Hey there,

I've just upgraded from smartor photo album to FAP.

The problem i have come across is getting the photo block to scroll images.

I had it working before but had to completly change the block since moving to FAP.

Is there a way to get the random images to scroll again?

Thanks in Advance.

Sorry, you lost me.

Scroll images?

Not in FAP. Is this another mod of some kind?

When i had the basic photo album installed i was able to have scrolling images inside a block on my portal page.

Is there a way to do this with FAP?

Must have been another mod that accomplished this. Was not part of the album.

If you have the code we could probably help to adapt it to FAP.

I'm not familiar with it.....Does anyone know of this?

Topic move to FAP General Discussions And Customizations.

Ok what i ended up doing is creating a marquee tag in the portal_body.tpl file.

It scrolls the pics across the page slightly different than the last one i had but it'll do.

Next question i have now, is there a way to have a single random photo from 1 category in a block?
Example: i want to have a pics from one category randomly change everytime the portal refreshes.

Hello,

I had exactly the same issue when upgrading to FAP.
Here is the scrolling block code that worked with the old Albumin a duplicate thread:

It would be great if someone could adapt it for FAP!:

A scrolling block with recent or random pictures from FAP!!...
It is beyond me I'm afraid though I have tried...
Grateful for any help!

TIA and regards
