Theme Joomla Modules

fizz replied to answer your questions...

1. In the demo it shows galleries and you click on the gallery and it goes to the slide show, in the pro version can I show one gallery per page and have it go straight to the slideshow? (e.g. you open the page and the slideshow just shows up)

Here is how it works - if you have the module set to show one gallery - the front end will go directly to that galleries slideshow, showing the slides. If you have more then one gallery set in the module, it will show the gallery selector (like in the demo) - so the answer to this question is... yes!

2. I am running a news site, and I am wondering if I can have multiple galleries (in the way I described) on multiple pages with different pictures and links to different articles (It may be like 70 or 80 pages).

Ok... there are 2 limits you need to be aware of. (1) If you are using Joomla's "module in content" plugin or creating a direct module link in a menu then you will only have one "setup" to display - as these options will read from the first instance of the module directly. (2) You cannot show more than 1 gallery on a single page - as the javascript goes mad, with issues of variable redeclaring etc...

What you can do is: duplicate the module a million times, assign each copy of the module to a different article (standard module menu assignment), with its own settings (galleries / slideshows) setup from the admin component. so in this case, once again - my answer is yes - just be aware of those 2 limits

kjones2719 replied Awesome for number 1.

My website has individual US State pages (e.g. Alabama, Arkansas, New York). I would want a slideshow on each of those pages. You are saying all i have to do is just make 50 modules post them on different pages, and I can have slideshows on different pages with different pictures.
Sorry if i rephrased, just want to make sure i can do this. Thanks for the quick response.

fizz replied What you would do is:

In the admin component, setup your 50 galleries (image slides in galleries), then copy the module 50 times, and in each module, set the module to show the respective gallery only. Then assign each respective module to each respective article page, like you would a normal module.

Give it a shot, if it does not work for you, we will give you a refund.

kjones2719 replied wow, real customer service

I could get used to this.

kjones2719 replied Great, I bought the software. 2 things:

1. I bought a duplicate copy by mistake how can I get a refund on the duplicate

2. I put the module on a test page but it shows the gallery, how can I get it to go directly to slideshow without clicking on the gallery.

fizz replied Here u go:

1. I bought a duplicate copy by mistake how can I get a refund on the duplicate

I have refunded you

2. I put the module on a test page but it shows the gallery, how can I get it to go directly to slideshow without clicking on the gallery.

Open the module, and check the module parameters - set the diplay multiple galleries to "no" and then select the gallery you would like to display in the parameters as well.
