Webpart for image slideshow
I'm looking for a webpart which can do this :
I want to show on top of my page an image slideshow. I want to link about 10 images and these images must change every 2 seconds into the next one. Some kind of image slideshow. Is this functionality available in Kentico ?

Hi,

there is a Content slider web part which you can use. It is based on mootools so you cannot use any web part which is based on javascript on the same page.

You can also use the repeater with effect web part and download some sliding javascript which will ensure the effect.

Best regards,
Ivana Tomanickova

Thanks for the information. Is it possible to link the content slider or repeater to a media library ?

Hi,

you can use Media File datasource webpart in cooperation with the Media File List webpart. This will allow you to show up all the files within appropriate media library. This media library can be chosen within the Media File List webpart properties.

Once you have all the files in the datasource, it is just about correct transformation. Basically, you'll need to have correct syntax when speaking about an external JavaScript. Then you'll append the CSS styles and JavaScripts to the master page and you are all set.

Best regards,

Is there a way around this? I have two webparts on my home page and now one of them won't work... one is the content slider and one is a custom repeater with effect: www.mig.com
The top one won't work now.

Hi,

I don't see ant issue in your site, have you resolved the issue?
You are answering to the thread with last answer a half year old, so more details about your issue would be helpful.
Generally, please check javascript libraries conficts, e.g. our jQuery with other libs - see e.g. this KB article for more details.
