@ contink

Eveything looks fine. Site is much faster now

@richardp

You should be able to create a new module item and then stick the html code for your flash inside. You will be limited to where you can place the flash by the sites module positions.

sysman, can I just ask how you got rid of the title above the smoothgallery on the front page? Trying to do this on another site and I cant find it anywhere, also how did you get the text to pop up like that on the image? is that done through CSS?

Thanks

@ Inox

To get rid of the title just set the module setting "Show title:" to No.

As for the pop ups under the Smoothgallery module settings, make sure "Title and Description bar" is enabled. This then takes the Title and Description you entered in the the image proerties and makes it pop up

lol, this is fun - I alredy had show title set to no and title and secription bar was enabled, the first option makes no difference and the 2nd displayed the text underneath in normal txt, no popup stuff. I had unpublished the module last night and now that I have published it again it's only displaying the title and not the graphics!

Any ideas sysman? while I read through the smoothgallery rather unhelpful forums!

Silly question but which version of Smoothgallery are you using?

**Inox** · 18th May 2007, 09:35 AM

V1.0 Dated: January-15-2007
Downloaded it last night from the joomlashack forum post

18th May 2007, 09:45 AM

Have you got anything else like lightbox / slimbox / flash itmes in your index.php other than the stuff needed for smoothgallery?

Also you got a link to the affected site?

**Inox** · 18th May 2007, 09:47 AM

nope, nothing extra, just bog standard joomla install with a template.
Affected website

Looking at the page source the following code is at the end of the page

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://preview1.websyshosting.co.uk/holytrinity/modules/mod_js_smoothgallery/css/jd.gallery.css" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" />
<script src="http://preview1.websyshosting.co.uk/holytrinity/modules/mod_js_smoothgallery/mootools.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://preview1.websyshosting.co.uk/holytrinity/modules/mod_js_smoothgallery/jd.gallery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

It should be in the header section of your index.php before the </head> tag.

**Inox** · 18th May 2007, 10:09 AM

yep, this is the code from the index.php file, I have compared it to where you put it in yours and it's the same. It's located at the bottom of the file as there are no other <head> sections:

Code:

<head>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/modules/mod_js_smoothgallery/css/jd.gallery.css" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" />
<script src="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/modules/mod_js_smoothgallery/mootools.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/modules/mod_js_smoothgallery/jd.gallery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

</head>

just remembered I have the JCE editor installed too, just been reading up and found that the JCE utilities and smoothgallery have issues when together, howver I used the link on your site to get just the editor and you have them both working, so i don't think it's that

I really apriciate all your help on this sysman!

18th May 2007, 10:25 AM

So if I understand you right you have placed the code at the bottom of your templates index.php file?

Try replacing your templates index.php with the one attached. It's the original version from your template with the code added in the correct location.

See how it compares to yours.

Hope it works

**Inox** · 18th May 2007, 11:22 AM

lol, I realise what I had done now, was looking at the root index.php file, which actually worked last night! <-- dont understand how, anyways, when i replace the one in the template folder with the one you posted all i get is a blank window and the source code shows only the basic <html></html> commands

**Inox** · 18th May 2007, 11:25 AM

ah, got it to display! forgot to take code back out of root index.php ;-p
Now just need to get rid of the big title wording!

**Inox** · 18th May 2007, 11:33 AM

right, now it's displaying each item underneath each other with the description still showing but in lrger text than when desciptions is turned on.
