Mod Featured Items Slideshow

mod_featured_slideshow3.jpg

This module can display images from your Joomla! articles as a slideshow, with a caption taken from the text, and a link to the articles.

Version 2 now includes a completely new HTML 5 layout, supporting a variety of image transitions.

It has some really handy features:-

  • The module is smart, it can find articles with images automatically. You can just select a category, and it will find the articles and the images in them, without you needing to add anything to the articles themselves;
  • You can choose the number of articles, plus from a variety of orderings, including title order, most recently modified or created, number of hits, or random;
  • Alternatively, you can select specific articles only to display in the slideshow;
  • There is a large range of customizable features, including whether or not to display the thumbnails, the orientation of the thumbnails (horizontal or vertical), the type of scroller used (click or mouseover), plus whether to auto-start the show on page loading;
  • The module is search engine friendly, because the article caption content and the links are rendered on the page as ordinary html, the slideshow being constructed from this content, hence Google will have no problem crawling the article links.
  • You can have as many instances of the slideshow module on the page as you want, with separate parameters for each.

The module supports Mighty Extensions Resources as well as the Joomla Core Content articles. For Mighty Extensions Resources it supports:-

  • images embedded in an html field
  • the image field plugin
  • the picture field plugin

***News****

  • improved image resizing now allows you to specify the exact width and height of each image displayed.

It does include the option to show articles by the currently profiled user.

I am not quite sure what value a cache would be, do you mean to cache the articles? Or the images?

Well, I may look at that. But the size of the scripts as they stand is only 15K, which is not huge, though it should be possible to get that down a bit. But it is not going to make much difference compared to the size of the images downloaded.

It is not slow in loading. Having more articles is not really going to make much difference, because they are all read from the database in one operation. If you have a lot of big images that will slow things down, because they all have to be loaded. But that can be solved by optimizing your images.
