Now the threads are whited out:

Because your topics have no image. Please check and reupload the default image for that topics.

I'm a little confused. If there is no image in the topic shouldn't the slider be using the default image I uploaded?:

Yes, if topic has no image, the default image will be used. If you don't want the no-image topic, enable 'Ignore items if no image'

Try REVERT all templates and css of Featured Content, and then run Get Support to clear cache. If it still doesn't work, give me acp access so I can test it.

There was nothing to revert.

Hi,

Re this - Auto get contents from IPS applications: Pages, Forums, Gallery, Downloads, Clubs.

Where is the setting to get content from clubs and what image is used?

Thanks

Bug report

If you use popup option and the download has more than 1 image, it breaks the popup.

I can pm screenshot if required

Also I have noticed when enabled it has an impact on page speed load.

Is there any recommendations on a configuration that enables it to load as fast as possible if it is picking content from a large content base.

Thanks

Do you mean IP.Downloads images?

Enable this option doesn't have any effect to page speed because there are no more contents are loaded until you click on the link.

Would it be possible that you could move the JS and CSS Input code from the Hook to the Widget init() please?

        {
            \IPS\Output::i()->jsFiles = array_merge( \IPS\Output::i()->jsFiles, \IPS\Output::i()->js( 'fc43.js', 'featuredcontent', 'interface' ) );
            \IPS\Output::i()->jsFiles = array_merge( \IPS\Output::i()->jsFiles, \IPS\Output::i()->js( 'jquery.easing.min.js', 'featuredcontent', 'interface' ) );
        }

        if ( !\IPS\Request::i()->isAjax() )
        {
            \IPS\Output::i()->cssFiles = array_merge( \IPS\Output::i()->cssFiles, \IPS\Theme::i()->css( 'slider.css', 'featuredcontent', 'front' ) );
        }

 

The current method means that the JavaScript code and CSS styles get loaded each time regardless if there are Featured Blocks on the page or not.

Thanks 🙂

My sliders with manual contents do not display images. I have tried upload image and get from URL, both sliders miss the images.

When I edit them, I can see correct URL to the image resp. attached image in edit view. What do I make wrong?

Hi, another question. I would like to place the featured content between header and body layer (just above <main id='ipsLayout_body' class='ipsLayout_container'>). I edit the globalTemplate and add {fcontent="1"} at the place where featured content should be. Saved and then if I look on the site I see literally {fcontent="1"} there and not the slider. I thought it were a kind of template tag

Hello,

Just purchased this app - looks very promising! 🙂

However, I'm a bit confused about some things.  I created a test slider and want to add all of its content manually.  I created it in the Slider Manager and configured it in the General, Slider, and Contents tabs.  I then tried to add it through the Block Manager, where I can configure the slider, where to show it, specific pages to show the slider on, etc.  But am I missing something really obvious?  If I don't want to add content from my board apps for this slider, exactly how to I manually add the content to this slider?  I can't seem to find a place to add links (YouTube) or specific URLs, etc.

PS I have allow_url_fopen enabled on my VPS.

Thanks!

@liquidfractal did you set 'No Auto' for your slider?

And permission "Manage Slider"?

 

After setup the widget, you will see

You will need to add image, url, title manually

 

If you can not make it work, please give me acp access so I can take a look.

[LiquidFractal]

@onlyME thanks for the quick reply.  Everything's fine - I had configured everything correctly, but I think I had to completely reload the page or clear the cache in order for the widget's Add option to appear.  Everything's working now.  Thanks! 🙏

[LiquidFractal]

Ahh, found one very small detail: my slider comes up fine, but the Manage Slider wheel in the top-right corner has an undefined language string (fcontent_manageslider).

Thanks again for a great app!

[Wonster]

I would like to show a specific block as a slider. This is a useful feature because i can add any type of content, including custom manual html or editor

Can you add this?
