Installation was easy, but I can't seem to figure out how to make it show up on the site. Am I missing something obvious?

It's pretty straightforward. One thing you need to be sure of is that you publish the module to an existing module position. Secondly, it should have a valid RSS feed, you can try with using the default RSS feed which comes by default in module. Feel free to get back in case you still find any issue.

when i use it, it shows the author name on the bottom. how would i remove it? i cant find any tools to remove... thanks

You need to edit code for removing the author. I assume you are referring to "Created by SopanTech Solutions" link.

We create and provide extensions free of cost hence we request our users to keep the author link. If you still want to remove it then we request you to donate using the button on top right of each page of the website.

You can still remove the link without any donation and we leave it to you to decide.

My feed URL looks like : http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=myFlickrId but no image are displayed in the module zone in my website. Is my URL wrong ? Or do I forgot to configure something in the module configuration ?

Thanks.

The URL seems to be correct. There could be the following reasons why it's not showing any images.

1. Your images/gallery may not be public.
2. Flickr ID you are using in the URL is incorrect. You can find your Flickr ID here - http://www.adamwlewis.com/articles/what-is-my-flickr-id

My feed: http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photoset.gne?set=7215760469937196 7&nsid=25935831@N04&lang=en-us
Unfortunately nothing happens. Picasa-feeds work perfectly. Leaving the set=setID out of the feed results in text: feed could not be loaded. Above complete Flickr-feed lead to nothing at all. Please help.

We acknowledge this as an issue with Ajax Slideshow module. This module is based on Google API and the module displays the feed images with help of Google API. We need to check if the module has the issue or the API itself doesn't work for Flickr. We will look into this and provide a fix at the earliest.

Try link in this format. It works, you can see the same RSS on our home page demo on left side.

Does it work with Facebook or Shutterfly?

As of not, it doesn't support Facebook and Shutterfly.

Is there a way to alter the picture resolution? When I choose not to scale, the picture becomes very small, but when I do the resolution becomes very bad.

Unfortunately as of now, there is no options to set the resolution of image. Please note that this limitation is not of the module but of the Google API on which this module is based.

I want to make a slideshow with text on the left and image on the right. The images are on my server. Can you please help me do this.

As of now, this module doesn't support showing text along with images.

Hi,

I am trying to incorporate this material on to a site to show off a FLICKR set. I have been researching what you showed above and tried to incorporate the change to public.gne. Unfortunately, that does not link me back to the set I am trying to display. Does this module simply not support sets? Is there a way to set that up? Thanks! It looks great. Hope I can get it working.

Could you please post your flickr set link here or send it to info [at] sopantech [dot]com

Hi! I can't manage to load 2 modules on one page.. the first module is showing up but the second shows only "loading.." message

Unfortunately the module doesn't support it at present. More than 1 module can't be published on the same page.

Hi!

Could you please help find out what the problem is here:
http://plantatrade.hu/joomla/

The route is fine.
The module has height set to 200px, and still it barely has any height.
What am I doing wrong?

You have specified height as 100px in the module settings but you should only specify 100, same goes for width. Then it should work as expected.

Thanks a lot!
The slideshow displays fine!
Than I guess there is no way of defining width in percentages, right?
HOw much is the preferred donation for hiding the sopantech link?

Hi,
great Module. This is what i am searching for. But I have problems with loading picasa pictures.
I want to see all pics in my picasa webfolder (http://picasaweb.google.com/TuS.Altenrath) If i have to select a special folder, than i can create one. But for testing, also a selected folder is not working (http://picasaweb.google.com/TuS.Altenrath/AltHerrenTurnier2010)
What is the exactly string, that i have to type in Feed URL in the module?
Thanxx and nice regards
Frank

Try the link below ins RSS field. You are using the album URL but you need to use album RSS which you can find at bottom of the page.

http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/TuS.Altenrath?alt=rss& kind=album&hl=en_US&access=public

Hi,
thanxx for the quick response.
I have the same result. Loading...
See no picasa pics.

Regards
Frank

Well, it's working well on this very page. Take a look at the slideshow. Wait for some time once it says "Loading", it takes a few seconds before it cache images and start displaying.

really strange.
I see nothing. Tested on IE and FF and two different PCs.
