Zentools

Hi Folks,

I am trying (in vain) to get my images to display in a slideshow in Zentools, howver for the life of me can't get anything to display, or find anywhere in the interface to let me import or link to the images. The only thing I can get to display are the category names.

I am using the base3 template on Joomla 3.

Any help would be great.

Thanks
Nick

Thanks for the reply Paul,

But my question is how do you attach the images. I have attached a screenshot.

I hope I am explaining this clearly but when I go into the module there does not seem to be an area to attach images, do I put them in a category, article or what?

Kind regards
Nick

The layout has the content source - the content source tab opens up different tabs

Thanks Paul,

But I am totally lost, how do I get the images to appear.

The following is where I am at.

I have uploaded images vie the media manager, they are in a folder.

I want those images to display in a slide show.

I see no area where I can link, all I have is the two windows attached, am I missing something here? All I can select is categories, and all the slideshow will display is the names of the categories no images???

Can you please help.

Cheers

Nick

Thanks for your help Paul, managed to sort it now.

just wondering, are you able to get into the CSS of the template and if so where can I find the css file.

Kind regards

Hi Nick,

You need to override existing styling using custom coding

That would be a template css change so you would need to override that style using custom css
