Theme Joomla Modules

Images won't load in Power Slide

I'm trying to run a simple image rotator in the header area of a site. It works perfectly for the homepage template but the module stalls loading the content under the sub-templates. I'm not sure where the conflict is coming from as the two template's are essentially the same. The images are all in powerslide/images and they don't contain spaces. I tried running it in the default joomla template but it still wouldn't run. here.Here is the test site and works fine until you navigate to any of the other pages. I also tried running it with and without Mootools and still no change. I know it's likely something simple but would appreciate any help pointing me in the right direction. Sorry about the site it's more then a little rough still and trying to wrap my head around Joomla so I'm using a rather simple template atm.

fizz replied SEF urls not rewriting correctly

I found the issue. You have SEF urls turned on and it is not rewriting the urls correctly:
It is doing this: 

http://solsource.kalvanna.com/index.php/contractor


When it should be something like this: 

http://solsource.kalvanna.com/contractor/index.php


At the moment the html thinks it is in [site name]/index.php/ and when you add the images path because they are relative it makes it [site name]/index.php/images/powerslide/webelieve.jpg which does not exist. You can try setting the module parameter Thumbnail method to Absolute to see if that will sort. Joomla's built in SEF engine does not do a perfect job. I recommend using sh404sef. This is a great product and will correctly rewrite the urls (you can rewrite them yourself as well if you like).

natesten replied That did it

Never realized I clicked that on, just thought Joomla handled urls funny. Thanks a million.

fizz replied Awesome

Glad you got sorted out
