[slideshow2] Slideshow2
Thumbnail picture

A javascript gallery based on Mootools to presentate images

Quote from authors website:Slideshow is a javascript class for Mootools 1.2 to stream and animate the presentation of images on your website. Slideshow is the result of many trials in code attempting to create a javascript class that was lightweight, unobtrusive, a snap to setup (but also highly configurable), extendable and - built using the javascript framework with the best effects - visually very impressive. Slideshow began as a side project by Aeron Glemann, and is now open source with an MIT-style license.

Features

  • A detailed overview of functions and demo can be found here:
    http://www.electricprism.com/aeron/slideshow/
  • If javascript is deactived an image is being showed but no thumbnails
  • CSS and Javascripts can be customized via TYPOlight Templates for each Slideshow

How to use the Slideshow

  • Create a new slideshow via Content > Slideshow2
  • At first you have to setup the basics for the slideshow which are: size, effects and buttons
  • Then you continue to add the images. You can select one file or folder per element.
  • When you finished that you can integrate the slideshow either as module or directly as content element.
  • The CHMOD of FolderTL_ROOT/plugins/slideshow2 has to be set to 0755 on some servers if the slideshow is not working correctly.

Release notes and change log for 0.9.0 rc3Other versions

0.9.0 rc3

  • Changed the output from HTML to JS. This means that the fallback is reduced and thumbnails do not appear anymore when JS is deactivated. By choosing this method the visible peloading of images should be gone. Only the first image should appear before.
  • Output of CSS and JS inside HTML head is optimized and compressed.
  • When using multiple Slideshows on one page CSS and JS is not outputed combined anymore due to problems with other extensions.
  • Selections of URL title and target is not supported anymore due to the JS method.

0.9.0 rc2

  • If you are updating from the previous version using the repository please do the following:
    1. Delete the damaged Slideshow2 extension but only the files not he database fields.
    2. Install the new Slideshow2 and your data should still be present.
  • Tried different Lightboxes to work with TYPOlight and the Slideshow2 but none worked together. So if you want to use Slideshow2 with the Lightbox and a TYPOlight Element with a Lightbox the TYPOlight Element wont show correctly. No Solution in sight yet.
  • Fixed some problems with thumbnails and wrong integration of JS and CSS
  • Better descriptions in the backend explaning how to configure the slideshow2
  • Online translation tool should be showing all fields now

0.9.0 rc1

  • Lightbox only works with modified Version from Slideshow and TYPOlight Lightbox is not working correctly when both are on the same page. If you kow a solution please tell me.
  • Please check the application for errors and supply me with feedback, thanks!
