For months I have tried to figure out, how to use a script like the http://devkick.com/lab/galleria/demo_01.htm, mentioned above, for my picture galleries in CMS Builder. But I am just not good enough for the coding, it seems… [:/]

Above, it was described how to use another of the scripts, but there always is a conflict with the other code for the page, so things come out ugly! Some mix of the css styles is the main problem, I think!

Anyone, who have seen the light? Or anyone, who have a good solution for setting up a nice picture gallery in CMS Builder.

I have also tried this one out: http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/index.html?whichScript=image_slideshow

I could only get it to work with manually uploading the pictures… On the homepage it looks like this: http://www.fotostudio.fo/fs/privat.php

When I try to use it with CMS Builder, I just can’t get it to work, without destroying the layout of the homepage!

Help! HELP!!!

Hi einslistir,

If you can show us a working static (html) page and the full PHP source code for an "ugly" CMS Builder-integrated page, I can tell you what's going wrong. CMS Builder viewers don't need any CSS, and it's possible to mimic any static page with dynamic, CMS Builder-driven content.
All the best,
Chris

We've used the galleria code above in this post quite a few times. We did however change the css style sheet a bit.

Hi einslistir,

I know that you've put a lot of effort into your project so far, but you might want to consider switching to SlideShowPro. It's a product that's extremely flexible, and many of us have integrated with CMSB without issues. There's even a basic how to in the CMSB support section. at http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/cmsbuilder/slideshowpro.html

Since many of us have integrated this program there's also a large knowledge base to draw on.

Just my two cents...

Best,

Jerry Kornbluth

Hi,

I am using galleria for my new upcoming site. See example here: http://www.illumemag.com/newTemplates/articleDetail.php?EXCLUSIVE-New-Yorkers-Protest-Proposed-Ground-Zero-Mosque-8575

Would you happen to know how I can fix the thumbnail images so I can have a horizontal list instead of a vertical list? Also, if I only want...lets say 5 thumbnails to display...and hide the rest, how would i do that? the rest would appear and disappear as the user would click on the next/previous arrows.

Thanks for your help!
