[8wayRun.Com] XenPorta (Module Add-Ons)

Could somebody help me with making a module that transitions through a directory of images and displays them and transitions them with a chosable effect; I need this as a header for my site to display images. Anybody know how to do this?
Thanks.
Moved this :P
 
How would you use <xen: if is on a blank option? I tried it like this:
<xen:if is="{$option.blablabla}"="lalala"><tag></tag></xen:if>
But that didn't work :/
 
Hey folks, I realllllly need some help!

I have tried to make this module stuff, to no avail. I am simply not a coder.
So please, would someone help me out?

I need a module for the homepage, that I can customize with a welcome message or links, or whatever I want in it. etc.

I see this has been asked for a few times, but didn't go anywhere.

Purty please?? I'll beg if I have to.

Actually this is the wrong thread, you want to ask in the main XenPorta thread. This thread is for custom blocks.

But to answer your questions, yes.

To eliminate the "continue reading" link go into your Modules settings, select Recent News and enter 999999 as a value for the recentnews_truncate value.

To remove the avatar you will need to modify the template EWRporta_Block_RecentNews.
Code: 
<div class="messageUserBlock">
                    <div class="avatarHolder">
                        <xen:if is="{$news.attach}">
                            <a href="{xen:link attachments, $news.attach}"><img src="{$news.attach.thumbnailUrl}" alt="{$news.attach.filename}" /></a>
                        <xen:elseif is="{$news.medio}" />
                            <div style="background: url('data/media/{$news.medio.media_id}.jpg') no-repeat; background-size: 100%; -moz-background-size: 100%;">
                                <a href="{xen:link 'full:media/popout', $news.medio}" class="OverlayTrigger"><img src="js/8wayrun/EWRmedio_play.png" style="max-width: 240px;" /></a>
                            </div>
                        <xen:elseif is="{$news.image}" />
                            <a href="{$news.image}"><img src="{$news.image}" alt="{$news.image}" style="max-height: 150px; max-width: 150px;" /></a>
                        <xen:else />
                            <xen:avatar user="$news" size="m" itemprop="photo" />
                        </xen:if>
                    </div>
                </div>

I haven't test it, but pretty sure if you wrap the above code in a comment tag then you will have the look you want.

This doesn't do it. It will still 'steal' the first picture into the avatar spot.. It just won't show it.

You have to edit /library/EWRporta/Block/RecentNews.php
Find
Code: 
$post = $this->getThumb($post);
and replace it with
Code: 
//$post = $this->getThumb($post);

And you also remove the entire <div class="messageUserBlock"> aswell

I need a simple Welcome module for the homepage, that I can customize with a welcome message and links to the register page, etc. And it needs to be visible to unregistered people.

Purty please?? I'll beg if I have to.

Would it be enough that you can 'edit' the welcome message through a template edit? Makes quite a big difference in the amount of work one have to put into making the module for you.

As long as I can edit the contents of the module, whether it's a welcome message, links, or something else, I'm good with that. :)

I guess what I am asking for is a "text" module? Something like what WordPress has. That you can use anywhere on the homepage, and change the contents at any time.

There is a "quote" module. I would think you can change the quote source to your text.

There is also a HTML module where you should be able to easily present any text.

I have not used either module so I can't comment on their user further then what I shared. Both modules are discussed in this thread.

I have something similar on one of my sites - I'll mail you a link to the site so you can see if it's what you want :)
