constructor theme – slideshow configuration
-
Hello,
I’m trying to configure the slideshow on the constructor theme, but I’m new at this so having some problems.
in order for the slideshow on this theme to work, I had to upload and install the imagerotator.swf file into my webFTP.
I THINK i did it correctly (or semi-correctly) because the images in the slideshow are finally showing, but they are all a little messed up.
they are all stretched out and to one side, and the thumbnail images are not showing at all.
I think that’s because i installed the rotator wrong, or maybe didn’t finish installing it.
So, here are the instructions on how to install it:
https://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-image-rotator/1 – well, i did unzip the imagerotator file and put the folder into the ftp directory which i pasted above. i also logged into wordpress as the admin and created a gallery of random images. so after that the slideshow was at least sliding. (am i missing a step here maybe?)
2 – ok, for this one I have no clue what they’re saying. how do i edit the xml file? and what are track blocks? do i have to go back to the webFTP and add files there, can’t i just upload more jpegs into the gallery section of wordpress?…here i’m already totally lost.
3 – and this one — WHERE is my html page exactly? and is that the only code that i have to imbed? and what about the different directories – didn’t i create the right directory in step #1?…
4 – THEN they get to the FLASHVARS …. and, now, here i’m wondering if maybe i should just forget about ALL the previous steps and just concentrate on figuring out the flashvars, since apparently they are the ones in charge of how the slideshow displays everything?…
Here’s what my site looks like now (totally random photos are displayed):
