My site: www.adobewerks.com (now with boolean search!) I want a slide show feature built into the gallery itself.. so that the user can be browsing pictures and decide to have fwd to the next pic auto after set amount of time. As it is, i have the standard slide show, but this feature confuses my mom, and thats my standar: If my mom cant use it, its too complicated! i have also experimented with the Slideshow Applet. This also is a little too complicated for my mom. Maybe i am missing something. I have a large site and I am pretty set on my Theme (classis-modified. Does anyone have a suggestion on how i can achieve a simple slide show built into the theme itself? |

I think the only way to add a different slideshow is to modify the Classic theme. You might try getting familiar with Ajaxian or one of the other themes that has an alternate slideshow feature. If you're comfortable with JavaScript and Gallery's theme system, you might be able to merge Ajaxian's slideshow with Classic.

try this
go under /modules/slideshow/templates/Slideshow.tpl
look for,
<div id="gsContent" class="gcBorder1">
<div id="toolbar" class="gbBlock gcBackground1">
<a id="stop" href="{g->url arg1="view=core.ShowItem"
arg2="itemId=`$SlideShow.itemList[$SlideShow.start].id`"}">
{g->text text="Stop"}
</a>
<a href="#" onclick="start_stop();return false">
<span id="pause">{g->text text="Pause"}</span>
</a>
<a href="#" onclick="jump(-2);return false">
{g->text text="Previous Image"}
</a>
<a href="#" onclick="text_onoff();return false">
<span id="moreInfo">{g->text text="Show More Info"}</span>
</a>
this section defines the buttons in the slideshow.
add this part in,
<a href="#" onclick="jump(0);return false">
{g->text text="Next Image"}
</a>
