s ok. I like the ease of the JA Highslide Plug-in as it makes appears much easier to work with for us non-programmers.

JA??

SBaldwin, did you fix this issue.
Also it seems like highslide can be seen at positions (user 5, 6, 7, 8) how do I put the gallery in the middle of my page

Hello,

Have the same questions regarding the embedded Highslide feature in Teline II as the other posters.

What are the steps to using Highslide within a Teline II article?

Have only been able to post Highslide in user positions, but cannot make Highslide work for an article.

Should the JA-Highslide plug-in also be installed for Teline II?

Or does adding the JA-Highslide plug-in cause problems with the embedded Highslide code in Teline II?

Thank you.
