How about you do a good deal for only your cobalt compatible extensions (as a bundle - when ready!) for the good people here?

Hey guys! In the past few months technically we re-wrote the whole slider. What it means for you? Soooo much powerful system with amazing CCK integration. Technically it's a new extension, but if you have an active license, then you can download it free. (But it's not compatible with the previous Slider!)

Check the DEMO: http://www.nextendweb.com/demo/smartslider2/

Have a great day! :)

@D Now we have a 20% coupon for the Smart Slider 2 (find it on our Facebook page )and if you purchase it, then you get an other 30% off coupon for the Accordion Menu too.

Just for "D." ? ;-)

BTW, the pricing/subcription model is hard to understand. Visually appealing and detailed table and text, but IMHO too difficult to get your head around. Is it just me?

Cobalt CCK generator

"...Also every field is available as variable which are defined for your types with the following syntax: {|TypeName_FieldName-1|} ..."

How does this work for multi-value fields or image related fields?

How to get a certain image of a gallery?

How to get a certain image size (thumbnail/resized/original) ?

Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to incorporate smart slider into the personalization port of sections (I already emailed smart slider but thought I would put this here as well.

Here's the basic summary.

  1. I'm using cobalt sections and the personalization portion.
  2. I've been able to pull in other apis (like Easy Social and Joobi) to embed other info onto my cobalt user page. I grab user id from url using this code: $userId = JFactory::getApplication()->input->getInt('user_id');

Is allowing me to embed the user data you are currently viewing on that page (since the url - renders the user id) page you are current viewing

What I want to do is only show slider images of that particular user you are viewing -- from their records. So I realize there would be some hard coding involved but I'm hoping there is a way to do this -- so again it automatically pulls the records from the user's page in cobalt perhaps using their Generator function or a view template in their module code.

See this screen shot attached that better explains: http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/416660/1e9cb9d891a978ab2c286089d2ea3e66

Thanks! Gene Teigland

gteigland

I am curious about their answer. Please, keep us posted ;)
Actually, I am sure they can "pass over" the userID#.
The current documentation screenshot looks like a fixed ID input.


BTW, did you notice the special Gallery template for the Records module?
As far as I know, this would show the user's records only.

HeadsUp: There is still a "bug" regarding the module display in homepage context!
So, you either have to load a module programatically in your userblock area.
Or with the help of Modules Anywhere! by NoNumber.nl


@Sergey
Would you mind to have a look into this module / user's homepge issue? I think this can be solved for Records module by adding a simple parameter checkbox. For instance, the 2 "Follow" modules work in always in user's homepage context. This display restriction should be "optional" for Records module.

Another idea and workaround: Add special Cobalt module-positions into userblock.php ;)
Maybe even more than one? i.e. above, left, right, below

I will for sure. Thanks for the module suggestion. I was thinking I would have to hard code or use modules anywhere.

gteigland I tried using the records module but my images are not appearing....I just get author and date.

Is it just hidden, or even not in page output/source?
