Hi, I am trying to install This slideshow from Dynamic Drive on my member_profile. I have an external playlist which references paths to images. I want the user to be able to enter an url for an image on their profile, and have it show up on the member page as an image. I am having an issue, however, finding the right variable to put in.
This is the code.
I would like to pull the url from a custom field on the user's profile. So
for instance. They would have pasted an image url ending in a file extension there like .jpg or .png or whatever.
But the variable is not working when I paste it like this (what my code looks like)
But it is not working. No images show up, it just breaks and loads forever.
Can anyone help?
This is the code.
{
"playlist": [
{
"url": "img/img0.jpg",
"caption": "Any caption here..."
},
{
"url": "img/img1.jpg",
"caption": "A cheetah"
},
{
"url": "img/img2.jpg",
"caption": "A sand cat kitten"
},
{
"url": "img/img3.jpg",
"caption": "Now some tigers"
}
],
"hold_time":5,
"loops":2,
"transition_time":1
}
I would like to pull the url from a custom field on the user's profile. So
{$userfields['fid24']}
for instance. They would have pasted an image url ending in a file extension there like .jpg or .png or whatever.
But the variable is not working when I paste it like this (what my code looks like)
"url": {$userfields['fid24']}",
But it is not working. No images show up, it just breaks and loads forever.
Can anyone help?
