[Module] MGC Home Products Carousel

[mtor 5]

As the currently available Carousel was not fitting our needs we have developped a new Carousel. I am releasing it here so that everyone could benefit of it !

This Carousel is based on jQuery.

Features

This Carousel is highly configurable through the following options :
- Automatic scroll (Can be disabled, configurable duration)
- Number of products in the Carousel
- Number of products in the visible part of the Carousel
- Number of products scrolled by automatic scroll or button
- Image type used (selection between your shop images type)
- Display or not Product's name
- Display or not Product's price
- Select the categories from which not to retrieve the products
- Select Products order (same as homefeatured module)

This could be used as a featured Carousel if you exclude all categories except the home one !

Install

Just upload the content of the zip in your modules directory. Then go to your modules management page, install the module and configure it.

Enjoy !!

-------------------------------

Le Carousel disponible ne nous convenant pas, nous avons décidé d'en développer un nouveau. Je le release donc ici afin que tout le monde puisse en profiter !

Ce Carousel est basé sur jQuery.

Fonctionnalités

Ce Carousel est complêtement configurable grâce aux options suivantes :
- Scroll automatique (Peut-être désactivé, intervalle de scroll réglable)
- Nombre de produits dans le Carousel
- Nombre de produits affichés dans la partie visible du Carousel
- Type d'images à utiliser (sélection parmis les types disponible dans votre boutique)
- Afficher ou non le nom du produit
- Afficher ou non le prix du produit
- Sélectionner les catégories à exclure pour la récupération des produits
- Sélectionner l'ordre des produits (identique au module homefeatured)

Il est possible d'utiliser ce module comme un module featured Carousel en excluant toutes les catégories à l'exception de l'accueil !

Installation

Uploadez le contenu du zip dans votre dossier modules. Allez ensuite dans le gestionnaire de modules et installe le. Il ne vous restera plus qu'à le configurer

Enjoy !!

-------------------------------

Todo list :
- Circular Carousel / Carousel circulaire
- Possibility to configure the speed / Possiblité de sélectionner la vitesse
- Add positioning in header / Ajouter le positionnement dans le header

Edit the css file located in the modules/homecarousel/jcarousel/skins/tango/skins.css file

[jolvil 78]

great module, 2 little things:

Box round corners only with FF2 but not with IE7 or Chrome.

Scrolling not starting again after clicking on arow.


--------------------------------------------------------


to start again on I just changed 0 to 1 in homecarousel.js

    carousel.buttonNext.bind('click', function() {
       carousel.startAuto(1);
   });

   carousel.buttonPrev.bind('click', function() {
       carousel.startAuto(1);
   });

But a time pause could be better before starting again


------------------------------------------------------------

to set of round corners on FF:

erase

 -moz-border-radius: 10px;

in homecarousel/jcarousel/skins/tango/skins.css file

[SonnyCooL 0]

Edit the css file located in the modules/homecarousel/jcarousel/skins/tango/skins.css file

thanks bro, got it with the size i want
but when i put this module in first or second place (homecontent), my right column and features product turn out below left column ...

[myname 5]

hi... very beautiful module!

I have two questions:
1) as me I place to create a space among the block "home featured" and the block "Homa product carousel?" ( img 1)
2) how I can center the block "Home product carousel?" (img 2)

Thanks

[mtor 5]

Hi,

You have to play around with the css file as stated previously.

I assume you already did as per your second screenshot.

I presume your style is fixed width so play around with the margin-left that should do it.

[myname 5]

Thanks, but

which cms to center the block? in the image 2 have lengthened only the block, however don't I know where I can insert a function to center the block?

and for the image 1? ... how can I detach (to set a space among the 2) the block "homefeatured" from your block?

[Travis 0]

Good, but

it shows products which are currently disabled.

EDIT: Also duplicates same item sometimes, even next to each other.

[mtor 5]

@myname :
For the space, add a margin-top : value px; (replace value by the space you want) in :

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container {
   -moz-border-radius: 10px;
   background: #FFFFFF;
   border: 1px solid #346F97;
}

And this is also in this bit of code that you must add modification of the width as well as centering.

@Travis :
Ok this should now be fixed. Download the zip file again and just replace the homecarousel.php file from the homecarousel directory

[Travis 0]

Fantastic fix, very happy. Will tell if I find anymore issues. But i like it so far.

So much better then the other carousel offered.

Many Thanks

[Travis 0]

Been looking at it and thinking, maybe instead of wizzing back to the start when it reaches the end, it has a never ending loop so when it gets to the the end it continues flicking (changing product) in the same direction (no wizzing right back to where it began), instead the next product is the first product again. Saves the customer the headache as they watch it wizz back to the start.

Sorry for my bad explanation. I hope someone understands.

[jolvil 78]

To make animation a litle slower I added in homecarousel.js, it works:

    animation: 'slow',

in

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
   jQuery('#mycarousel').jcarousel({
       auto: carousel_autoplay,
       wrap: 'last',
       visible: carousel_items_visible,
       scroll: carousel_scroll,
   animation: 'slow',
       initCallback: mycarousel_initCallback

but I tried to add wrap: 'first', or wrap: 'circular', to have a circular carousel but it doesn't work

How to set a circular caroussel?

[mtor 5]

About the Carousel it's a bit more complicated to implement, the js library doesn't support it by default.

I will wokr on it and release a new version with the option to set the Carousel as circular or not as well as a speed option.

[Travis 0]

Thank you.

[jolvil 78]

I installed the module on my shop but I have a problem

The modules displays desactived products and desactived categories , it could be better to choose the categories to be displayed instead categories to be not displayed.

So I can't use it

[mtor 5]

For the unactive products, you have to download the latest zip, the first contained an error.

You can select from the module options which category not to show so I think it's ok no ?

[rbarrick 1]

Is there an easy way to change the color of the arrows or do you have to edit the image in the tango folder?

Thanks

[mtor 5]

Well only way is to change the image

petit souci avec votre module
erreur à la ligne 331 \modules\homecarousel\homecarousel.php on line 331

je suis sous la version 1.2.0.1

[mandrake 11]

Bonjour,

J'ai moi aussi un problème avec votre module, il "plante" ma page d'accueil, celle-ci se fige et bloque tout mon pc, je ne peux qu'actionner control +alt +supp pour obliger IE7 à fermer...
Dommage , il a l'air pas mal ...

Merci pour votre réponse.

Cordialement,

Mandrake.

[jolvil 78]

Ok works fine

display activated products on desactivated categories, so just hav to desactivate products

a little mistake in BO:

Nomnbre de produits du décalage

[jolvil 78]

Chez moi il fonctionne tres bien avec la V1.1 finale Prestashop ( voir mon site )

[myname 5]

Thanks mtor... you are very kind.

I have followed your suggestion and the block is now detached by homefeatured.
I don't succeed in understanding what I must add and where I must add (in..\homecarousel\jcarousel\skins\tango\skin.css) the code to center the block "home product Carousel."
Could you help to understand me what I must do for being able to center him/it? If I decrease the width of the block it goes to the left everything... then I must understand whether to intervene for being able to center him.

Thanks

[mandrake 11]

Bonjour Jolvil,

Je vois effectivement qu'il fonctionne chez toi, mais ton site n'a pas l'air d'être créé sous prestashop ou alors tu changé tout le code, ceci explique peut-être cela...
Au passage, le lien pour aller sur ton site dans ton profil est erroné. Sinon très sympathique ton site.
Bonne journée,

Cordialement,

Mandrake.

Yuck.

I choose medium image type and as you can see in the attached image, it looks very nice in Chrome. However IE is not plesent. Please tell me how to change IE so it looks like chrome?

Thanks.

Mon site est bien en V1.1 simplement adapté, quelques modifs en css et tpl mais pas plus.

[myname 5]

Does someone know which code I must add (in \homecarousel\jcarousel\skins\tango\skin.css) so that themodule "home product carousel" both to the center and not to the left as it is of defoult?

[mandrake 11]

Bonsoir Jolvil,

Je comprends mieux maintenant...Je vois que tu maîtrises bien l'outil...
Mais j'ai réellement un soucis avec ce module, peut-être à cause du javascript? Je suis sous IE7.
Je vais tenter d'approfondir la chose...

Bonne soirée,

Cordialement,

La ligne 331 paraît pourtant ok. Je suis possesseur de Mac donc peut-être un problème de fichier.

Pouvez-vous ouvrir le fichier et copier ici la ligne 331 ?

I think it's a question of font so just a matter of CSS tweaking to fit your own needs

[mtor 5]

Does someone know which code I must add (in \homecarousel\jcarousel\skins\tango\skin.css) so that themodule "home product carousel" both to the center and not to the left as it is of defoult?

Well in the same style parameter I stated above you have to play around with the margin css attribute.

[jolvil 78]

I can't set name size display on Explorer with skin.css.

it's possible to set font-size with FF2 or Chrome but not with Explorer.

That's why the result is different and not so nice with explorer.

I can change price font-size display on Explorer but not name font-size.

do you have an idea?

---------------------------------------------------

I found a solution!

just take of

in homecarousel.tpl

change

{$product.name|escape:htmlall:'UTF-8'|truncate:45}    

to

{$product.name|escape:htmlall:'UTF-8'|truncate:45}

[myname 5]

Thanks...
but me thing I must add, and where must I add, to the code (in \homecarousel\jcarousel\skins\tango\skin.css) so that the module (Home Product Carousel) results in central (and not to the left) position?

[reclipse3 8]

If you want to REALLY improve this mod, make it so that only logged in registered customers see a link beneath each product (on the product's page), next to the Send to friend link called, "Product Code". When they click it, they'll be able to copy/paste the code for that product anywhere they want (e.g. their own website(s), myspace page, etc.).

And then (important part), allow a referral/rewards program - similar to the existing rewards/referral program - to be integrated and configurable (commission, etc.) where it gives each customer who brought in a new customer from advertising on their myspace page or wherever, reward points, to be used as a voucher in your store (connected to the current voucher system).

This would of course give people a BIG incentive to promote your store and make money doing so, all while increasing your sales!

If you do this mod, people would pay for it, easily.

How does that relate to the carousel?

[Travis 0]

How can we get this carousel to show on the top of every page, just below the logo.

[reclipse3 8]

I guess you're right, it doesn't directly relate to it. I should've directed this post to Prestashop instead. I was inspired and posted before thinking!

Hopefully I've in turn inspired modders to create this mod anyway!

That's ok.

[jolvil 78]

This module is wonderfull but it could be more "ready to use" with Prestashop thème.

So I suggest to set /homecarousel/jcarousel/skins/tango/skins.css file:

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-horizontal {
   width: 475px;  /* good width with prestashop theme */
   padding: 5px 40px;
   margin: 10px 0;    /* or margin: 10px auto; */
}

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-vertical {
   width: 75px;
   padding: 40px 20px;
}

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-clip-horizontal {
   width:  473px;
   height: auto;
}

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-item {
   width: 129px;
   height: auto;
   text-align: center;
   font-size: 1em;   /* can be set wthout  in homecarousel.tpl  */
}

take of in css -moz-border-radius: 10px; (only used by FF and Netscape)

take of css code about vertical (not used)

take of image button about vertical (not used)

take of ie7 skin (not used)

take of changelog.html, index.html, style.css not necessary inside the module, beside ok

take of thickbox folder (not used)

take of

in homecarousel.tpl (can't be resize with css and Explorer)

[reclipse3 8]

Thanks for the CSS help! You're right, this is what the original settings should be.

This module is wonderfull but it could be more "ready to use" with Prestashop thème.

So I suggest to set skin.css:

le module est super mais pas tout à fait pret à l'emploi , il faut modifier un peu le css, la largeur du conteneur car il est trop large pour le theme par defaut, ajouter des margin, regarde mon post sur les modifs à faire

Bonjour jolvil,

Oui effectivement et en plus j'avais l'ancien fichier css dans le répertoire "tango" le css était erroné car il était marqué .jcarousel-skin-IE7.

Il faudrait que mtor mette un numéro de release à ces modules chaque fois qu'il apporte une modif.

[jolvil 78]

Ce qui est amusant c'est que mtor utilise Magento sur son site.
Merci d'autant plus pour cette contribution a Prestashop.

[mtor 5]

@jolvil :
Je prendrais les suggestions de changements de CSS en compte.

Si ma boutique est actuellement sous Magento c'est parce que je suis en train de préparer la nouvelle version avec prestashop ;-) Le développement du Carousel n'était pas si bénévole que çà hehe !

[jolvil 78]

Ta boutique a l'air tres bien sous magento, par curiosité pourquoi choisis tu de migrer vers Prestashop?

[mtor 5]

A cause de la lourdeur de Magento.

Magento a tendance à être lent et développer un module sous Magento relève du parcours du combattant. Prestashop apporte beaucoup plus de souplesse.

[jolvil 78]

You're welcome ! :-)

Excellent. I have cut the code down to exactly this. Now how do I make it look better in IE? Help much appriciated.

[mtor 5]

Well normally with jolvil tweak you should have it should look good too in IE no ?

[Presta-TR 9]

how is the horizontal smalling ?? please help me

i need horizantal and vertical smalling

[mtor 5]

For the horizontal, modify this :

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-horizontal {
   width: 475px;  /* good width with prestashop theme */
   padding: 5px 40px;
   margin: 10px 0;    /* or margin: 10px auto; */
}

For the vertical one, select a smaller image size through the back office options

[ecat53 0]

In my themes the module is over the FEATURED MODULE.
How can I change it?

[mtor 5]

Like for any modules

Try using the position of the module from the modules manager of the back office.

[ecat53 0]

If I move on top there are no problems but if I move at the bottom it remain over the FEATURED PRODUCTS.
Besaides it has an huge size that I can't change.

look here

This module is great but how do I make it a little smaller as it goes over my checkout side box and does not fit in the middle of the page?

[jolvil 78]

mtor

You should change css setting in archive.

If not you will have many people asking you how to have a smaller caroussel.

[Adds 1]

This module is great but how do I make it a little smaller as it goes over my checkout side box and does not fit in the middle of the page?

OK I had a little play with this and you have to change the following code:

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-horizontal {
   width: 605px;
   padding: 5px 40px;

To a chosen size code:

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-horizontal {
   width: 470px;
   padding: 5px 40px;

Still working on how to change the size so the images all show in the box. If anyone else can help that would be appreciated.

[Adds 1]

I just cant work out how to get all the products to display within the arrows can anyone help with this at all?
What code do I need to change?

[Adds 1]

I think the only way to resolve this is to change the size of the theme template to make it wider? Anyone know how to do that?

[Julianna 0]

Hi. I tried using this module, but not seeing any products??

Here is what I see:

No products for carousel


How do I get my products to show?

Just looked at your website, maybe it doesn't work with v1.0, cause i think your running v1.0

Then I guess that's it..but is there a way I can make it work with this version??

Especially since everything else worked fine..

Thanks for your help.

[Merchant 1]

Hi, Julianna,

Can you tell me all the settings?
Do you have a catagory without products?

[Adds 1]

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me what i need to change to move the arrows and the images within the middle of my site, as you can see the text of the product goes over the cart area and the arrow on the right is over the product?

How can I fix this?

Thanks.

[Travis 0]

Edit the css file located in modules/homecarousel/jcarousel/skins/tango/skins.css May fix the problem.

[customer 0]

I just edited the container-horizontal width to 475 and it didn't change at all. What gets so frustrating is that every time you change it, you have to make a .tar file and upload it again. I've played with it three times now. Does anyone know exactly what I should be fixing in the skins.css file?

Sorry to bug. I just can't read anymore.

[Julianna 0]

Ok...here are the settings the homecarousel is set to in my admin...

Autoplay Carousel yes

Number if products in carousel 20

Number of product visible 10

Number of product to scroll by 5

Select Carousel image type large 300x300

Display Product name yes

Display Price no

Choice of sort Alphabetical


Those are the settings..strange how it does not work right?
Especially it is installed and saying there are no products..

Oh, and I don't think there are any categories without products..
although I have one cat. disabled..
Does this have anything to do with it?? I wouldn't think so especially
that I chose to not display from that cat..

Any help??

Thanks,
Julianna

Ok..if I cannot get that carousel to work..then anyone know how to get
this flash player to work as shown on this site??

I thought that would look better on my site anyway.. ;-)


Can someone help on how to get this? Is it a module? Or just some
script to install in the editorial??

Please help..

Thanks,

Julianna

if you want to display 10 pictures 300pixels width, you need 3000 pixels so it's too much, choose a littles picture ans less pictures

I painfully now read the whole post. I hate to bitch especially being free but, the same question is being asked over and over. How do I center the carousel. Why not just fix the zip?????????????????????????? I hardly have any technical skills but I've had to learn some since getting PrestaShop.

Sorry to bitch. It just seems to make sense to just fix the zip and save everyone the heartache.

It's free but you have to put your hands inside, a good way to learn more... :coolsmirk:

Ok, sorry.


I'm just frustrated. I got it working but it took me a long time.

What did you do to get it to work mate, can you share what you did with the rest of the members, I would appreciate what you did so I can fix mine as well.

Fixing the width of the Carousel module
>Edit the css file located in the modules/homecarousel/jcarousel/skins/tango/skins.css file
>In the CSS file, in .jcarousel-container-horizontal, add the script below as per Mtor's advice and make sure you put in those little squares with the right spacing between them(just copy and paste in order to get the identical square):




margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;

This module is wonderfull but it could be more “ready to use” with Prestashop thème.
So I suggest to set skin.css:

Edit skin.css like below;



.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-horizontal {
width: 470px;
padding: 5px 40px;
margin: 10px 0;
}

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-vertical {
width: 75px;
padding: 40px 20px;
}

.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-clip-horizontal {
width: 468px;
height: auto;
}
.jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-item {
width: 129px;
height: auto;
text-align: center;


>Don’t forget to compress it into a .tar file and strip outside folders except the one before the “goods” and set to 777 or what is there for other modules.

hello, thank you for your beautiful form. I just wanted to get a question:
Why MGC Home Products Carousel is seen differently in 3 browser I use?
1) Firefox (ok)
2) Internet Explorer 7(ok)
3) Google Chrome (error display)

You can solve the problem for the display of your block in Google Chrome?

Thank you
