Shape 5

How can I get the 'GCK content Fader version'. I want to implement it on my excisting site, but when I install the version which is available from the normal download, I cannot get it to work as in the Demo. How can I get the same functionality on my site?
Also: how can I control the vertical placement of the text? I want to move it up from the center.

Hello,

The latest version of the module will work with this template as well. Just be sure to save the configuration of the module the same way as the site shaper. If you don't have a site shaper installed, I would suggest installing one for reference in a sub folder.

You would have to adjust to the css for the text alignment, using a tool like Firebug. We don't provide customizations to the code as part of our support.

Hi Mike,
I did just that. I installed a reference copy of the site shaper.
Even copied the complete module map from the siteshaper into my live site.
But still it does not look the same.
Please see what I mean at : https://www.baroen.nl/index.php/snacks

The word 'Insekten' just above the picture, is what I entered in the module as Title1 text.
I just cannot get these words 'on top'of my picture.
Is there any specific CSS I have to extra copy from the siteshaper model?

Kind regards,
Jeroen

Hello,

You have several javascript problems on your site, which are causing the extension to break and problem other elements of the site. The first one that I see is that something on your site is calling an external jquery call:

  <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  <script src="/plugins/system/jqueryeasy/jquerynoconflict.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Jquery should never be called outside of the core framework of Joomla, and that is what this script is doing. Jquery is called from the core so that is not called more than once on the page, which will cause conflicts.

You will need to disable all third party extensions and scripts on your site to see which one is interfering.

Wow, that sounds hard to find.
So basiccally I should disable all modules on that page until the s5 fader works?
Best to do one at a time or all modules together?

Hello,

Yes, javascript errors are a pain to debug, because you don't know where it's coming from when there's a mix of third party scripts involved. It's best to disable all of them and bring them back on, in case it's more than one that is causing a problem.

Thanks, I'll get busy. Will post the outcome if I find the badguy, uhm badcomponent.
