Discussion on Slider Maker

Hi,

Thanks for purchase, and for reporting.

I’ll test, make corrections and come back to you very soon.

Hi Fdesanto,

I solved the first issue (not really an issue, but an cool improvement) But I tested Title & Link as you told me and didn’t find anything wrong.

Could you please send me a screenshot, or try to explain more what happens ?

I’ll publish the update later, so please contact me using my contact form : I’ll send you the 2 files to replace to solve 1st issue, and this way you can attach screenshot or anything you want.

Thanks,

Gilles

Hi Azuanet,

You have to use code generated in admin panel. Images are those inside data-dir, and all settings come from json file.

If you need anything else you’re welcome,

Gilles

Hi Regie,

Yes, it’ll be easy. You can try live demo at https://www.slider-maker.com/slidermaker/admin/login.php

And of course I’m available for any help request.

Gilles

I just answered you, it should solve your problem (issue comes from your style.css).

If you need anything else you’re welcome,

Gilles

Gilles solved my issue from my css quickly! Thank you.

Thanks so much for your good rating !

Come back to me at any time,

Gilles

Hi,

Thanks for purchase.

This is not Google ads, but just the preloader I choosed for Slider Maker !

You’re right, colors are Google’s ones, this is because Slider Maker uses Material Design

If you want I can work to add an option to choose other preloaders.

Just tell me & I’ll take time for this.

Except this remark, is all ok for you with Slider Maker ?

Gilles

Hi Ikmansri,

Thanks for your advice : I thought it was clear, but I’ll update description to explain.

There’s almost nothing to install : you just have to upload package on your server.

Then open authentification setup page on your browser to set your login & password, and go to slider maker’s admin url.

Documentation is available here : https://www.slider-maker.com/slidermaker/#!/quick_start_guide

Hello,

If I understand you have 2 different things to achieve :

- integrate Slider Maker admin panel into your existing admin - configure somewhere the slider to use for homepage and add code to homepage to load it automatically

Is it correct ?

Can you please contact me here : https://www.miglisoft.com/#contact and send me your ftp access + url ?

I cannot help more until I see your code.

Gilles

Hi,

Yes, that’s easy. You can test with online admin demo here: https://www.slider-maker.com/slidermaker/admin/

1/ Add a folder to create your slider

2/ Upload your images inside your new folder

3/ Go to the Settings tab, and select transitions: fade in/out

4/ Go to the preview tab and you’ll see your slider in action.

If you need anything else you’re welcome,

Gilles

Merci pour votre réponse. J’ai trouvé ce que je voulais avec un autre auteur.

Bonne chance avec votre produit, merci de m’avoir informé

Hi,

Thanks for purchase. Which buttons do you mean?

You can customize many settings in /slidermaker/conf.php
conf.php allows to disable login and “take a tour” buttons.

If you need something more specific, please contact me, tell me a bit more and send me your ftp + url

Thanks,

Gilles

Hello,

Thanks for purchase and for your compliments (please rate if you like the script, it helps for SEO & visibility)

I’ve no problem with admin on my localhost, and cannot solve this without more information. Would you contact me and send me a screenshot of browser’s console ?

If you want we can have a Teamviewer session – send me your ID and pass, I’ll try to connect. This way I’ll be able to test on your localhost.

About different duration time on each image/video, you’re right, this would be a good (and required) improvement. I add this on top of my TODO list. I don’t have so much time to achieve it these days, but I’ll do as soon as possible.

Gilles

Hi,

This is not a built-in feature, but you can easily program this with php on your page. If you don’t know how to proceed I can make it for you.

I’d love to add this kind of features and many others to Slider Maker, but I’ve got to wait for more sales and benefits to invest more time in this for now.

If you need anything else you’re welcome,

Gilles

Hello migli,

Sorry for the late reply, I just got home…I appreciate your return message, and I will check back with you in regards to this as I am really trying to find something like this as a built-in feature, but if I don’t find anything, I will likely come back here to you.

Thank you Brian

You’re welcome

Hello Philipp,

1/ Yes, you can have several slideshows on your page. Example here: https://www.slider-maker.com/slidermaker/demo-files/slideshows/several-sliders-on-same-page.php

2/ The play/pause buttons can be done with a few lines of Javascript. I can help you for this if you give me your ftp.

If you need anything else you’re welcome,

Gilles

Hi Wendy,

Thanks for purchase and for your encouragements.

Here’s how to setup your play/pause buttons.

Let’s say you have a slider in a folder named “my-slider”.

1. add your play/pause buttons below your slider div:
   

   <p><a id="pause-btn" href="#">Pause</a><a id="play-btn" href="#">Play</a></p>

2. Add this script on your page (I’ve just done it & tested for you):
   

   <script type="text/javascript">
       var playSlider = function() {
               slider.nextSlide();
               timer = setTimeout(playSlider, 3000);
           },
           pauseSlider = function() {
               clearTimeout(timer);
           },
           slider,
           timer,
           $playBtn,
           $pauseBtn;
       var sliderMySliderCallback = function () {
           slider = $( '#my-slider0' ).data('sliderPro');
           $playBtn = $('#play-btn');
           $pauseBtn = $('#pause-btn');
           $playBtn.on('click', function() {
               timer = setTimeout(playSlider, 3000);
           });
           $pauseBtn.on('click', function() {
               pauseSlider();
           });
       };
   </script>

Quick explainations:

- When a slideshow is loaded, it automatically looks for a callback function named slider-[YourSliderFolderName]Callback, where “YourSliderFolderName” is the camelcase name of your slider.

- The div which contains the slideshow (”#my-slider0”) in the js code must be the name of your slideshow + “0”, or the index of your slideshow if you have several slideshows on your page.

- If you need more help you can try to catch me on chat at https://www.phpformbuilder.pro, or by email, and send me your url & ftp.

Hi,

Thanks for quick reply.

I’ll give this a go and get back to you in the week.

WP

Thanks to you

Hi,

Thanks for purchase. I’ll have a look at this on tomorrow morning and try to give you a cool solution.

Gilles

cool thanks. Also I second the ‘option for choosing a different preloader’... but for now is there a way to override it vs. adding it as an option in the UI?

This is a cool product too, good job.

Hi,

I’ve been thinking about the subfolders. Depending on what you need, there are two ways to do it (the first fairly simple, the second more complicated).

1. The slider folder is defined by a constant in slidermaker/conf.php: define(‘SLIDERS_DIR’, DIR .’/sliders/’); The idea is to remove this constant from the configuration file, and define it in slidermaker/admin/index.php. In this way the directory to use can be sent by a form (the user chooses his directory in a drop-down list, or you can define it yourself if there are several users with different accesses.

Only the selected directory will appear in the file browser, with its own sliders.

Important: each directory must contain a subdirectory.xmlfiles, containing itself a template.xml file on the slidermaker/sliders/.xmlfiles/template.xml model.

So when a slider directory is created you have to create.xmlfiles/template.xml inside.

So far I’ve tested it and it works well, but I haven’t gone any further.

2. The 2nd solution allows to display directly all parent directories with sliders directories inside directly in the file browser. It’s more complicated because you have to access the El Finder API.

In slidermaker/admin/index.php you will find this line: if (hash !=’undefined’ && elfinder.parents(hash).length == 2) {

“2” means we have to be in a direct child file from El Finder. If you replace “3” it will list the images in the subdirectories and display the “add image” button.

Where it gets complicated is that you have to send the files to El Finder’s connector. Currently the sent folder is “object.cwd().name” in the listImages function. You have to find a way to send something like “parent/” + object.cwd().name

About the preloader: It’s just a css: slidermaker/assets/scss/core/_core.scss

You can perform a global search/replace in slidermaker/assets/css and replace with the css of your choice (loading gif or other).

That’s all for now, I hope it helps.

Thanks !

I actually found the solution on my previous problem myself. I can tell my client to rename multiple images simultaneous with the F2 button (in windows) before uploading them. Again, really awesome and clean slideshow!

I actually found a solution for my previous problem myself. I just ask my client to rename multiple images simultaneous with the F2 button (in Windows). Again, really awesome and clean slideshow!

The problem doesn’t come frome the slideshow maker, but from the browser, which keeps images in cache.
As you may have seen, images filenames are automatically cleaned, and they’re indexed. if you upload the same image (or 2 different with the same name), they will be renamed as img.jpg, img-1.jpg, ... etc.

You may suggest to your client a browser extension to clen the cache, or to keep the dev tools open to avoid the cache.
