Go into System - Design - Banners and select insert and name your new group. Then click on Edit and click on Add Banner and then fill in what it asks (upload the image and put it in place etc) Keep clicking on Add Banner for each image you want to rotate through. Once you have added all the images and input all the information for them be SURE to select save. (View Shown Below)
Once that is all done, go to extensions - options and click on edit at the end of the line that says Banner. If there is no edit there then click on Install and then click on edit. Click add module if there is nothing there and then fill in the information it asks for IE Which image banner group you want to use, what the size of said banner is, where you want the banner to display, in what position, and whether to enable it. Once you are done again be sure to click save before exiting. (View Shown Below)
I put circles around the parts of each page you should pay special attention to since forgetting to set or click on those things will make it so the banners won't work right. Also be sure you name your stuff whatever makes most sense. The pics were taken right from my site so they are using the names I picked etc.
Hope that helps!

ann0314 , that was VERY helpful, thank you!
Now...can you tell me how to SLOW DOWN the slideshow? This looks to be a standard jQuery type slide show so I know there is a variable regarding transition timing somewhere...
Anybody??

Sorry I sure don't I tried to figure out the same thing. I know the banner rotation thing is based on:
Nivo Slider or at least I am fairly certain it is and they do list the variables on that site HERE (about mid way down) that you would need to change but I couldn't seem to find the file those variables were located in
But maybe you'll have better luck then me

About line 67, just change the (as of OpenCart v1.5) these two variables to the value you want:
Save, upload and your done.

In system/design/banners as standard you see a Samsung and an HP banner group. Edit one of these and add another banner to it. Then select that banner group in the slideshow module. Voila!
Just incase anyone is still stuck with this:
You need to go to system/design/banners.
If you wanted one banner with 3 slides being rotated you would do the following:
1) Create a new banner and name it (this is the name of the whole 3 slide rotation)
2)Where you just added a banner image, click 'banner' and add the next slide.
3) Repeat as above.
4) Go to modules and select the slideshow you just created.
Now you'll see a three slide rotating banner.
I hope that helps.

Hi,
Does anyone know how to change the transition effects? I have looked for some sort of admin setting but can't find anything. I would really like to have the images slide in from the side automatiaclly rather than the 'cutting them into bits' effects.
Thanks in advance

TAC, look at my post above. Open up view/javascript/jquery/nivo-slider/jquery.nivo.slider.pack.js
At line 67, change
You'll need to change it to something like:
Not tested that but I think it should do it. Other transitions are specified on the Nivo Slider homepage http://nivo.dev7studios.com/support/jqu ... gin-usage/
At line 67, change
Code: Select all
defaults={effect:'random',slices:15,boxCols:8,boxRows:4,animSpeed:1500,pauseTime:6000,startSlide:0,directionNav:true,directionNavHide:true,controlNav:true,controlNavThumbs:false,controlNavThumbsFromRel:false,controlNavThumbsSearch:'.jpg',controlNavThumbsReplace:'_thumb.jpg',keyboardNav:true,pauseOnHover:true,manualAdvance:false,captionOpacity:0.8,prevText:'Prev',nextText:'Next',beforeChange:function(){},afterChange:function(){},slideshowEnd:function(){},lastSlide:function(){},afterLoad:function(){}}

defaults={effect:'slideInLeft',animSpeed:1500,pauseTime:6000,startSlide:0,directionNav:true,directionNavHide:true,controlNav:true,controlNavThumbs:false,controlNavThumbsFromRel:false,controlNavThumbsSearch:'.jpg',controlNavThumbsReplace:'_thumb.jpg',keyboardNav:true,pauseOnHover:true,manualAdvance:false,captionOpacity:0.8,prevText:'Prev',nextText:'Next',beforeChange:function(){},afterChange:function(){},slideshowEnd:function(){},lastSlide:function(){},afterLoad:function(){}}
Not sure how old this is, but it works fine for me. I just went to banners and added another image to the banner list. The copy isn't exactly descriptive but the design works just fine.
I am new to opencart and am slowly changing the default shop. I have replaced the galaxy banner with one called Dales. I followed the instructions from ann0314 published on 3rd Jul 2011. I works fine except when the page initially loads all 3 images are visible (for about 2 secs) before they start to change. (see www.shaw-tek.com/store) Can anyone please tell me how to correct this. Thank you
