Use feature on diff template, how difficult?

  • Use feature on diff template, how difficult?

    Posted 13 years 1 month ago
    • I'm wondering how difficult, or even possible, would it be to use the Panacea Background Rotator with the Juxta template?

      I really hope to use the Juxta template, but I'd also like to add a rotator like Panacea on the main page. Is this possible for a non-expert? If so, can you point me in the right direction to find info?

    • I had developed a series of mods to allow the Rotator to work on other templates than Panacea.
      They are large and complex and require hacking the templates index.php file.

      There is a much better method now and that is RokGallery, which is a Rockettheme module that you install and with a little work it's a dead ringer for the Panacea Rotator.

      Check out this section Advanced Topics - Showcase Panacea Rotator looking layout of the RokGallery Tutorial.

    • Thanks for the reply and for pointing me in the right direction DanG. I knew RokGallery was very impressive, but it did not occur to me to use it as a slideshow / showcase.

      Is it possible to use RokGallery in two different ways on the same site, as a front page header slideshow AND as a regular Gallery page?

      Actually you have three layout options that can be used concurrently on your sites:
      1. Slideshow
      2. Showcase
      3. Grid
