Free extensions for Joomla!

hi,
ok i have migrated my old zoom gallery from a J1.0.15 site to a J1.5.7 with Zoom Native. All works well!!! thankyou

a few questions:-
1. now with lightbox integrated (aweswome!!) how do you have the slideshow work? i have slideshow set to yes but cant see any play buttons to start slideshow.

2. i am logged in as a user but when set to have lightbox on, i dont think registered users can now post comments. where do they do that if lightbox is on? is it possible?

thats all for now. if i come across any more ill post here.

The slideshow, comments and rating features were designed to work only with the "not pop-up" layout in ZMG, In the new version I'm working on, I have changed this for some cases, introducing a new slideshow that can be started in the gallery view.

You are not the only one who has asked me about this, I don't know how to integrate the lightbox with the comments, do you have any suggestion in how/where should the comments we showed? Any idea would be very welcome.

thanks

I cant figure out the best way to do what I want here so I am looking for some suggestions please.

I am creating a portfolio page with a views grid showing a title, body text and image in each cell. I have uploaded 6 screenshot images for each site which I am adding to my portfolio page. However it doesn't seem like you can create a slideshow in views to just show images from 1 cck node.

So say ive got a cck called portfolio which is a title, body and 6 images of the same field. I want a page which will slideshow just these images, but instead it goes through the first image of each cck.

Another way I thought I could do this is using lightbox, however I would need it to browse again through the images of the node rather than the first image of each cck entry.

I would ideally love to achieve this.

A views grid of slideshows for each node, so the user could click through each image and stay on the grid page, they could then click on the image for a hi-res lightbox version. Is this possible?
