[vt] Nivo Slider for OXID eShop 4.7+

English forums
1

Hello,
i just finished the 2nd version of my Nivo Slider module.
Here is the website about Nivo Slider ( http://dev7studios.com/nivo-slider/ ),
My module replaces the default slider on the start page with the nivo slider.
New feature: the slider is now available on all pages. You can setup the options for paricular pages in OXID backend in module settings.
In good faith i restricted the slider to the non-checkout and non-user account pages only.

you will find more detailed manual and description here:

in case of problems or questions please use this thread here.

Hi, first all thanks for sharing your amazing module, it’s a beautiful piece of work!
I use it on Oxid CE 4.7.6 but i have a pair of problems.
1-I can’t handle the new feature (the slider available on all
pages), I see slider in all my site pages checkout included and don’t
find the section in backend where change it.
2-I have customized slider
size and it works fine but section below (manifacture
slider and Bestseller) conflicts and stop working when some Nivo
effects (like squares or slides on default Nivo sequence efx) starting.

Additional information: I use Azure(1.3 version)
thanks :slight_smile:

This way (from github instructions) the slider shows up on all pages:

 
[{block name="vt_nivo"}]  
[{if $oView->getClassName()=='start' && $oView->getBanners()|@count > 0 }]  
    <div class="oxSlider">  
        [{include file="widget/promoslider.tpl" }]  
    </div>  
[{/if}]  
[{/block}]

That way you get it on start page only (should better be default):

 
[{if $oView->getClassName()=='start' && $oView->getBanners()|@count > 0 }]
[{block name="vt_nivo"}]
    <div class="oxSlider">
        [{include file="widget/promoslider.tpl"}]
    </div>
[{/block}]
[{/if}]

However I wonder why the module settings in Admin tab do not work at all (none !) on my system with Oxid defaut images from promoslider:
Oxid 474 CE Demo Shop, PHP 5.3.3, tested on three mayor browsers (cleared everything tmp, cache, views, cookies, deactivated/activated module etc. - no way).

Vanilla Thunder, please advise under what configuration the Admin settings work on latest module version.
