Easy Image Rotator

This module allows you to specify individual or random image folders for each menu item and show different images appearing in a module position which changes depending on which area of the site the user is in.

There are two parts (component and module) that have to be installed.

The component part allows you to define the image directorys, image title and layer text according to your given menu tree.

The module part allows you to display a specific or random images on one or multiple positions at the pages, the displaying depends on the active menu item.
With the module parameters you can set the following options:

  • use a random image folder
  • width and height of the display area
  • how you would like to fit the images into the display area
  • show images within javascript slider
  • the number of images to rotate through
  • display or hidde text layer of the javascript slider

    Hi,
    I am running 2.5, and I am experimenting with your module/component. I put it in position 5 of Beez20, and tried to let it work.

    But, no pictures appear, and the mod name stays! Even when I explicitly state it must be hidden.

    * How can I make it work and remove the title if the hide function is not working?
    * When I use ftp I see my images at:
    /domains/diaconienu.nl/public_html/images/activiteiten

    Help is really appreciated!

    Kind regards and merry christmas!

    Patrick

    Please help – I cannot get it to show an image – it looks like a nice module – it will show any text I enter but no image – I am pointing to the images folder in joomla with “*image/main” or an absolute address and nothing works – what am I doing wrong. I am using joomla1.6.3 on a Gantry/Paradox template.

      Hi,

      please try something like /images/headline_images/default/* or for a single image
      /images/headline_images/default/test.png

      Kind Regards

      Hi,
      i’ve done some testing with wamp :-)

      It’s looks like the basic setup have some heavy hight error logging please try to modify your php.ini (after thats restart apache webserver) use error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE instead of error_reporting = E_ALL

      The php notice messages dosn’t matter so much at all for me it solved the issues for now.

      I’ll do further investigation in that problems for the next release.

      Kind regards
      Daniel
