What are your thoughts on using a Jquery slider (nivo to be exact) ?
I plan on integrating this with our header to display the different games we play.
Good idea or bad?
Cool, I will give it a shot if the nivo fails.
Thx
@maniacmusic Nivo slider (like all jquery plugins / addons) is working with mybb, after including jquery in headerinclude just add noconflict fix (example of headerinclude with jquery, paste it after prototype.js)
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
//Your jQuery code goes here
});
</script>
I have used Nivo before. Not exactly a bad idea, but you have to be careful about making jQuery work properly.
Johnny... I know... However I couldn't get Nivo slider working correctly,
it was partially working but that wasn't good enough.
It was glitchy.
Well, prove me wrong
.
It's
working fine on my localhost setup, many theme devs (including myself) are using jquery in themes are there aren't any problems with that.
That screenshot doesn't prove that the slider is behaving 100% correctly.
If you think it does, kudos.
Test it and chage

It's either working or not.
Edit: nivo slider content can be placed on portal page for testing purposes.
That's good news johnny, thank you !
