I have a site I helped with that uses ZenTools2 extensively. They are using carousels that can be dragged. Now they would like to also have arrows for prev and next. I was assuming that might not be compatible.

But, more importantly they would like the prev arrow to be positioned over the first image and the next arrow over the last one. They have sent me a picture which isn't the best example but it should give the idea.

Can we put arrows in circles over the images?

Can we use arrows for a caroussel that also allows users to drag the carousel to the sides.

The page they want to do this with is the homepage at www.shalomadventure.com

I am attaching a copy of the image they sent me to demonstrate the idea.

Hi Sean,

Do you have a carousel on that page?

Cheers

Hello Paul,

Yes, that page at www.shalomadventure.com is full of carousels. But, we are not letting them run automatically. Instead they can be grabbed and dragged to the left to see more. But, now I am being asked to add arrows.

The Carousels are named:
Recent Articles
Jewish Life
L'chaim
Israel
Torah
Torah Study Lessons
Stories
Shalom Adventure TV
God's World

Hi Sean,

I've had a look at this and don't think it's possible without re-working the module

zentools2.joomlabamboo.com/zentools-layout-styles/carousel

With the Prev Next options buttons it is below the items - is this enough for the client?

Cheers
Paul

Sorry I never replied. The 'client' is wanting something else but will live with what we can give them now because I do all the 'work' for them on a volunteer basis.

No worries

Best of luck with it
