Hi, I am using the slideshow layout on my website.
www.rpsb.us/ranay - I am using your boost template.

I am setting the site up to move to one of my schools, but i do not allow the web person to add modules or move them, they basically just post articles and slides.

I was wondering is there a way to add a article to the "intro text" part of that photo so they could create the articles to go with the slides instead of having to give them access to edit the module.

I am hopefully going to set the show up where it just pulls slides from a folder.
- see the picture below as to where I want the article to show up and once again here is my non production website (see red square)
and here is website www.rpsb.us/ranay as always don't fall over in laughter :-) at my "abilities" but yall do make it much easier even for us who know less (thank you)

Hi There

Can you not select content to load by category? - so any new article is automatically published

and use the sort order to publish the most recent article? - so over time articles drop off the slideshow

With the slideshow are you connecting it to content?

sorry got caught up in running from a hurricane :-) I am using the gallery one because I wanted the slideshow as well. Can you suggest one I should use, I want them to be able to easily drop photos in and articles and the articles don't necessarily have to reflect the photos

Hi Again

With "I am using the gallery one"

I'm not quite sure what you mean - are you using the gallery content source?

With having text and articles displaying in the slideshow it means an article based content source or a gallery source (the gallery source would require access to module manage)

Cheers
