Need a menu/tabs and slidshow combined into one

  • Need a menu/tabs and slidshow combined into one

    • Hi, Have you ever seen something like this:
      Slideshow with possibility to add a few lines of description in a semitransparent box (something like Header Rocksprocket slideshow in Ximenia template: demo.rockettheme.com/?template=ximenia )
      A bottom horizontal menu higlighted when corresponding image is displayed. But this menu buttons should be linkable to content, not neccessary to slideshow images.

      [EDIT] In other words, I want to have a menu parent items highlighted when a related image is displayed in the slideshow.

      Even better, if that were tabs highlighted, because I would like to have my website tabbed by type of content (products, business directory, articles, blogs, forum). That would keep entire website integrated. [/EDIT]

      Can any Rockettheme extension do the above ? With Roksprocket I couldn't even get the description displayed and I don't like the image going out beyound the block :(

      I found two close things out in the market but I would really prefer to stick with RT.

      Best regards
      Derek

    • RT doesn't have extension that would allow you to achieve something like this :oops:

    • Thank you Igor, well that maybe some idea - advanced menu with slideshow :-)
      Also, a Tabs extension upgrade to be aplicable not only to a few articles, but to tabularize whole website would be nice. And an accordion side menu....Thats what I am missing now.

      Not to turn a topic into a wishlist, can you please just give me a hint if iusing a slideshow and some menu or even generic custom html modules set in a row to be buttons, plus a piece of custom CSS and maybe a PHP code could do that ? I mean if such a solution is at all possible without spending many hundreds of $$$$. Then I think I could eventually order something like this. Maybe not at the beginning but a bit later.

      Greets,
      Derek

    • I'm not sure I understand exactly your requirements, but you may be able to use a technique similar the the one I used here: www.cprlimited.com/our-work/butlers-cottage

      I used the "Modules Anywhere" extension to insert Rokgallery modules into articles, and then created menu items pointing to those articles (down the left)
