What Block Can do The Following?

Hi guys,

Is there an extension that can do the following.

I want to have a scrolling image and text carousel, which has the image at the TOP of the tiem, with TEXT underneath, then a have button underneath the text - button in the item at the bottom.

I want this Extension - to show 3-4 item tiles on the screen, that then auto plays, moving each item accross the page... so for example I may have 10 items, and once you roll to that BLOCK, it starts moving through the 10... only showing a set number of items (2,3 or 4 tiles) only at a time.

I can not seem to find an extension that does this and it is a very common extensing on other platforms?

Cheers.

Michael

Hi Ziaul,

Thank you... I did try this... but can you please explain how the 'carusel' would work in the articles addon, as I can not set this.

For example if I have 8 articles, and the display is set to 4 across the page, where do I find the arrows, so it will move/slide through the articles on an autoplay feature?

If you look at the image I sent you as the example you will see arrows on each end, to the user can scroll through the different articles.

Is it the articles scroller addon, you meant for me to use?

Cheers, Syco

If you want to use the carousel feature, you can do so with the Articles Scroller addon.

  1. Set the style to Carousel in the addon settings: Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/z4GeixL8y8u6
  2. Then follow the documentation here for detailed instructions: Articles Scroller – News Carousel: https://www.joomshaper.com/documentation/sp-page-builder/articles-scroller#span-style-font-weight-400-news-carousel-span

Thanks.

You may customize it based on your needs by using custom css.

Plus, the TITLE roll over takes you to the article... but I want it to go to an outside URL... and also add a button at the button (Learn more) just like the image I showed you that point to an external URL?

... wasted a day trying to custom code this...

Seems mad you can not have an option to select an External Link... and remove the TITLES link to the article...

Also crazy there is not a simple ADDON, that does allow you to have a TEXT/IMAGE carousel... that allows a simple button the point to a SPPB Page or external link...

grrr....

Thanks for you help!

Here's a link to the example... https://www.nrmaparksandresorts.com.au/cairns/

scroll down the page to the - "Explore locally" section... to see what I mean and let me know your thoughts?

In that case, please create an override for this addon and implement it based on your requirements.

You maye hire as developer for this or you can do it by your won.

Thanks for your understanding.

I'll work something out... but I suggest looking at creating a simple ADDON - image/text/button carousel... with external link capabilities / or page links / custom selectable.

Would be very useful!

Cheers,

Syco
