This module is a simple config recipe that simply adds and updates config on your site to implement a simple slideshow using the Flexslider module and Flexslider views.
We have also added an install file to add some sample content. Please install Slideshow Sample Content module for this.
This recipe is still under development, but suitable for testing and feedback. We appreciate your ideas and input.
This recipe creates
- A Slideshow content type
- A view using Flexslider and Flexslider Views module to display Slideshows. For the slideshow images also added an image style.
- A Flexslider configuration file for this slideshow.
- Three sample slideshow content
- Added some CSS to look nice using CSS Injector module.
While some users may be happy with the configuration of this Slideshow feature exactly as defined in the recipe. We expect that most users will use this recipe as a starting point and customize it to meet their unique needs.
Requires BackdropCMS 1.20 or greater.
This recipe is currently configured to use the Flexslider module to display the slideshow. You will need to enable and configure the Flexslider and Flexslider Views module to benefit from that formatting.
-
This recipe can be found in the Recipes package on the modules page (admin/modules/list).
-
Install this like any other module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions at https://backdropcms.org/guide/modules.
-
Disabling and uninstalling this module will not delete any of the configuration that this module provides, but will disable any CSS files that came with the recipe.
-
Add a couple of "Slideshow" nodes to the site.
-
By default Slideshow block is added on the Home layout on the top region, please place it correctly for your use case.
NOTE: In most cases you will need to customize your layout or css to get the slideshow to span the entire width of the screen. Try using this block in the Top region, when using Basis as your theme to see a full width version of slideshow.
It is not currently possible to uninstall or upgrade this recipe. If you no longer wish to keep this functionality, you will need to remove the items added by the recipe manually.
