Little slideshow

09 Jun 2008, 04:00

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to integrate in my website a little slideshow with random chosen thumbnails pictures of 100px * 75px ?
Ideally, I would like three options :
1) that random images are chosen randomly in all public galleries.
2) that random images are chosen randomly from latest 30 images added in public galleries
3) or I would like to be able to specify a gallery which contains the pictures of the slideshow.

Is this possible with imagevue ?

Moreover, it would be fantastic that a click on a picture from this little slideshow redirects the user to the gallery which contains the picture, and displays the picture wide.

Could you tell me if something is impossible with imagevue or if all that I wrote would be possible ?

Thank you very very much for your help !

Sincerely,

MacDo

Did I ask some stupid question or should I have found the answer somewhere on this website ?? Or did I post my questions in a wrong place ?

Thank you very much for your help...

Hmmm... Is this really the official support forum where users can ask questions and get some help, or is there a best place to get some help ? Because It could get really annoying to wait more than one week before having an answer to a simple question as "is it possible to...", isn't it ?

If my original question is not clear enough, please excuse me, I don't speak english fluently, but please tell me...

Thank you very much once again...

Yes it it possible to have a small slideshow, like on my site: http://www.globetrotternet.nl/
It is not possible to show pictures randomly from all your pictures in your gallery. But it is possible to make a seperate directory for this small slideshow. Those pictures can be played randomly

My component.ini file:
Code
[SLIDESHOW]

[MAIN]

globalpath = false
path = component/	;directory setting
directimage = false
startimageclick = next
language = slideshowlang.ini

frametransition = true

sfx = false

audiopath = mp3/
audiorepeat = 0

startvolume = 80
audiostyle = linear

audioinfo = id3
audioplayercolor = textcol

[CONTROLS]

sitemenu = false
showmaincontrols = false
maincontrols = select,previous,next
maincontrolsalign = BR

displaydescription = true
hideextension = false
formatmaxwidth = 250
formatminwidth = 150
formatmargin = 3
formatbackgroundcolor = 004ab8	;color of description bar
formatbackgroundalpha = 60	;transparancy of this bar
defaultfont = Arial
defaultsize = 19
defaultcolor = textcol
defaultleading = 2
defaultalign = left
headingfont = DesertDogHmk
headingsize = 28
headingcolor = bgcol

[END]
Example of my .htm file:
Code
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://fotos.globetrotternet.nl/javascript/swfobject_source.js"></script>
</head>

<body>
<div id="flashcontent"style="margin: 1px 1px 1px 1px;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("http://fotos.globetrotternet.nl/slideshow.swf", "features", "160", "120", "7", "#FFFFFF");
so.addVariable('configfile','component/compslideshow.ini');
so.addVariable('globalpath','http://fotos.globetrotternet.nl/');
so.addVariable('framewidth', '1');
so.addVariable('frameshadow', 'false');
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
</body>
</html>
You can make some settings in this .htm file:
- var so = new SWFObject("http://fotos.globetrotternet.nl/slideshow.swf", "features", "160", "120", "7", "#FFFFFF"); location of slideshow.swf on your site, 160 and 120 is size of slideshow, #FFFFFF is backgroundcolor.
- component/compslideshow.ini ; directory of .ini file.
- 'globalpath','http://fotos.globetrotternet.nl/' ; location of normal Imagevue files.

You can upload pictures with FTP or via admin menu, like: http://fotos.globetrotternet.nl/admin/?folder=component (change to own website)
In admin you can also change descriptions.

Thank you for your answer, globetrotter.
I'm a bit disappointed because this was for me an important feature.
May I suggest to add these features in the wish list ? :)

Thanks for your help !
