Put the code below into a custom PHP block.
$images = array(
'image1_url',
'image2_url',
'image3_url',
'image4_url',
);
$delay = 1;
$num_images = count($images);
echo '
<img id="slideshow" src="" />
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
var images = [';
for ($i = 0; $i < $num_images; $i++)
echo '["', $images[$i], '"]', ($i == $num_images - 1) ? '' : ',';
echo '];
var current_image = 0;
var num_images = ', $num_images, ';
var timer;
function changeImage()
{
if (current_image == num_images)
current_image = 0;
document.getElementById("slideshow").src = images[current_image];
current_image = current_image + 1;
var timer = setTimeout("changeImage();", ', $delay * 1000, ');
}
changeImage();
// ]]></script>';
Change the $delay variable to change the ammount of time between slides, change the $images variable to the list of image urls that you want to show.

Nice one, works a treat.

Eey, I found the mistake?
$images = array(
$settings['image_url'] = "'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg'",
$settings['image1_url'] = "'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg'",
$settings['image2_url'] = "'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg'",
$settings['image3_url'] = "'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg'",
);
Idk what the script does, but you forgot to insert the numbers???
-
Try:
$images = array(
'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg',
'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg',
'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg',
'/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg',
);
for the images array part of the code.
-
Dear Sir,
I have alreday put the code follow your suggestion and it abnormal working because it not found image to display. In my opinion(not sure), the url in form of php is wrong?
note:
-I use SMF 10.1.11 and put the code on index.themplate.php
C:\AppServ\www\telemusic\Themes\ciziksehir\images\Big_set -> image url
C:\AppServ\www\telemusic\Themes\ciziksehir\index.template.php -> file script to insert
Please advice me how to correct. Thanks you. (Sorry, I'm not advance in english)
$images = array( '/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg', '/Big_set/b-picture2.jpg', '/Big_set/b-picture3.jpg', '/Big_set/b-picture4.jpg', );
$delay = 1;
$num_images = count($images);
echo '
<img id="slideshow" src="" />
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
var images = [';
for ($i = 0; $i < $num_images; $i++)
echo '["', $images[$i], '"]', ($i == $num_images - 1) ? '' : ',';
echo '];
var current_image = 0;
var num_images = ', $num_images, ';
var timer;
function changeImage()
{
if (current_image == num_images)
current_image = 0;
document.getElementById("slideshow").src = images[current_image];
current_image = current_image + 1;
var timer = setTimeout("changeImage();", ', $delay * 1000, ');
}
changeImage();
// ]]></script>';

"C:\AppServ\www\telemusic\Themes\ciziksehir\images\Big_set" is not a url, that is a file path.
A url looks like this 'http://www.site.com/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg' (which is what you currently have for the images array).
-
Dear Nathaniel,
Thanks you for your response. I'm just understand for the url is 'http://www.site.com/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg'.
So, if I would like to use image path how could I perform that?
Note: For the array( '/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg', '/Big_set/b-picture2.jpg', '/Big_set/b-picture3.jpg', '/Big_set/b-picture4.jpg', ); is not work now.
-
Try using the exact url for those images, like 'http://www.site.com/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg' instead of '/Big_set/b-picture1.jpg'. Make sure that the url for each image is correct. (you should be able to put that url into your browser and view the image with your browser)
-
could this code be change to get random images from a file basically set a file url not image url
-
Think this would make a good feature addition. At the moment there are only old posts with bits of pieces of code and references to outside links and files. I had to spend quite a bit of time to find a php script that would rotate images in a block for me. Edits and php files in folders - better if an easier setup via a standard block with options.
Would be nice to see a standard block for this as it is a very common feature of websites. Not just for the front page but thats the main one people want to use images to attract people to stay on the site.
Almost all CMSs offer a variety of mods for this - Joomla, Wordpress etc, but not much for SMF and they dont look so good. One portal I think comes with what looks like a sliding front page image banner. Also as an introduction for pages with categories like Joomla K2.
Block with options for:
Folder the files are in.
Type of rotation - refresh or time interval.
Rotation effect (if easy to implement - simple swap, slide, fade etc)
-
I know this is an old topic, but I use this block at my site . How can I center the images ?
Any guidance will be highly appreciated.
-
I use a php script for rotating images every time the page loads. You can find it in many locations on the internet - tiny portal, another smf portal also had an old topic about it.
Images go in a 'FOLDER-NAME' with the rotator.php script.
In the block all you need to do is this:
<p align="center"><img src="http://yourwebsite.com/FOLDER-NAME/rotate.php" alt="OCJ Photo" /></p>
The html alignment tag centers everything.
There are settings that can be changed for the rotator - need to look for that. And there are many others out there you can try.
-
Thanks igirisjin,
Couldnt find the rotator.php ( tiny portal etc.) . Can you pls attach the one you use ?
-
TPortal was a topic about it but if you search online you will find the same one with the script.
Here is my copy but you may need to search online for the settings details.
-
Thanks. Download link is not working at tportal.
-
There is an article on it, and the download available, at marcofolio.net
http://www.marcofolio.net/webdesign/php_random_image_rotation.html
-
Thanks for the info Angelinabelle,
Actually, I need the code here, because without refreshing I need to show several images.
Only problem with this code is to center the images in the block.
Can you help ?
-
The rotator only shows one image at a time.
How did you get it to show two?
What does your block look like now?
-
I dont mean the rotate.php
I want to use the php code at the top of this topic. It does what I want. Only missing part is centering the image. Can you help ?
-
There are several ways to center an image tag.

http://w3schools.com/css/default.asp (http://w3schools.com/css/default.asp)
Here is one way you could do it:

echo '
<img id="slideshow" src="" />
echo '
<img style="text-align:center;" id="slideshow" src="" />
-
Hoping that the solution you've provided will solve my problem, unfortunately no effect.
Cleared cache, refreshed browser. Tried with different browsers .. No :-(
-
You could try surrounding it with <center><img ...... /> </center>
-
Great! worked this time :-)
Thanks alot AngelinaBelle, as always ...
-
Hi, thanks all. The code may be useful, but I cannot understand it. Maybe you can use Kvisoft Image Slideshow Creator to do slideshows. It can also rotate.
-
hi there
i want to add a link in any image .. is this posible ?
thanks in advance
-
Which exact code are you using? And can you elaborate what you want to do? Do you want to add links to the rotating images?
-

;D
work perfect ¡¡
thanks for share and help
:applause:

That's great to hear. You're welcome! :)

I hope I dont get in trouble for posting in this old of a post, but, I had a question. I used this PHP code and inserted it into a simple portal block. Added my pics, and the links to their sites, and all works great!! My question is, and I saw it mentioned above, but no solution for SINANS code. I just want to center my images. I have the portal block on the bottom of my forum, and all pics are aligned left. Will it be hard to add PHP code to center them? I can start a new thread if I need to.
-
jtc442,
Edit the block and look to the bottom right where it has an input titled custom body class, put the following into that input: centertext

Underdog, I appreciate the help! Wow, that was too easy. I am very new to this, but learning. I have never messed with those blocks before. I guess I need to learn more about all of that. Thanks a ton!!
-
I am glad that everybody on this topic is learning and getting their site to do what they want it to do.
Please consider finding some nice online tutorials to make your learning process quicker and more fun.
I have found w3schools.com useful for HTML and CSS, but there are tons more tutorial sites out there.
-
I did search, very extensively. Looked at the sites you posted in post 21 as well. Nothing I tried worked, and with me being a total newbie at this and have just been learning as I go, I ran out of options other than to post here.
Little did I know that all I had to do was add that text to the box that underdog mentioned.
I will read up more on the links you posted and hopefully they will help me in the future. Thank you for your help as well!
(Im actually going to jump on right now and look at that site again)
-
centertext is a common css class native only to SMF. Most SMF custom theme authors use this named class because mods use it for their display attributes. In other cases involving desired display it may be necessary to use direct container style attributes or create custom classes within a theme's css file. The resource that AngelinaBelle provided is very good for such things. I would also like to mention stackoverflow which is another great resource for all types of code.
-
It is confusing and difficult at first, but you'll pick it up.
Getting quick tips from others really does help.
I have worked with CSS a little bit, and I was completely surprised by a quick tip from [SiNaN] recently.
So there is a lot to learn.
Have fun!

I appreciate yalls support!! Thank you!

Hello and welcome to SimplePortal!
Where are those images in the posts, if I may ask? Are those added inside the posts using the [img] tags or attachments?

Hi, I'm new here, I joined to ask some questions about the php script provided at the top of the topic.
Is it customisable like if I wanted to have links to some topics next to the images to refer to the posts they are taken from
would it be feasable and how ?
Thanks in advance.
