Ramsesx Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 Nice one, is there a live site demo anywhere? The embedded resource leads to a wrong path:

Azurette Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 Taman, is there a way to change the background color for the slideshow? When it starts, the page is white before the images begin. I'd like to change it to black. Is there a way to do this? Thank you!! TAMAN and Foolboy 2
Foolboy Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 (edited) Hi @TAMAN. Thank you for developed this plugin! I am currently playing with it and have a suggestion; the remove background image option should be moved to configuration tab. Because I tried the video background from Youtube and found that if the remove custom body background is not turned on from this page, the custom background will still overlay the Youtube video. (I tried with both IPS original theme and your Magnum theme) I agree with @Azurette about background color in the slideshow dialog. Can you set it to use background-color: {theme="dialogbg"}; so it would be matched with current theme? Also I think the character "r" is missing from the plugin name. Edit: and the "e" in Textures section name too. Edited September 14, 2017 by Foolboy Azurette and TAMAN 2

Lucas James Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 The white back ground on refresh is terrible. I'd rather just have a default background then use this plugin and have a white flash background appear every page load.

Optic14 Posted October 10, 2017 Posted October 10, 2017 Works great @TAMAN Thanks for releasing. Just wondering if you would consider adding an option to deactivate the plugin for certain pages? The setting "Remove body backgrounds" is so powerful it is affecting another plugin I use for custom user upload profile background images. Otherwise maybe easier if I try to find a way to wrap a conditional to exclude this plugin from executing for just member profile view? Any ideas on approach would be appreciated.
LiquidFractal Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 (edited) Is there any way to allow the site member to choose a background, or to stop a slideshow if it starts annoying them? It looks as if this is all Admin controlled. EDIT: never mind - I re-read the description, which says that users can choose their own background. But I don't see a background picker on the demo page at http://hellshammers.net/tit/index.php?/background-slideshow/. Edited October 22, 2017 by liquidfractal

But if it's a background slideshow, the site in the previous link seems to have only one static background. How long until the slideshow changes? Or I guess it's a background slideshow for the middle area? Edited October 23, 2017 by liquidfractal

LiquidFractal Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) Not sure if anyone has asked this yet, but is it possible to make the background picker available on a per-group basis? I'd prefer to enable it only for certain member groups. EDIT: after tinkering with it a bit more, a couple more ideas in addition to making the Picker accessible to selected groups: the ability to reorder slideshow images, if possible, would be really helpful is there any way to keep the slideshow from resetting to the first (top) image every time the user clicks through to another page? Someone who is casually browsing a site will always reset to the first image, which doesn't always look very good in the browsing experience. For continuity's sake it would be nice to have the slideshow unaffected by user browsing. Edited November 22, 2017 by liquidfractal
NaisA- Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 @TAMAN I noticed the background picker in the Userbar doesn't have a tooltip. How do I add this?

TAMAN Posted February 28, 2018 Author Posted February 28, 2018 Just now, The Asian said: Thanks, can I suggest the tooltip should be 'Change Background'. I will use language strings then you can change it here ACP > Customizations > Languages, look for Background picker and then change the phrase
NaisA- Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) Hey @TAMAN on top of my last request, I found an issue with the plugin that you may be able to address in the next update. I was setting up SSL certification for our forum and ran into this issue. https://www.suttersolutions.com/2018/Forums_-_Allied-Gaming_2018-04-09_11-43-04.jpg It seems this is happening with both this plugin and the Swiper Slider with most of your themes. If this could be fixed ASAP I'd greatly appreciate it. Edited April 9, 2018 by The Asian

NaisA- Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 @TAMAN I fixed the issue, it wasn't caused by the plugin. TAMAN 1
