Automate Slideshow (2.93) 
Reminder: Always back up your database and files if you make any system changes.
Note: While we cannot assist with modifications as part of our free support services, many customizations make it into our future releases, so we recommend checking the change log. If you need help adding a modification to a web site, we have paid customization services available.
To automate the slideshow or slideshow gallery on the detail item page (e.g. http://website/item_#/itemname.php orhttp://website/catalog.php?item=#), use the following modification:
-
Open the products_detail.php file in the /enc/ folder.
-
Add the following code:
// START AUTOMATE SLIDESHOW GALLERY MOD $automate_milliseconds = 5000; $automate_slideshow = <<<END <script> $(document).ready(function() { function startSlideshow() { var prodid = $varitemid; var clickyid = $('#sb_slideshowzoom' + prodid + ' .active').attr('id'); var clickpos = parseInt(clickyid.replace('sb-thumbimg-' + prodid + '-', '')); var zimgcount = $('#sb_slideshowzoom' + prodid + ' img').length; var useid = (clickpos >= zimgcount) ? 1 : clickpos+1; /* SWITCH IMAGES */ $('#sb_slideshowzoom' + prodid + ' .sb-slideshow').removeClass('active'); var imgsrc = $('#sb-thumbimg-' + prodid + '-' + useid).data('image'); $('#sb-thumbimg-' + prodid + '-' + useid).addClass('active'); $('#dataimg' + prodid).attr('src', imgsrc).stop(true,true).hide().fadeIn(); /* ZOOM? */ if ($('#dataimg' + prodid).data('zoom-image') && !isidevice()) { var dataZoomImg = $('#dataimg' + prodid); $('.zoomContainer').remove(); dataZoomImg.removeData('elevateZoom'); dataZoomImg.attr('src', $('#sb-thumbimg-' + prodid + '-' + useid).data('image')); dataZoomImg.data('zoom-image', $('#sb-thumbimg-' + prodid + '-' + useid).data('zoom-image')); dataZoomImg.elevateZoom(zoomParams); } e.preventDefault(); } timer = setInterval(startSlideshow, $automate_milliseconds); $('.sb_sliders').hover(function() { clearInterval(timer); }, function() { timer = setInterval(startSlideshow, $automate_milliseconds); }); }); </script> END; // END AUTOMATE SLIDESHOW GALLERY MODjust above the code:
// LABEL UNDER IMAGE
-
If desired, change 5000 to the number of milliseconds that will show before going to the next slide. (Hint: 1000 milliseconds = 1 second, so the default is 5 seconds)
