Carousel linked to multiple collection of pictures 12 Years, 7 Months ago Karma: 0
Hello !

I am using your extension for a short time now, and I think it is great !!

I have a question now and I'll take an example to illustrate my question:
I have a carousel with thumbnails of food (vegetables, fruit, beverage)
    * The 4 pictures are located in stories/food/vegetable.png fruit.png etc...
When I click on fruit, I don't want a lightbox with vegetables/fruit/beverage but I want a lightbox with apple/orange/banana
    * These 3 pictures are located in stories/food/fruit/apple.png orange.png etc...
Again when I click on vegetables, I don't want a lightbox with vegetables/fruit/beverage but I want a lightbox with potatoes/tomatoes/salad
    * These 3 pictures are located in stories/food/vegetables/potatoes.png tomatoes.png etc...
I think you have understood my question. Is it possible ? How to do it if it is possible ?

Thank you so much for your help...

Hello,

The extension can show external links when a user clicks by thumbnails. For this necessary to place links into an INI file. You can create several articles, load necessary images in it and associate thumbnails with appropriate articles with help INI file.

Thanks for your help !

What do you mean by "load necessary images" ?

With this method (back to my first example), when I'll click on fruit, I'll see a page with an apple, an orange and a banana.

I bought AriPrettyPhoto and I use it with the Carousel: How can I load the ariprettyphoto lightbox in order to have a gallery with the 3 fruits photos ?

Maybe it's what you just explained to me, but in this case, I don't understand how to load the three images in the article.

(PS: Do you speak french ? It will be faster for both of us to speak in this case )

Sorry, we don't speak French. It is not possible to load images from specific folder into a lightbox automatically when a user clicks by a thumbnail, but it is possible to show an article or other remote page into a lightbox when a user clicks by a thumbnail. In your case you can create articles and show necessary images in these articles. After this associate articles with carousel images with help an INI file.

Allright, I understand. Thanks for your help anyway. I'll see if I can do it with an article.
A last question: in order to create the link, is there a way to use the ID of the article instead of an url (www.mywebsite.com/fruits) in the INI file ?

Thanks !!

You can use the next link:

Code:


index.php?option=com_content&view=article&tmpl=component&id=ARTICLE_ID



Where ARTICLE_ID is article id.
