Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Hi ikebowen,
any chance of making your lovely plugin read image id’s from the article image box on the write/advanced tab?
That would I think make it even simpler for non tech clients.
Thanks, Lee.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Yep, transph0rmer requested that and it was implemented in v0.02. Use <txp:ike_slideshow_article /> – it reads from Article image and has all of the same behaviors as txp:ike_slideshow does.

Great plug in, not sure why I missed it before.
I know it has been asked, but I will ask again, any chance on it accepting image categories? I know you said this will be in .1, I was just hoping on some time frame ….

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Hey all – thanks for the messages and such. I’m finally back at school and have a few more hours of free time to put back into work on this. Watch for a release in the next week or two.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
hey ikebowen,
thank you very much for your plugin! allthough i’m not a textpattern-expert i got it to work! supergenial!
i just have two questions:
1. in my site the slideshow only works with messy-urls. if i use another url-format (f.e. section/id/titel) the prev/next-links don’t work. I have seen that you use in your site not the messy-url format – and it works ;-) !
do you have any idea what i did wrong?
i use the slideshow-tag in the article-form, not in the article itself. but i tried to use it in the article, but it doesn’t work either.
2. is it possible to bring the prev/next-link above the picture or maybe even right beside of it?
once again: thanks a lot! alfette

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Hello all -
ike_slideshow v0.1 is now available – have at it. Slideshows by category and slideshow loops have been implemented, along with a few other features and a general cleaning-up of the preexisting code. Make sure to update your CSS and Javascript accordingly.
If you see any problems with this release, please let me know asap.
alfette: I’m not sure what the problem would be with smart URLs – I’ve never seen any issues with this. Do you have a link that we could look at? And it could be possible to move the forward/backward links – I’ll add that to the todo list.
Cheers -

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
hey ikebowen,
here i send two links, in which you can see the problem:
no-problem-link: this is the startpage with no article-url.
problem-link with smart-urls. The image is not loading.
the two links show the same article, build be the same page-template.
Thank you for helping me with this.
ciao, alfette
PS: don’t worry about the design, it’s not finished…
PPS: i upgraded to the version 0.1, and i like the loop very much.
PPS: i just switched the prev/next-link to the german words for that. nothing else is changed.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Fortunately, this should be a fairly simple fix. In the <head> section of your HTML where you reference the slideshow javascript, change src="slideshow.js" to src="/slideshow.js". When you have smart URLs enabled, the browser believes it is looking at nested directories and tries to find slideshow.js within them. In this case, it’s trying to find http://foto.chakraverty.de/foto/2/ein-weiterer-test/slideshow.js, which doesn’t exist. Changing the reference to /slideshow.js will ensure that the browser looks for the file in the correct spot.
And don’t worry about the unfinished design – I quite like where you’re going with it. :)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Wonderful plugin. Thanks!
Question – what is the best way to link to the image categories? For example, I would like to show one slideshow in a section called photos, and list the image categories on the side of the page. Click on an image category (for example, the “work” image category), and a slideshow opens up, featuring all the images from the work category.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
For a truly “live” gallery along those lines… hm. The easiest thing to do would be to modify the plugin directly, I think. Insert the following code after line 19 ($slideshow_id...):
if ( !empty( $_REQUEST['c'] ) )
$category = $_REQUEST['c'];
(I’ll add something to this effect in the next release.) With this in place, the plugin will look for whichever category the user has selected. You can display the list of image categories with a tag along these lines:
<txp:category_list label="Photo Categories" this_section="1" type="image" />
Hope this helps -

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Mmmm…not quite working for me yet. I have this in the page:
<txp:ike_slideshow category="Naples,facilities,players" loop="1" show="caption,pagination" />
<txp:category_list label="Categories" type="image" wraptag="p" break="br" />
Which displays all 14 images from the various categories. Underneath, I can see all the category links as expected. Clicking on a category link brings up the same 14 images again.
Note: Have placed the above code in the default page, and have edited the plugin as per your suggestion above.
Thanks for the help!
Edit: Changing the slideshow tag to:
<txp:ike_slideshow loop="1" show="caption,pagination" />
Brings: “No valid image IDs given/found. Categories”, then a list of category links. Clicking on the links does not bring up any images at all.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Odd. It’s possible that it’s because you have categories explicitly set for the plugin, though that shouldn’t be the case. Is there a public url where you have this implemented?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ike_slideshow
Not currently – I am on localhost. I have another version on a live site, but the tags are not in the default page, so the category links don’t show up anyway.
