    This is what I am looking for to display sponsor modules that scroll across the page that are linked to their websites. The only feature it is missing that I need is to load the images in Random order on page load/refresh. Any chance of adding that feature?

    Great Module, Thanks – However, I do not seem to be able to get the “Image link” to work. I tried with a relative URL, then a full url with “http”. The URL is saved on the module page, but doesn’t seem to work on the frontend, it just give add a # to the url of the page I am on :(

    • jenz says:

      Hi MGB,
      it seems there’s a little bit code being left out.
      You could manually insert your URL in the default.php file located in
      include your link in line 44. By default the value is “#”.

      I tried this and worked as temporary solution.

    • jenz says:

      a more accurate way is to find line 36, replace the line with this:

      @$Ihrss_link = “$slideshow_link”;

    Really nice module – THANK YOU SO MUCH – but the linking doesn’t seem to be working for me… Is that a known problem. Would be really nice to choose to open in blank page target=”_blank”

    Thanks in advance,
    Arna :) :) :)

  11. Hello,

    I like your module very much, but on my frontpage it shows no pictures. On the frontpage there is an article, containing an google map and a photo-slideshow running on banner2.
    How can i get this module to show the pictures?

    Regards,

    how to make a hyperlink to each image of Horizontal scrolling slideshow.
    Thank you

  23. Giuseppe says:

    Hi,
    I installed Horizontal scrolling slideshow but now I see, at the bottom of my local site, the horizontal scroll bar.
    WHY??? :(

    Giuseppe

  24. Giuseppe says:

    The position is breadcrumb

  25. Giuseppe says:

    with 66 photos works fine, without scroll bar.
    with 67 and others photos appear scroll bar :(

  26. mario says:

    Why everyone avoid to give an explanation on how do we make a hyperlink to each image? This question is asked even in Spanish.

    Thanks

  27. pixillo says:

    Great tool! But how can i set a hyperlink to each photo?

  28. Hfquei says:

    It seems like there’s no response on how to add links to each image. I point out that people have been asking this for months but there’s no answer. Initially it seems like a very promising extension, but it turned into disappointment.

  29. edwin says:

    how do I link each picture? on top it says
    Hyperlink option to each images.
    how do I do that? there is only one field for one link in the admin secction

  30. cat says:

    I am actually happy to glance at this webpage posts which carries tons of useful data, thanks for providing these statistics.

  31. dogs says:

    Your method of explaining all in this post is really fastidious, all be able to easily be aware of it, Thanks a lot.

  32. There are newscreditable times in this article, but I do not know if I see them complete in the heart of the city. There is unscheduledordinary legality, but look at it before I pick heavenward point. Good article, thanks and we want more! Add as FeedBurner.

  33. Thanks for your strategies. One thing we’ve noticed is the fact that banks plus financial institutions know the dimensions and spending habits of consumers and also understand that a lot of people max out their own credit cards around the holidays. They correctly take advantage of this kind of fact and commence flooding a person’s inbox in addition to snail-mail box having hundreds of no-interest APR card offers shortly when the holiday season finishes. Knowing that if you are like 98% in the American open public, you’ll soar at the chance to consolidate card debt and move balances for 0 interest rate credit cards.

  34. Excellent submit and straight on the point. I’m not convinced if this really is basically the best place to ask but do you people have any ideas on where to employ some professional writers? Thank you in advance

  35. knut says:

    That’s exactly what I was looking for.

    But there are a few small problems.
    It would be nice if for each image a link can be specified.

    Furthermore, in FF the scrolling increase.
    In IE there is a gap between the images.

    How can I change it?

    Thanks

  36. I’m really curious as to wherever this author realized to publish. This writing is incredibly remarkable and gripping. I hope this writer post much more informative articles a great deal like this one. They may be utterly fantastic.

  37. Branko says:

    Hi, great work.
    I am interested if there is a way to edit code of the module so it would slide images only once and when last one shows up, they all stay static – they wouldn’t scroll any more?
    thanks

  38. I like the module, but how can I centre it on a page. At the moment it’s left justified.

  39. Hell says:

    Nice module, but the hyperlink doesn’t work, even the default one.. it simply adds a # to the url.

    Using Joomla 2.5.4
