ce_slider_jquery

Hi guys. I want to make you know of my new extension: ce_slider_jquery

It's a content element slider just like ce_slider but written with jQuery and designed around Contao 2.10 instances with HTML5 Boilerplate extension installed. It still needs some work for a stable release, but I'm working on it.

It uses Slides jQuery plugin by Nathan Searles which has been released under Apache license.

The German lang file has been made with Google Translate, so don't put too much attention to it by now :)

It still doesn't run in jQuery compatibility mode, so don't put it toghether with MooTools.

That's all. If you have any issues write down here. Thank you :)

Have a nice day

Hi,

I try your extension with the boilerplate-extension.

I have a little problem:

I dont see my own with an heigh in the generated css - only the default 640x400px

If I used a own template like this

Code:

---

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
        #<?php echo $this->Container; ?> .slides_container {
                width: <?php echo $this->Width; ?>px;
                height: <?php echo $this->Height; ?>px;
        }
        #<?php echo $this->container; ?> .slides_container div {
                width: <?php echo $this->Width; ?>px;
                height: <?php echo $this->Height; ?>px;
                display: block;
        }
</style>

<pre>
<?php $this->showTemplateVars(); ?>
</pre>

---

so you can see two bugs:
* $this->container; shold $this->Container;
* and I dont see the TempateVars in the frontend...??

thanks zonky

Hi Zonky,
thanks for the issue, as you said there was in fact a mistype in the templates value Container.
Also the Width and Height problem has been solved.
As for the $this->Template vars, I created three of them: one for HTML, another for CSS and the last one for JS.
The $this->strTemplate has been assigned to the choosen html one.
Also I fixed the code in the templates on the XHTML version and added a dependency to the jquery module.

I've created a public repo on Github: http://github.com/liquiddiamond/ce_jquery_slider
Everyone can contribute by sending their pull requests.

Sorry for the late reply, It has been a very busy December.

I've renamed the github repository to ce_slider_jquery (coherently with the module name)
The Github link has been updated: https://github.com/liquiddiamond/ce_slider_jquery.git

Hello,

It would be nice if you could add a fade effect in the effect list
