Hi,

I have installed Featured Item Carousel and all works fine until I tried to copy the module and placed the copy to other module position. There are problem when I have 2 position module.

1. The color can not be set independently.

Here is the detail: Let say, I have first module on "Left" position and second module on "bottom" position. When I set the color of first module to silver and the second module to blue, then both module will be blue.
They are not independent each others.

2. View Button also can not be set independently.

And it seems some other parameter have the same problem.

Please need your help..

It is true that you cannot set the colours independently, it is really a feature rather than a bug, we don't plan to change this behaviour. The reason is that it is not very often that it will be necessary to set the colours independently, and to have that as a feature would require that all the styling information for the carousel module be set through programming, rather than simply by using css style sheets. We think it is better to have the styles set through style sheets, it is much easier then for customers to edit the styles as they wish.

If you want to have different colours for the modules you will need to edit the css for this. You will need to set a module class suffix in the module parameters for one of your modules, for example set it to ')custom'

Then set the colour for each module to the same value, you will then need to edit the style sheet for that colour, which is in the folder css/colors. Select all the styles, copy and paste them so that you have duplicated them all.

For the second set of styles, add in the extra selector

div.featureditemscarousel_custom, so for example

div.featureditemscarousel_pane.scrollpane div.carousel_outer{ background-color:#ffffff; }

becomes

div.featureditemscarousel_custom div.featureditemscarousel_pane.scrollpane div.carousel_outer{ background-color:#ffffff; }

You can then edit the colour properties for these styles as you wish.

Sorry if this seems rather involved, it is really down to the limitations of using css, but usually this is an advantage as it keeps things simple.

In answer to your second question, can you say which web browser you are using? We have not found any problem with the buttons.

Hi,

Thanks for the explanation regarding the color. I will try it and will let you know the result.

And regarding to my 2nd question, I have tried it on Firefox, IE8 and Chrome. All give me the same result.

If I have 2 module positions, then I have to set all show button parameter to "NO" to hide the button.

What if I want one module has the button and not for the other?

Please help..

Regards
