I think it would be a good idea to add a header above the video window - something like "user's featured video" or something? Or maybe that should be something that could be toggled on/off?

doh! sorry about that...that's what i get for doing 5 things at once. Sorry!

Sorry lol....you replied while I was revising my original post. The player doesn't show in my blog post: https://www.liquidfractal.org/blogs/entry/118-new-external-media-player/

Great app! A previous post mentioned support for blogs, but I tried it in a blog post and the player doesn't show (works fine for forums though).

Bumping this in the hopes that there is a way to fix this...?

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.

Thanks to @TheJackal84, who generously spent time and energy shuttling PMs back and forth with me and updating a patch so I could use the Profile Backgrounds plugin with @TAMAN's Magnum theme. Awesome support.

Ok, I get the logic to that. But I wonder if there could/should be a configurable option to set most recent on top/bottom?

Sure. Do you need admin access? If so, I will PM you.

I just noticed that when you have multiple Sticky Notes, the most recent one seems to be on the bottom of the pile. E.g., I left myself a couple of SNs, and another user sent me one and that was buried under the other two. Shouldn't the most recent SN be on the very top? Or, if they're from different users, what if they were shifted slightly from the other pile so they could be distinguished?

I love the app, but has anyone else had an issue using Notices on a site's mobile view? I put a small Notice on my site, and while it works fine on a desktop view when I visit my site on mobile the Notice comes up, but it's like impossible to dismiss, however many times I tap the X. I think it happened maybe once or twice (and with Opera!), but most of the time I can't get rid of it.

Any chance this could be made to work with @TAMAN's Magnum theme? I just purchased this and of my two active themes (Magnum and default), it will only work with the default.

Re: the searchability of FAQ questions: This might be reaching, but I was wondering if there was a way to redirect search results to the actual page in which the FAQ group for that question is included? I ask because if, for example, you visit my site as a guest, enter a search term that shows up in the FAQs then click that FAQ result, you're taken to the full-page FAQ listing which a) doesn't have lightbox windows, and b) doesn't have the other information which might be on a page associated with that FAQ. It doesn't look nearly as appealing as the default FAQ page which has the FAQ widget/s. But I'm not sure if anything can be done about this. What's more, the searchability of FAQ questions seems to bypass FAQ question permissions: I made a collection Admin-only, but when I visit my site as a Guest and search for a relevant keyword I can get to the questions. Ideally, there could be a way to toggle this searchability on/off...?

@TheJackal84...just wanted to say I really like the way you keep improving this app - keep it up! Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this, but one person's two cents: it might be easier to provide groups who can send personal SNs with the ability to delete old notes in their management screen so that the Admin doesn't have to do it all the time. Or did you do this for a specific reason? Also: has anyone brought up the idea of email notifications for new SNs?

Ok, here's what I did, following the directions in teh Swiper Slider tab: I created a new database, "Services" and entered a couple of sample records Now, following your directions I went to Blocks and created a new block: Plugin, feed from "Services" Changed the template key to Pages_Slider_Articles In the Content tab, changed the default template to Pages_slider_articles Now I get an error with my feed block: on the Details tab, the Template Key throws an error: "The block key is not unique" EDIT: So I realised early on that the "Template key" (which isn't actually for the template at all) needs to be a unique block key, which solves that problem (your docs need to be changed I think)...but whenever I try and place the custom block on a page I just get a large blank space.

I was going to ask about having more than 5 sliders, and I read this answer: The problem as I see it with this is that for some of us it would involve restructuring parts of our sites. I just got things set up on my site and I realise now that a few more would be really really good. Is it truly impossible?

With all due respect, my experience with browsers instantly tells me that the problem is IE. I think it's hands-down the worst browser out there - it routinely has problems with CSS and other code that other browsers have zero problems with. Ideally you want your entire site completely compatible with every browser platform, but as long as Microsoft still insists on creating the web in its own obsolete image via Internet Exploder my advice would be to request your users use a real browser. My two cents.

+++. I mentioned this before, but if one could enable the slider for only certain pages (by name), that would improve greatly on an already great theme. @TAMAN, could you tell me what to put in my custom.css to change the color of the emoticon menu window? Right now mine looks like this: so I'd obviously prefer to change the dark blue to a lighter colour. thanks!

Wondering too if there is anything to resolve this?

I've found a problem with the News Ticker: if you try to add a phrase with a comma in the default Ticker section, the theme will break your sentence in half at the location of the comma and create two separate News Ticket entries. For some reason this doesn't apply to the custom Ticker entry area (commas work there), which leaves me wondering what exactly the difference is between the default and custom Ticker areas?

Worked like a charm...thanks again!

I've also noticed that after adding notifications to the News Ticker that the bullet point (●) separating ticket items disappears before it finishes crossing the ticker area!

Just to let you know - this didn't work. I just tried it now, and the space between the Create, Notification/Message icons and the user name/menu did not change.

Thinking about the idea of a FAQ system, it occurs to me that it would be nice to be able to create sub-questions within a FAQ question for questions related to the main question, but which for one reason or another don't merit a separate FAQ entry. Basically, the ability to create multiple grey-heading questions (as per the above screenshot) within one FAQ question. This might also finesse what can be a somewhat repetitive structure where you have the question in large font at the top of the FAQ window, followed by a repetition of the same question in the grey field.

One minor issue I just found: double quotes don't display properly in the FAQ window: Single quotes work fine however.
